  1. Today is based on Greetings!

    Watch this video and then let’s start seeing some posts questioning
    or practising the new Language. 

  2. I am Kurdish and i started learning Italian today , i need Italian friends
    so i can practice what i learn with them 😀 greetings

  3. My Nonna would sometimes ask me a question in Italian and I’d answer her.
    Then when she would comment on my response she’s often begin with the term,
    “Alora!” Then go on with her comment. Or she’d be telling me something that
    happened that day or on the news, and after her statement there would be
    that “Alora!” again. Funny I never asked her what it meant. In context it
    would seem to me, to be a “No wonder!” or even “Oh brother!” type
    expression. What does it actually mean, please?

  4. As concerns the overall understanding of Spanish and French you’re
    definitely right, Italian helps. On the other hand, I disagree with your
    (over)simplification of what concerns pronunciation: apart from regional
    vocab differences and the influence of dialects, accents vary quite a lot.
    If your teachers haven’t learnt the standard Italian diction, you might end
    up learning different pronunciations depending on where you study. I can’t
    really see much difference from English..

  5. It means literally lots of things.. 🙂 “So what?!” “What’s up” but it’s
    more used as a “What happened?”

  6. Haha, so true! Going to live in italian for 3 monts as of this january.
    Considering to purchase the full series to pick up a couple more words lol.

  7. Goodness, I just listened to your video, and there was that word! “Alora”.
    But that didnt sound like it would mean ‘no wonder’ or ‘oh brother’…now
    I’m really confused!

  8. “Allora!” (with dobule L) means “then” but also “come on!” It’s a way to
    begin a sentence, like “well….”
