Il Salotto Italiano- Italian Conversation!
Details
Let's meet for our weekly Italian Conversation at the Kern's Food Hall. Those interested in having a drink or some food can do so as well! You will find one of our hosts (changes weekely) not far from the main entrance at one of the tall tables as you walk in (space permitting)....look for an Italian flag sign on the table!
Our topic will change weekyl- this way you can come prepared with some vocabulary to practice. I highly recommend looking up info about expressions you can use related to the the topics, and even some general sentences you can use around them in Italian! Some of us will be beginners and others will have more language skills. We will work together to speak as MUCH Italian as possible for one hour...then the second hour English will be spoken to mingle and recap. If you are just learning and just want to listen in, you can do that, too, as you get more comfortable with the conversations.
