10-Min. Italian Lesson On Articles & ‘Book Of The Week’ Offer

June 6, 2016 by Daniel

Buongiorno a tutti.

Today we have a new, free Italian lesson on the use and omission of articles which should be doable in just 10 minutes or so. Perfect for all you busy people!

And then, some relaxing music (to promote this week’s ‘Book of the Week’!)
