Fluenz Italian 1+2 offers an extremely comprehensive introduction to the fundamentals of the language. Those who have already studied some Italian will benefit from the emphasis on those areas that have traditionally proven difficult for English speakers, such as noun genders, word order, article agreement, prepositions, and gender changes that depend on whether nouns are singular or plural. The key to gaining confidence with any new language is a deep understanding of the foundational elements, and Italian 1+2 has been designed to build this confidence by focusing on these critical areas.
Useful for those who have studied Italian at some point
Many users who were already familiar with the vocabulary covered in Fluenz Italian 1+2 found the training on actually putting sentences together invaluable for allowing them to reach greater fluency with the language. The same was true for those users who had worked with programs that ban the use of English, since those can't address things like the intricacies of Italian preposition usage, noun genders, and article agreement, nor can they offer much help with techniques for actually building full sentences and relevant questions.
A list of topics covered in the program:
- Constructing sentences using past, present, and future tense verbs
- Masculine and feminine constructions, including how they can change depending on whether nouns are singular or plural
- Forming questions
- Expressing location, including asking for and
giving directions - Masculine and feminine constructions
- Use of important articles and object pronouns
- Issuing Commands
- Correctly using prepositions
- Reflexive verbs and important articles

Fluenz Italian 1 provides a comprehensive introduction to basic Italian. Those who have already studied some Italian will benefit from its common sense strategies on some of the most difficult issues learners face. For example, we train relentlessly on the agreement of articles for feminine and masculine forms, which can change depending on whether the noun is singular or plural. In this regard, Italian is more complex than even Spanish.
Other key issues that we make sure learners understand and internalize include the ways verbs and questions can be structured, pronouns, and verb conjugations—especially those typically difficult conjugations.

Those users who have tried to learn with programs that ban the use of the English will find Fluenz Italian extremely helpful. While those programs can expose learners to a lot of vocabulary, it is impossible to understand much of the complexity underlying Italian with the mere pairing of words and images. For instance, how can the verb "to be" be explained through words and images? The Fluenz Italian tutor makes sure that everything is crystal clear, from the point of view of an English-speaker, and with a view towards communication in real-world situations.

The second level of Fluenz Italian builds upon the skills developed in Italian 1, adding complexity, subtlety and range of expression to issues of location, directions, the ability to form questions and answers, and construct sentences related to time, including conjugations of past, present and future tense verbs, all in the context of real-world situations, such as going out to eat, making hotel reservations, arranging ground and air transportation, shopping, and even work related issues. Those who already know some Italian will benefit from the focus on issues that are commonly difficult for English speakers, such as noun genders, word order, article agreement, and gender changes that depend on whether nouns are singular or plural.
