Errata-corrige

March 25, 2022 by Daniel

Buondì. Many thanks to Tim, who wrote this week to point out a problem with our newest, ‘easy reader’ ebook, Colpa della terra, Libro 1, Colpa della terra. Anyone who’s already bought it will want to know this, and maybe others too, as it concerns the dreaded ‘pronomi’! Tim wrote (in italiano, bravo Tim!): C’è […]

D.I.Y.

March 23, 2022 by Daniel

Buondì. Last week, I think it was, I was asking my class of Italian adults learning English what they thought the most popular free time activities were in Britain, where I come from. Their guesses included going to the cinema and the theatre, along with exhibitions, and reading of course – that is to say […]

Tòt reasons why you should never clean your home

March 18, 2022 by Daniel

Buondì. We have guests coming, so I’ve been cleaning out the fireplace in our living room, something I remember watching my gran doing each morning when I was a small child (she used to wrap the ashes in the previous day’s Daily Mirror), but that I haven’t done myself for…. maybe five years? We don’t […]

‘Listening’ or ‘Listening Practice’? (Do at least one.)

March 16, 2022 by Daniel

Buondì. Kathryn emailed to ask about the difference betweeen ‘listening’ and ‘listening practice’. Is there one? If so, what? ‘Listening practice’ has a goal or goals which are differerent to those associated with listening that isn’t ‘practice’.

Donkey shot!

March 14, 2022 by Daniel

Italian easy reader ebook - Don Chisciotte della Mancia - cover image

Buondì. When you learn, and use, a foreign language, there are always things that will floor you. Sometimes it’s the same thing, again and again! For example, when I have heard, over the decades, my Italian wife talking about Donkey shot. First I thought she was going crazy, or that I’d misheard. What did donkeys […]

About understanding, tra virgolette

March 11, 2022 by Daniel

Buondì. Driving our small guest to her kindergarten on the other side of our city each weekday morning is an opportunity to listen to the radio, a station that combines monologues on political themes with ‘rock’, so the Rolling Stones, Bruce, and plenty of newer stuff that I’m not familiar with, but enjoy anyway. Music […]

“Ho già dato!”

March 9, 2022 by Daniel

Buondì. Someone wrote to me this week asking if I had plans to offer EasyItalianNews.com also for other languages – he provided a list of those he’s learning. It would be great if we could do the same thing, that is to say, produce 150-odd FREE bulletins each and every year, for this language, and […]
