Before I got to campus freshman year, I would have never guessed that I would end up with an Italian minor. I had studied Spanish, French, and Latin in the past, but I guess my love for Italian food convinced me to try something different. Over the last couple years, studying Italian has taught me more than just grammar&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">I have learned more about world history than I ever thought possible, I read countless pieces of famous Italian literature, and I met some pretty cool people as well (hi Chiara!) That being said, I know how daunting Italian can be especially in the first few semesters. I can&#8217;t even tell you how frustrated I was with reading in my first semester&#8211;&nbsp; I couldn&#8217;t differentiate nouns from adjectives to save my life. Why does everything have to end in the same vowels?!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">Well here I am three years later. My Italian isn&#8217;t perfect,&nbsp; but I&#8217;ve gotten a lot better (thank goodness). This website started out as a WordDoc of grammar notes I compiled during the fall of my senior year and turned into a semester-long independent project. It doesn&#8217;t explain EVERYTHING there is to know about grammar, but hopefully it makes things less daunting for you when you&#8217;re cramming for finals.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;font-size: 25px\"><em><strong>In bocca al lupo!<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3216 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/web.colby.edu\/italiamo\/files\/2020\/05\/Round-Profile.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"81\" height=\"77\" srcset=\"https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/italiamo\/files\/2020\/05\/Round-Profile.png 936w, https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/italiamo\/files\/2020\/05\/Round-Profile-300x288.png 300w, https:\/\/web.colby.edu\/italiamo\/files\/2020\/05\/Round-Profile-768x738.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 81px) 100vw, 81px\" \/><span style=\"color: #000000\"><em>Jessica Reinhart<br \/>\n<\/em>Colby College<br \/>\nClass of 2020<\/span>&nbsp;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ciao a tutti!
