I’ve been studying Italian since December after having studied it in college 25 years ago…forgot almost all of it, but it’s come back to me more easily than I thought it would. It is, as you said, a delight.
Wow! I love your Italian and I am Italian myself. Impressive ❤ I hope one day I could learn and speak German the way you speak Italian. Amazing. Thanks, this is a huge motivation!
Same! I didn't realize Italian and Spanish are so similar that I'd be able to understand Italian this well. I expect to pick out some words here and there, not understand most of what's being said
You speak Italian extremely well! In fact, I've always thought you look like an Italian or Spanish sailor. I am studying Italian this year, but not as in-depth as you. Good to know that I am not the only weirdo studying multiple languages at the same time!
Un grande abbraccio da Genova! Complimenti per il tuo italiano, davvero molto buono, e poi muovi le mani proprio come gli italiani :D Grazie per essere sempre così motivante
Great video Robin. I'm only low intermediate but it sounded perfectly intelligible to me. 8 till 9 am is my 'Italian Time', using speakly followed by 'Learn Italian with Lucrezia' I especially like her vlogs showing her daily life - she speaks so clearly and the vlogs are interesting. I would also recommend a book called 'In Altre Parole ' by Jhumpa Lahiri. It's a very honest and revealing account of her struggle to learn Italian, in dual-language format. Finally, I don't think you'll have any trouble re-connecting with Italian, it's one of those languages you can just listen to and bathe yourself in. Good Luck!!
As an Italian native, very good job and I see you have been working hard on Italian hand gestures :-) but most importantl: at what time of the day did you have that cappuccino ? We can forgive an occasional grammar mistake, but NOT A CAPPUCCINO IN THE AFTERNOON :-))
Io ho cominciato ad imparare l’taliano grazie a te nel Club di Lettura con ”L'ombra del Vento” e direi che il mio italiano si trova in un livello intermedio. È una lingua davvero bellisima e tu la parli ottimamente! Saluti dall'Argentina!
Brilliant, I’ve been studying Italian since March so it was such a cool surprise when this video started in a language I could understand. You speak so clearly and fluently - wow
Journaly user and Patreon supporter, here. I feel so bad. I haven’t been able to keep up anywhere. I changed up my exercise routine and started a different keto plan, and I’ve felt completely awful for 2-3 weeks. You inspire me, though, @Robin MacPherson! Languages aren’t something you can just ‘“power through,” but I’ll never get far enough into my 2 current non-English languages, to get started on a 3rd, if I don’t figure out how to rearrange my schedule to deal with these sleep cycle fluctuations that keto seems to bring (I’ve got a couple of genetic disorders that are a factor in how any diet impacts me). Italian sounds lovely and attainable, the way you speak it. Maybe because it isn’t a mile a minute? It sounds sooo relaxing! 😍
Ciao Robin! Sono una ragazza italiana e sto studiando qualche lingua a scuola (inglese, russo e tedesco). Ti seguo da poco e avrei voluto scoprire il tuo canale prima perché penso che i tuoi video mi avrebbero potuto aiutare molto in passato! Sono molto curiosa di sapere come continuerà il tuo percorso con l’italiano, dato che lo parli già molto bene. Continua così💪🏻💪🏻
I started learning Italian about 2 years ago, I'm not consistent but I love it. I've only ever visited Milan and Monza, about 18 years ago. Very interested to follow your progress :-)
L'italiano era la prima lingua che ho imparato, quindi occupa un posto speciale nel mio cuore. Sono andato in Italia per vacanze anch'io, e è veramente un paese bellissimo
Riesci sempre a trasmetterci la tua passione per le lingue mostrandoti per quello che sei attraverso conversazioni spontanee, non fingendo di essere perfetto quando parli una lingua straniera. Ci fai vedere che gli errori grammaticali non sono un difetto ma un punto di partenza per migliorare sempre di più! Bravo Robin 😌❤️ You're the best!
Awesome! Italian is my language for 2023! I would love to hear how your other Romance languages play into your Italian. I speak Spanish, French, and Portuguese so I am looking for good material to launch me from those different starting points. Ideas?
I never studied Italian but because of my Spanish studies I found that I was able to understand a few words in this video. In the city in which I live now there is or there was an Italian Meetup but what is so surprising here is that there is no Spanish Meetup but there are many Mexicans here. I don´t know if the Italian group is actually meeting now because of COVID-19. I would like to get back to my French sometime. It has been about 46 years since I last studied French and that was in college and not being exposed to it I have forgot most of what little I knew back then.
Molto bravo, solo un consiglio: in italiano non si dice "cosa è passato" (come si direbbe in spagnolo "qué ha pasado") ma si dice "cosa è successo". So che a volte è difficile distinguere. In ogni caso molto molto bravo
Being honest I have always wanted to speak Italian and learning. every time I go for it and learning, but every time I cut off on learning Italian. have no idea why, but will be happy if there's someone welling to help me in my Italian learning journey.
Aaaaw I just came home from my first vacation in Italy - amazing country. In restaurants and at the hotel they only spoke italian even though they understood english just fine 😅 really nice people I have to much to learn now but Italien is definitely on my list. Good luck with it 💪
I don't usually comment on RUclips videos, but this time I'll. I'm quite content with me for understanding everything you said in Italian without looking at the subtitles, it means that I'm getting good in Italian since I started learning the language. You are excellent! Italian is such a beautiful language, and it is so close to my native language (French). I really love Italian. My Italian is literally better than my German - this is a very sad fact, but well I'm hoping to get better.
Hi Robin, I learnt a decent bit of Spanish and I would love to learn some Italian too. But could you perhaps do a video on how to keep these two languages apart if you want to have both in your life? I understand one can confuse them. Regards (and blessings) Eleana (South Africa)
Ho imparato l'italiano quando ero piccola e ho vissuto in Italia, ma ho dimenticato tantissimo. Plus I'm not sure what was dialect and what was slang, and my grammar was never great. Mia figlia (ha 12 anni) vuole imparare l'italiano, così sto imparando di nuovo.
Che bello che ti immergi nell'Italiano! Come sei riuscito a capire l'accento Salentino/Pugliese? Di recente ho passato due settimine là a Tricase e non ho capito quasi niente, almeno delle generazioni più avanzate. Il mancamento dei consonanti ha fatto molto difficile capire i suoceri Italiani. 😅

I'd like to speak French and German the way you speak Italian 😍🤩. Good job really!!

I could understand most of what you've been saying although I don't know any Italian 🇮🇹

Parli veramente bene...complimenti🙂
So happy you get to study my language again! Buona fortuna!

Que lindo poder entender sin saber Italiano! Wow que gran inspiración como siempre 🙌🏽
Ohh finalmente l'italiano, Robin! Potrei ascoltarti parlare italiano per ore! Mi piace molto anche la tua nuova camicia. Un abbraccio! :)
That’s great ! I’m learning Italian too...beginner. And I love it so much😀
Un caro saluto da Genova 💕 il tuo italiano è meraviglioso 🤩
Aw grazie mille Alessia 🥰 Un caro saluto da Bristol anche a te! Non vedo l'ora di rivedere la tua città ❤️
You must show us your new Italian tracking sheet

I have to comment s I like Lucrezia too, and I literally am trying to finish JLahiri's book.

Non male, soprattutto hai una buona pronuncia! Buono studio :)
Finalmente 🥰, grazie dal cuore, aspettavo questo video in italiano da tanto tempo. Che bello sentirti parlare nella lingua più bella 🤗

My favorite app EVER is Kleo. I think it even got an award from Apple.
Sounds like you still speak Italian quite well. I'm currently studying Italian myself, so I look to watching your journey in the future.
Bravo, Robin! ❤
Ciao!! Io sono spagnola, sto imparando l’italiano da 2 anni, e non lo parlo bene quanto te!!
Congratulazioni! Parli italiano benissimo 😀

Buonnasera! Io non parlo l'italiano ma Io capisco molto ... Congratulazione per questa puntata...!
I am going to focus on Italian very soon
Any progress? That was so interesting 🙂 would love to follow your journey with the Italian language.

Ti consiglio di fare un video con Roberto dal canale Un Italiano vero su RUclips - sarebbe bello vedervi insieme 🥰
Molto bravo, solo un consiglio: in italiano non si dice "cosa è passato" (come si direbbe in spagnolo "qué ha pasado") ma si dice "cosa è successo". So che a volte è difficile distinguere. In ogni caso molto molto bravo

Grazie mille Margherita! ❤️

Ho imparato l'italiano quando ero piccola e ho vissuto in Italia, ma ho dimenticato tantissimo. Plus I'm not sure what was dialect and what was slang, and my grammar was never great. Mia figlia (ha 12 anni) vuole imparare l'italiano, così sto imparando di nuovo.
Forza!!!!
Hi, When you live in a Speaking country of the language you are learning, what is your main focus? Thanks
You can't do everything Robin, although it is nice to try!
Sei molto bravo in Italiano. Se hai voglia di chiaccierare, mi farebbe piacere. Sei una persona molto attiva
Che bello che ti immergi nell'Italiano! Come sei riuscito a capire l'accento Salentino/Pugliese? Di recente ho passato due settimine là a Tricase e non ho capito quasi niente, almeno delle generazioni più avanzate. Il mancamento dei consonanti ha fatto molto difficile capire i suoceri Italiani. 😅
I thought this guy was Italian. Where's he from? And his accent too?
E questo è anche eccellente. ruclips.net/video/FiEVKwc-b_E/видео.html
Is this due to my comment in live chat in your last livestream requesting you to speak some Italian??
He made a post on patreon a day before the livestream
