On the Italian study skills

And, like any foreign language, Italian has its own characteristics and style, in the study requires a lot of passion and courage. In the few years of language study, I think the most prominent Italian has two main characteristics:
1, spelling easy. Save the Romance languages Italian, the total characteristics, namely, how to read how to write. Since each syllable has a specific pronunciation rules, so after a month or two serious beginner, you basically can do the proper dictation.

2, complex syntax. Another feature of Romance languages is relatively complex syntax. And English than Italian grammar multiterminal more changes, especially the verb change position, especially for beginners headache. Prototype is usually a verb in different tenses, person, etc. have different context of deformation, in particular the deformation of irregular verbs, and sometimes even confusing.
Although the Italian looked so complicated, but every year there are still two or three hundred Chinese students graduated from the Italian. Although not all of them who have continued to use the language, but with the increasing exchanges between China and Italy, domestic demand for Italian increasingly strong talent. So the rise of various types of training have, for the Italian teaching injected fresh blood. Currently only set up each year in the North outside the two training courses are divided into Beginner and intermediate classes to high quality teaching and training a lot of Italian talent.

As an Italian teacher, I recommend the practice of "listening, speaking, reading, writing," The four basic skills should pay attention to the following areas:
Listen: This is a language to learn any basic ability. The purpose of learning a foreign language and foreign exchange, while the exchange was based first of all understand what they say. Through personal experience, I feel "heard" is not a simple matter. Italians tend to speak faster, plus many dialects, people in different parts of speech, how many will bring a certain accent, dialect and local sayings, and so a moment find it difficult to determine its meaning. In Italy, many northerners speak with a falling tone, and the blunt tone and firm; central, speaking generally articulate fuzzy, I will skip some of the tail, the tone is smooth and biased with a very clear sense of cadence; thick southern accent who spoke and oral play very open, very often pronounced with a hose. All of these features need to be honed through a long time understand this. Of course, we share with a new friend when, would not have too much fear that the other's accent, as long as the focus to adapt to each other's pronunciation habits and key words in the verb to seize them, from which it probably can understand the meaning of the.

Wrote: As previously mentioned, the purpose of learning a language is communication, but communication is a two-way thing, just listen do not speak naturally impossible. So listen closely followed by the "after" is "speaking" skills. My experience is that Italian is not difficult to say, difficult is able to speak good Italian. If you speak Italian fluently and do not take the time to ensure that the Chinese accent, has a very commendable. If they could avoid some common grammatical errors committed, it is Gaorenyichou. If you have the opportunity to live long and Italians, but also learn a lot of idiomatic expressions and dialect, and occasionally add their own vocabulary, in the foreign exchanges also be a magic weapon.

Read: In the control, while listening and speaking, reading is an essential quality. Italian verb forms as varied, hence need to keep reading in the accumulation of experience, and gradually increase your reading speed and reading skills. With the development, we can find the Internet rich in reading materials. When the first contact with Italian, in reading the most taboo of "pretend to understand", it is necessary to understand precisely the meaning of each word, and as far as possible to master its use. But after some time in school, instead we should "promote" pretend to understand the state, that is, deliberately not understand the exact meaning of each word, but to focus on the master the whole article or the meaning of the whole article . Through this process, we can read an article in the fastest speed, which broaden the knowledge and language sense is helpful.

Write: writing in Italian is not easy, in the Italian learners, however, some are only fluent in Italian, it is difficult to write a decent article. I always thought that writing in Italian, not only familiar with the grammar rules, but also for the Italian national culture and a thorough understanding of language habits. Negligence or misconduct of any terms are likely to undermine the beauty of the entire article. If you every week (even daily) can be written in Italian, a number of short Essay, and then the next day to read what he has written, and singled out the error from the accumulated may adhere to it, certainly made no small progress.
