Just like English, Italian has a wide variety of dialects, accents, and vocabularies. Italian 101 focuses on standard and polite Italian which will be understood throughout all regions.

Native female and male speakers teach you 101 words in 5 common categories: Greetings, Dining, Directions, Shopping, and Safety.

There are three progressive learning levels. In the first level, you can see and hear each word spoken slowly twice. You are encouraged to repeat it. In the second level, you see and hear each word once. And in the third level, you do not see the word at all.

In addition to the DVD, we've included a small insert with each English and corresponding Italian word. Use this insert as part of your learning or just as a reference tool when you travel.

Italian 101 is perfect if you are a beginning language learner or just want to learn a few words for your travels.

In addition to 101 critical Italian words, this DVD includes a bonus section of numbers and days of the week.
