Domain Name Com's - Software : Italian Now! 8.0

- PARA ITALIANO?
....There were no instructions, and not a lot of guidance for a new speaker. It flew right into speaking sentences after the alphabet, you should have some decoding skills to use it. Ex. La settimana ha siette giorno. Abbiamo due settimana de vacanza a Natalia. (There are seven days in a week) (We have two weeks of vacation at christmas) Decode from there. The games were hard to play and the difficulty level increases sharply. It does it's job, but only recommended for beginners with a bit of background. Not much to teach grammar wise unless you can sit and read a sixty page document for beginners.....

- Italian Now! 8.0 by Transparent Language NOT!
While this program appears to be a great program, it actually is not user friendly. It does not include any instructions, other than how to install the discs. It does not tell you how to set up the microphone or how to use it (the program or the microphone). When I ordered this I was very excited by the description on the box, but I was at a lost on how to operate it. As a professional opera singer, I bought this software to increase my fluency in Italian. I am very computer literate and also have taken Italian classes in the past, but felt I wasted money on this program.

- Fun practice but you can't really learn
I hesitated to buy this series because version 7 had such BAD reviews. They must have improved with version 8. This is great practice. Using the speaker, you get constant feedback at how well you are pronouncing the words. You can see it in various ways - your tone, accent, pitch, etc. But I must mention that this isn't for the absolute beginner. You don't actually learn proper sentence structure, etc. YOu MUST first take a class or learn through the various language tapes. I had taken a semester of Italian in college and prior to that briefly skimmed the Living Language Audio cassettes. The software is simply a tool to PRACTICE what you've learned.

There are a variety of lessons: 1) a video dialogue; 2)Conversation phrases; 3) Fundamental Italian; & 4) Survival Phrases. But they really lack in organization. Don't bother going to their HELP menu. It's generic. It isn't unique to the language you choose. It's the standard throughout the entire series. I know there is a grammer help somewhere. But again, because it isn't at all organized, I can't find it again. Don't bother with the button "Getting Started." IT doesn't lead you to a nice step-by-step guide.

But I still recommend it for those who've at least learned the language elsewhere. I tried the French one- which just proves my point. My knowledge of French is less then what I know of Italian. I was lost, because I really didn't know it. But at least I can HEAR if I can pronounce the words.

- Nothing more than Windows 3.1 software with a flashy cover
This package is available in a variety of languages, and all they do is take standard phrases and show you the translations and grammatical tense for each word. You could mass produce a hundred languages in this fashion. I speak Spanish fluently and found this method flat and insipid. Nothing is fun. There is no interactive dialogue, no games other than some silly fill in the blank sentences, and no building on previous lessons. Plus nothing is interrelated. If you see that a word is a singualar possesive you should be able to see the full conjugation and rules that apply. Not that hard with modern software. Nope, you click on a menu item called grammar and get a boring list of rules and you need to find the one that is related. This is just regurgetated Windows 3.1 software with a flashy cover. I was fooled.

- A Great Way to Learn Italian
The past years I have tried to learn Italian I bought books and books, but they never seem to work. Then I bought Italian Now and already I know how to say complete paragraphs in Italian.I do recomend it, but not to kids 12 and younger. Ciao:)!
