Italian (Course Levels & Overview)
About this course
The Italian language, also known by its Italian name Italiano, is the official language in Italy and one of the 4 official languages in Switzerland. While few have had the opportunity to learn the Italian language before, it is safe to say that many would have come across a couple of words that are originally Italian. These include pizza, spaghetti, and broccoli. Apart from the mouthwatering cuisine that comes to mind, the Italian language is also synonymous with its rich arts scene. In order to truly appreciate Italian architecture, Opera, Renaissance paintings, literature and music, one has to learn Italian!
With the aid of English translations, students will learn Italian dialogue, basic grammar, vocabulary and expressions. It will also illustrate communication etiquette and formalities on how to address others. Even though this class emphasises on the speaking aspect of the Italian language, students will also learn to read simple Italian phrases and dialogues.
