|  | Italiano Parlato by Teresa Powell-Smith Bonvecchiato, Adrienne
Every language has a basic vocabulary of similar words and expressions. Adrienne`s acclaimed Gimmick approach offers both the beginner and the seasoned traveler a fast and effective route to this lexicon by teaching language as it is actually spoken. Adrienne`s vocabulary lists are contemporary, practical, and uncensored-you`ll find words here that aren`t in any other language book-and they group together families of words, which makes expanding your vocabulary painless. For the more advanced student, access to the Gimmick`s expansive array of colloquial expressions will add an impossible-to-fake native fluency. Whether you`re trying to learn the rudiments ( My name is Steve ), travel with globe-trotting panache ( The Louvre has many paintings by Monet ), or get out of a prickly situation ( May I call my lawyer? ), Adrienne and the Gimmick will show you the way.
