..good pronunciation phonetics but not so many words as I sometimes need. But I also spent over a week in Casale Monf. near Milano with Italian friends who were a good aid in learning. I also speak a mite of Spanish which is similar but have to work not to use Spanish sounds in my Italian pronunciation. After Saturday I'll be in Venezia for almost a week. Then back to Germany for a couple days, then Amsterdam for another night and home. I like to spend a lot of time in places to get the feel for living there..not me, others. I have to get home to finish the Jaunty project so I can be a boater next season!!

So far, so good.
