italian

Hello people! I'm new here. I am a great fan of the Italian language and I really want to learn it. It's an awesome language, especially for operas. I'm trying to learn alone for a year then I'll go to a teacher, cause I sing and my singing teacher says I don't have a very good accent... Anyway...

Does anyone like Italo disco? I find the sound of it really cool, it just screams 80's :D It originated in Italy but then quickly spread globally. It kind of faded in the 90's, but I still find it really good. Post here your favorite songs if you like the genre!

Most of northern Italy is very industrialised and there are several well-known brands out there. Do you prefer to purchase Italian brands or are you like me who purchase based on price rather than the country of origin? (Non-food products)

Does anyone else here use Duolingo to learn Italian? I've been using it brush up on my Spanish and also to learn Italian. It is kind of my main source for learning Italian right now because I don't have a good book and no one seems to be offering classes nearby. I really love using duolingo...
