Really dirty...
~ Written on Apr 15, 2009. out of users found this review helpful.

It is a very usefull book and it is so dirty that I have to wash my hands each time after reading a chapter from the book.
I only hope that my practical usage of the material learned in this book will not earn me a black eye or two there in Italy!

Not what I thought

Its true that this book has a ton of naughty little words and sayings for people to use. However, I am just starting to learn Italian and I thought that this book would help the user out. For instance I thought the book would explain how to say the words. There is a pronunciation page on page 4, but that's not what I was looking for. What I really wanted was the Italian word, how to break it down and then the meaning of the word. Alas! I did not find that in this book. For those who can speak Italian then this will be useful to them. Novices may want to look elsewhere.

LOL

You will probably not need this book, but you will learn some Italian Slang and Vulgarities that will make people thing you are Italian.

Will really keep you interested!

It's an excellent book to learn all the slangs and bad words in Italian. It's easy reading and enjoyable. Not too difficult to remember the words. The author has done a great job trying to capture the student's interest and enthusiasm. Even the native Italians can benefit from it, because some of the words and expressions are quite new to them, particularly to the old generation. For some reason we tend to remember the slangs and cuss words better than ordinary and literally work. I cannot wait to jump to the next chapter and pick my curiosiy at the next topic. I highly recommend it...

Good book

There are a lot of useful and colorful expressions listed. They are grouped into meaningful sections. This is a good book to add to your library.
