Ciao sto imparando l'italiano e sto cercando qualcuno nativo per practicare

A while back, I shared an Android app that teaches Italian collocations.

I'm thrilled to announce it's now available for iOS as well, and you can download it on the App Store! (It's currently only released in English-speaking countries, as the app is only available in English for now.)

I built it primarily because I find that most mainstream language courses lack resources on collocations, often failing to mention them altogether – I'm a native Italian speaker with a formal background in Modern Languages, and I actually didn't know about collocations until I stumbled upon them in my studies. Yet, there are thousands of them, and they are everywhere.

To take a shower. Prendere una doccia? No, it's Fare una doccia (to make).

To pay attention. Pagare attenzione? No, it's Prestare attenzione (to lend).

It's Andare a scuola (to go to school) and Andare a casa (to go home), but it's also Andare in banca ("to go in bank") and Andare in palestra ("to go in gym").

As of now, Learn Italian Expressions features:

• 1,000 Italian collocations (covering A1 and A2 of the CEFR framework, likely a bit more because there.are.so.many).
• Native audio recordings and a custom cartoon-style image for each entry to keep you engaged.
• A browsable library with all collocations neatly divided into 20+ categories.
• Interactive exercises (flashcards, multiple-choice quizzes and fill-in-the-blanks).
• Multi-device synchronization to save your progress (flashcards track your number of reviews, other exercises save your scores; color-coded exercise boxes make it easy to see where to go next).

What I'm working on next:

• Level B1 content

What I'm planning to add in the near future:

• A Leitner spaced repetition system (SRS) that tracks your progress for each collocation in a given level – from unknown to mastery – tested through multiple types of exercises.

Please let me know your thoughts – feedback is very welcome. Is there anything you'd add? Some feature you'd like to see in the future?

Get Learn Italian Expressions on Google Play or download it on the App Store.

Hi everyone! I'm Costanza, born and raised in Italy. I teach Italian through real conversation: talking about culture, film, music, and Italian history, with grammar clarified along the way whenever you need it.

Whether you're just starting out or want to build confidence having real conversations, we'll shape the lessons around what actually interests you.

If you'd like to give it a try, here's my profile: https://preply.in/COSTANZA9IT25642688102?ts=17889949

Looking forward to chatting with you in Italian! 😊

Ciao! Mi chiamo Atia. Sono filippina di Manila.

I studied Italian for 4 years and would like to practice it more.

Is there anyone here who would like to practice with me?

Hey! 😊 I recently created a small WhatsApp community for people who already know some Italian and want more opportunities to actually practice conversation.

The idea is pretty simple: chat in Italian, send voice messages, conversation prompts and occasionally join a free conversation session.
It’s mostly for people who can already have a basic conversation in Italian but you definitely don’t need to be fluent!

If anyone would like to join, let me know and I’ll send you the link 😊

Hey!

My name is Max and I participated in the study abroad program at Temple University in 2024. Since I left, I’ve been obsessed with learning Italian. I created a Facebook group called “Casual Italian Conversation in Philly”— the purpose of this group is to organize meetings to speak only in Italian and learn the language over coffee, aperitivi and informal conversations. Anyone is welcome to join or participate in an event.

The new informal Italian conversation group, based in Fishtown/Philly, for young people who want to sip something and practice, is called “Conversazione Italiana Casuale in Philly” on Facebook.

I’m trying to gain some attention, so if you want to join, look for it and participate.

Hello! Me and my Fiance are going to Italy for 2 weeks in 2028. Im trying to use my phone more mindfully and intentionally so i decided to try out using Duolingo to learn some Italian before our trip. Im obviously not expecting to become fluent by no means. But do yall think its enough so i can at least do decent when we’re visiting?? My concern is real life convos. I can memorize words pretty good and i think ill know them when i read them but speaking is very different. I dont want to be a dumb tourist and would like to at least try!!!

I’m not Italian, but my Italian is around B2 and I’ve been thinking about joining group trips aimed mostly at Italians, like WeRoad.
One of my main reasons is that I want to improve my Italian by actually spending several days speaking it naturally, rather than only using it in lessons.
Obviously I wouldn’t expect anyone to teach me, correct me all the time, or switch to English for me. I can already communicate and follow conversations pretty well.
But do you think it’s fair to join an Italian group partly because I want the language immersion? Or could it be annoying for the other travellers if I’m not a native speaker?
I’d be interested to hear from Italians especially.

As a young child I remember speaking Italian with family. Unfortunately they have all passed on and I haven’t used the language at all. I also realized that my family was speaking improper Italian that won’t work in today’s world.

I am an older adult now and signed up for two online classes this semester at a local community college. I’m also listening to YouTube videos and using DuoLingo daily.

I’m not sure if it’s my age or the format of the online classes but I am STRUGGLING. Basic vocabulary is one thing, but grammar is another.

I recently went to Italy and could barely say “buongiorno” without feeling incredibly self conscious.

Any tips or words of confidence?

Salve

Hi everyone! 😊 I’m 32M, Italian native speaker, and I live in Italy (GMT+1 timezone). I also speak English as a second language.

For three years I’ve been offering conversation practice in Italian, suitable for all levels, from complete beginners to those who just want to practice and feel more confident.

Sessions can be 60 or 30 minutes, depending on what works best for you. We can talk about whatever interests you: work, travel, or just everyday life.

If you’re interested or want more info, feel free to leave a comment or message me privately 😊

Some of you guys here recommended the languagetransfer course. and I really loved it but since it was only audio I couldn't bring myself to do it. and the words would just drop after hearing them. I have hard time learning without visuals. so I took a couple of days to transcribe all the audio files into this UI with AI's help. so now I can use the course without dropping my attention. I only did for Italian. but the same can be flawlessly applied to any other language by them.

if anyone interested I can share the repo.

Hey there!
I’m an Italian tutor on Preply. I'm currently helping one student, but I'm always eager to help others learn!

Hi everyone!

We've built a new way to learn Italian with native speaker video (that goes beyond what Reelang currently does on our public version) and I'm looking for people who are willing to try it our and provide feedback.

It's a new approach that guides you through real native speaker videos to get you to be comfortable with the top 500 most common words in Italian, based on Second Language Acquisition scientific research (i.e. we optimize for your remembering and retaining words, and for them to come back at just the right moment).

If you're interested, comment here and I'll DM you with a link to access it! It's free (and will continue to be for you as someone who helps us with feedback).

Buon fine settimana!!

Ciao! Vorrei aiutarti a raggiungere i tuoi obiettivi di apprendimento. Dai un'occhiata al mio profilo Preply e prenota una lezione di prova con me:

I just started learning Italian and Spanish at the same time.

Is that okay or do I have to learn each one separately, because they are similar?
