🇮🇹 Going to Italy in the near future. Exciting!

Does anyone have recommendations for learning to read/ speak Italian? Hopefully not AI-cooked like Duolingo

@Possiblydrew Buy your favorite (children's) book, that one you've read a thousand times, in Italian

@Possiblydrew @CiaraNi I really like using the Pimsleur app. I’ve been using it to improve my French. 25 minutes a day. I do it during my runs, mumbling in French as I go.

@Possiblydrew babble.com seems to be recommended often as a good alternative

@Possiblydrew Damn autocorrect

@Possiblydrew You could try tandem.net, the free version on the pc works well but not on the smartphone though.

@Possiblydrew I'm using a combination of books, immersion and yes, also a little bit of Duolingo on my way to work.

@Possiblydrew I’m a big fan of Pimsleur. It’s not free, but I learn more than I do with adds that gamify things and only drill vocab.

@SonjaS this is such a good idea!
