Italian

The volume is part of the Contact course. Contact is a multi-level course (from A1 to B2, according to the indications of the Common European Framework) for young-adult and adult foreign students who attend Italian courses in Italy or abroad. It is built following a pragmatic-communicative approach, without however neglecting the development and systematic learning of grammar. It presents a rich selection of authentic texts, chosen for their content interest, and for their sociolinguistic variety and textual genre: each text is explored in analysis and re-use paths graded by difficulty. Information on Italian civilization and culture is highlighted in the texts, in the Comparison between cultures boxes and in the Dossier sections. The volume closes with a section of Strategies for learning, cards with advice and exercises for each of the linguistic skills and for memorizing and systematizing the lexicon learned, and an appendix of functional and grammatical synthesis.

What is the hardest challenge you’ve faced as a student of the Italian language?

You can work hard on your grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation, but being able to communicate naturally isn’t easy.

In fact, the toughest part of learning Italian is knowing how to speak like a native.

Most textbooks are made to teach you the traditional rules and structures of a language and are great for getting around the grammar and spelling questions you may have.

However, how many of them provide you the tools necessary to have a common conversation with a best friend or someone you’ve just met? Not many at all.

Are you trying to learn Italian – but can’t find the right reading material?

Do you find traditional textbooks boring, and need something new?

Italian students regularly have to go through the toughest experiences to find proper reading material that isn’t too tough or too tedious for them — as language teachers, we know this.

This is why we’ve created a second Italian Short Stories for Beginners to ensure that young and old students at the entry level of learning can have yet another chance to polish their Italian tongue and survive to tell the tale!

Twenty easy-to-read, entertaining and interesting stories await inside, along with the best tools to help you practice once you’re done reading each tale. Our book will ensure you not only can read something that will expand your knowledge on Italian, but that you will understand and be able to pick it apart piece by piece in your quest for learning.

Verbs play a vitally important role in every sentence, and the selection of a particular verb and a specific tense has a great impact on meaning. To help you understand why a certain tense works in a given situation, Practice Makes Perfect: Italian Verb Tenses provides clear, concise explanations, combined with plenty of practice to develop language skills. And this new edition is accompanied by audio recordings, available online and via app, that will build greater confidence in your ability to communicate.

Alberto is the head of the post office in a small town in Brianza and in order to please his wife Silvia, who would like to move to Milan, he is willing to do anything: even to pretend to be an invalid to get on the list and get a job in the big metropolis. His trick, however, is discovered, and as punishment Alberto finds himself being transferred to a small branch in Campania. Resigned to his destiny, Alberto sets off alone towards his new destination, expecting only decay, streets invaded by waste and slack colleagues. So, when he finds himself in front of wonderful and available people and a new friend, Mattia, who tries in every way to make him feel at ease, Alberto seems to be living in a dream. But how to tell Silvia and friends who have begun to see it in a new light?
