Written to allow those learning Italian or brushing up on their skills to study on their own at their own pace, this guide acquaints readers with the basic elements of Italian grammar and
vocabulary, gradually giving them the skills and facility to speak, read, write, and understand the language. Unlike most other texts, it focuses on grammar and situations relevant to traveling
in Italian-speaking countries and to situations germane to everyday life in Italy. Includes a pronunciation guide, appendixes with grammar references, and an extensive glossary.
