Antonio, a longtime LearnItalianPod VIP subscriber, responded to our survey making a very good point. He said: “When it comes to start and keep a conversation in Italian going, that’s where I get frustrated. Most of the time, I don’t know how to start a conversation, and I end up asking “yes or no” kind of questions, so the conversation is over before it begins. Add to it that when Italians speak, they speak fast! - Or, to try to be nice with me, they speak English! I want to speak Italian with them!” - No worries, Antonio, as LearnItalianPod comes to rescue! So, let’s find out how to ask someone to speak slower, to keep speaking in Italian, and finally, let’s learn and practice a few “icebreakers” that are sure to keep the conversation going. Enjoy!
