Ciao đź‘‹

Alessandro here — your guide to mastering real Italian.

Today’s mini-lesson is something I wish someone had taught me when I first started learning languages...

Because it would’ve saved me years of frustration.

Inside This Week’s Lessons:

MINI LESSON OF THE DAY
HOW TO SPEAK EVEN WHEN YOU GET STUCK!

Here’s the truth: Even natives forget words sometimes.

The secret isn’t knowing every word — it’s finding another way to get your message across.

Example: Let’s say you want to say: "This past Sunday, I went to the store." …but you don’t know how to say "this past Sunday" in Italian.

âś… Instead of freezing, you can rephrase it: "Two days ago, I went to the store."

In Italian:

👉 Due giorni fa sono andato al negozio. (Two days ago, I went to the store.)

  • You didn’t stop the conversation.

  • You didn’t apologize.

  • You just kept going — like a real speaker.

👉 This is exactly how conversations work in real life.

You use the words you know to build the story — and the more you practice thinking this way, the easier speaking becomes.

Inside my 30-Day Italian Challenge, I teach you exactly how to do this naturally.

Not by memorizing endless vocabulary lists, but by learning how to think and talk around what you don’t know.

Fluency is a skill you build — not a test you pass.
