5) finding Italian dictionaries, sites about how to conjugate Italian verbs, Rome from satellite pictures, interesting websites about Italian TV channels, about Italian newspapers, about archaeological interest websites, …

6) practising your Italian in chat or in an English-Italian forum,

you have to visit my site “HOW TO LEARN ITALIAN”:

http://xoomer.alice.it/learn_italian

If you are well skilled in Italian language you can practice the current spoken language visiting another website of mine: “ESSERE IN DUE” (to be two): http://xoomer.alice.it/eventually an Italian website about the couple life. You can find there 42 stories about different ways of being a couple. Stories are in modern current spoken Italian.

The philosophy of my websites is: Nothing commercial here but only friendly! According to the philosophy of this sites I listed in my pages only the websites without commercial references, like official sites of the Archeological Superintendence or personal sites with nothing commercial. That's a rigid choice but it's my choice: get in touch with people interested in Italian culture, in order to exchange ideas, to learn reciprocal languages, only on a friendly base.
