Italian, Sunday Shout-out · October 4, 2009

Sunday Shout-out: CyberItalian.com

 

Benvenuti to the first Sunday Shout-out of October! This month’s theme is Italian, and throughout the month I’ll be spotlighting websites related to learning Italian. Since finding Italian classes or lessons can be difficult depending on where you live, I’ll be sharing some of my favorites for learning Italian online. I’ll also shine the spotlight on websites and blogs that teach and inspire me to learn more about the Italian language. I know many of you reading are fellow students and lovers of the Italian language. I hope you enjoy this month’s theme, and are encouraged by all the different ways you can incorporate the Italian language into your daily life.

This week’s Shout-out goes to the Italian language learning website CyberItalian.com. They have a fun, innovative and flexible learning program offered online with different options depending on what type of instruction you would like, including Self-Study Courses, Tutored Courses and Private Lessons. Not sure where to start? You can take their Placement Test to see what level you should begin at with their classes.

Not sure if an online study course is right for you? Everyone learns in a different way, and it’s hard to tell in advance whether a program will click with you or not. I’m kicking off this month’s Sunday Shout-outs series with CyberItalian.com, because I just learned that they are offering a free Beginner Self-Study course now through October 9th. What a deal! I wanted to share this opportunity with all of my readers who are looking for a great way to begin learning Italian, or for anyone interested in brushing up on the basics. Plus, it’s a great opportunity to see all the features of the CyberItalian.com website and learn if it’s the right match for you. I’ve signed up for the free course to do just that!

    Ooooh! What a great post! I love your topic this month. I am going to do their placement test and see how much damage has been done in the year and a half since I have been in Italy… crossing my fingers! I hope I haven't lost too much of the Italian language skills that I worked so hard for.

    Ciao Amber! So happy you enjoyed the post. I debated about whether readers would be interested in a learning Italian theme. But when I saw the free course offer I just had to share it! Great idea to brush up on your Italian so you don't lose all your hard work! Have fun!

    Ciao Una! Thanks for sharing that link! I was really hoping readers would share other websites and learning techniques that they have discovered. That's great that you can take Italian classes where you live! I think that's the best approach for sure. In bocca al lupo! 🙂

    Hi Laura, just back from our first class. We have a lovely teacher from Italy, (Rome I think). We had great fun spelling out our names in Italian and exchanging telephone numbers. Very practical lesson. Also the tutor has a good sense of humour which does help. Lots of homework to do for next week. Hope I'll be able for this!

    ciao

    Ciao Una! Thanks for the update! Your class sounds like so much fun, and it makes me wish I could take a class as well. Having the interaction with a teacher would be great, especially a fun teacher! Enjoy your class! 🙂

A spectacular view of a truly spectacular place as A spectacular view of a truly spectacular place as I flew out of Naples yesterday morning. A little bit delayed due to Winter Storm Olive in the midwest, but I was greeted in central Nebraska by blue skies and flocks of Sandhill cranes and snow geese. “Oh, to love what is lovely” as Mary Oliver wrote about that joyful experience of seeing snow geese golden in a sunny sky. ✨

Non Amalfi Coast question. Do you wake up in the m Non Amalfi Coast question. Do you wake up in the morning with music or a song in your head? I do nearly every morning and it’s curious to me what shows up. Usually it’s something I’ve been listening to, but sometimes it’s really random, like someone’s left the music room door slightly ajar in the brain. This morning it was a jaunty version of “Loch Lomond” from the 1940s sung by Maxine Sullivan. (You’d think that would be from the random category but I actually listened to it yesterday.) So that’s what was swinging about in my head as I took a walk early this morning. 🎶

Musing On The Roaring Ocean
by Robert Burns

Musing on the roaring ocean, 
Which divides my love and me; 
Wearying heav’n in warm devotion, 
For his weal where’er he be. 

Hope and Fear’s alternate billow 
Yielding late to Nature’s law, 
Whispering spirits round my pillow, 
Talk of him that’s far awa. 

Ye whom sorrow never wounded, 
Ye who never shed a tear, 
Care-untroubled, joy-surrounded, 
Gaudy day to you is dear. 

Gentle night, do thou befriend me, 
Downy sleep, the curtain draw; 
Spirits kind, again attend me, 
Talk of him that’s far awa!
