From Michael San Filippo, your Guide to Italian
Caro Lettore,

Welcome to this week's edition of your About.com Italian Language Newsletter! Read the next installment in one woman's adventure in fluency. Wanting a social life, our guest author Bonnie struggles to master her cell phone and text messaging in Italian. It seems as if SMS is the new way of writing and communicating in Italian.

In the About.com Italian Language forums there's a debate on whether Italians speak louder then English speakers, and a community member wonders if his personality changes when speaking Italian. There's a lesson on pronunciation, and a conjugation table for the verb conoscere. Plus, listen to an audio phrasebook with vocabulary related to family (la famiglia).
