Day 8: Buona Sera

“I have been impressed with the urgency of doing. Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Being willing is not enough; we must do.”

-Leonardo da Vinci

 

 

 

I have decided to take on a challenge of learning a new language… Italian.  Why Italian?  I speak German, know some Russian, have taken Spanish and French.  Out of the three languages of love, the only one I have not fallen for is Italian…until now.

The lesson started off well.  The greetings and simple questions seemed similar to the Spanish language that I had learned so many years ago, but I found that I enjoyed the sound of the Italian language. The spoken word seemed to hold more emotion and energy. The new words seemed to flow effortlessly… for now! 😉  I found myself “wanting” to converse in this language… I have a friend that is from Italy and I look forward to becoming more proficient so that I can converse in the language…

But for now, it will take baby steps such as this Good day message of “Buona Sera!”

Ciao a pesto! J
