My Italian roommates in Tuscany rolled their eyes at me for it... many Italian's feel he's too commercialized and would go instead for other artists they felt had the soul of an artist. I still love Eros :)<BR/><BR/>As for Italian grammar, there is one thin, small, tiny helpful book that made my learning curve jump exponentially when I was learning Italian about 7 years ago and you should be able to find it without a problem. It's called English Grammar For Students of Italian. It basically lines up English and Italian grammar side by side and simplifies it. I had many "Aha!" moments with that one!.<BR/><BR/>I only had one year to learn Italian before I moved to Italy and songs saved me! :) by knowing what the lyrics meant, each time I heard a song it reinforced grammar and vocab and I felt fine when I arrived in Italy :)<BR/><BR/>Good luck... no matter how we look at it, learning a language is juuuust a ton of work!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18861479.post-23687403165639051312007-07-12T15:07:00.000+02:002007-07-12T15:07:00.000+02:00shelley - grazie. things seem to back on track wit...shelley - grazie. things seem to back on track with the movie this week. phew.<BR/><BR/>cherrye - Non mi piace grammar!! <BR/><BR/>chris & erin - so far the review is going well.nyc/caribbean ragazzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09370358466131415888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18861479.post-2580068625698683252007-07-11T22:54:00.000+02:002007-07-11T22:54:00.000+02:00I'm glad you're liking Better Reading Italian - I ...I'm glad you're liking Better Reading Italian - I remember you saying that you were going to get it.
