Description

This guide to Italian usage provides expert advice for students who have already mastered the basics of the language. It focuses on areas of vocabulary and grammar that often cause difficulties for English speakers, as well as style, register, and politeness in writing and speech.

Written with careful consideration for contemporary Italian linguistics, this book explores the country's evolving language landscape, including new varieties emerging in modern Italy. The influence of dialects on Italian development is also acknowledged. With two indexes to help you navigate its content, this reference is ideal for learners seeking to refine their understanding of the Italian language.
