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 last installment in one woman's adventure in fluency. Enjoying her last night in Rome, Bonnie receives a compliment and makes a promise to return to Italy.

In the About.com Italian Language forums a member wonders about the derivation of the nickname for the Italian soccer club Juventus (La Vecchia Signora), and a discussion about Italian singer Eros Ramazzotti. There's a lesson on the definite article (l'articolo determinativo), and a conjugation table for the verb considerare. Plus, listen to an audio phrasebook with vocabulary related to travel by boat (a bordo).
