Looking for people to practice Italian 🇮🇹

Upvotes

Hey! 😊 I recently created a small WhatsApp community for people who already know some Italian and want more opportunities to actually practice conversation.

The idea is pretty simple: chat in Italian, send voice messages, conversation prompts and occasionally join a free conversation session.
It’s mostly for people who can already have a basic conversation in Italian but you definitely don’t need to be fluent!

If anyone would like to join, let me know and I’ll send you the link 😊

Casual Italian Conversation in Philly

Upvotes

Hey!

My name is Max and I participated in the study abroad program at Temple University in 2024. Since I left, I’ve been obsessed with learning Italian. I created a Facebook group called “Casual Italian Conversation in Philly”— the purpose of this group is to organize meetings to speak only in Italian and learn the language over coffee, aperitivi and informal conversations. Anyone is welcome to join or participate in an event.

The new informal Italian conversation group, based in Fishtown/Philly, for young people who want to sip something and practice, is called “Conversazione Italiana Casuale in Philly” on Facebook.

I’m trying to gain some attention, so if you want to join, look for it and participate.

Is Doulingo good for traveling?

Upvotes

Hello! Me and my Fiance are going to Italy for 2 weeks in 2028. Im trying to use my phone more mindfully and intentionally so i decided to try out using Duolingo to learn some Italian before our trip. Im obviously not expecting to become fluent by no means. But do yall think its enough so i can at least do decent when we’re visiting?? My concern is real life convos. I can memorize words pretty good and i think ill know them when i read them but speaking is very different. I dont want to be a dumb tourist and would like to at least try!!!

Is it fair to travel with Italians mainly to practice my Italian?

Upvotes

I’m not Italian, but my Italian is around B2 and I’ve been thinking about joining group trips aimed mostly at Italians, like WeRoad.
One of my main reasons is that I want to improve my Italian by actually spending several days speaking it naturally, rather than only using it in lessons.
Obviously I wouldn’t expect anyone to teach me, correct me all the time, or switch to English for me. I can already communicate and follow conversations pretty well.
But do you think it’s fair to join an Italian group partly because I want the language immersion? Or could it be annoying for the other travellers if I’m not a native speaker?
I’d be interested to hear from Italians especially.

Older Person Relearning Italian

Upvotes

As a young child I remember speaking Italian with family. Unfortunately they have all passed on and I haven’t used the language at all. I also realized that my family was speaking improper Italian that won’t work in today’s world.

I am an older adult now and signed up for two online classes this semester at a local community college. I’m also listening to YouTube videos and using DuoLingo daily.

I’m not sure if it’s my age or the format of the online classes but I am STRUGGLING. Basic vocabulary is one thing, but grammar is another.

I recently went to Italy and could barely say “buongiorno” without feeling incredibly self conscious.

Any tips or words of confidence?

I made a visual + quiz version of Language Transfer Italian for people who struggle with audio-only learning

Post image
Upvotes

Some of you guys here recommended the languagetransfer course. and I really loved it but since it was only audio I couldn't bring myself to do it. and the words would just drop after hearing them. I have hard time learning without visuals. so I took a couple of days to transcribe all the audio files into this UI with AI's help. so now I can use the course without dropping my attention. I only did for Italian. but the same can be flawlessly applied to any other language by them.

if anyone interested I can share the repo.

Looking for A1/A2 Italian learners to try out a new video-based learning approach!

Upvotes

Hi everyone!

We've built a new way to learn Italian with native speaker video (that goes beyond what Reelang currently does on our public version) and I'm looking for people who are willing to try it our and provide feedback.

It's a new approach that guides you through real native speaker videos to get you to be comfortable with the top 500 most common words in Italian, based on Second Language Acquisition scientific research (i.e. we optimize for your remembering and retaining words, and for them to come back at just the right moment).

If you're interested, comment here and I'll DM you with a link to access it! It's free (and will continue to be for you as someone who helps us with feedback).

Buon fine settimana!!

Italian and Spanish language

I just started learning Italian and Spanish at the same time.

Is that okay or do I have to learn each one separately, because they are similar?

Looking for beginner Italian learners to test a different approach 🇮🇹

Upvotes

Hi everyone! For the past few months, I’ve been building a new language-learning app, starting with Italian, and I’m looking for a small group of learners to test it for a week.

I studied Applied Mathematics at Yale and have spent years learning languages myself. I wanted to experiment with a more construction-based, verb-focused approach to language learning.

BLOCKS is built around one principle: learning a language means gradually becoming able to construct more and more of your own thoughts.

Instead of moving through isolated vocabulary and grammar exercises, BLOCKS treats the language as one accumulating system. Verbs form the backbone: you learn the expressions they open up, discover the grammar that lets you combine them, and repeatedly use what you already know to construct increasingly richer thoughts. Each new block builds on the previous ones, gradually expanding what you can express rather than giving you another set of things to memorize.

There are no points, streaks, or gamification loops. The focus is on construction, repetition, and cumulative progress — building a strong foundation that steadily increases your expressive power.

The Italian course is now ready for its first real test, and I’m looking for beginner/A1–A2 Italian learners willing to use it for about a week and then give me genuinely honest feedback: what you enjoyed, what bored or confused you, whether you wanted to keep going, and what you would change.

If this sounds interesting, comment here or send me a DM and I’ll send you access. 🇮🇹

What makes you want to practise Italian with friends?

Upvotes

I’m curious to know, when studying Italian, like other languages, there’s so many resources available like apps and books and you end up studying these on your own. But learning a language should be more social as you’re learning how to communicate with others.

What resources do you use to make sure you’re practising with other people or with friends?
