The demo
starts by teaching you 6 words very quickly.
You must picture each image as vividly as
you can for 10 seconds.
For example:
The Italian
for BIRD
is UCCELLO
Imagine the conductor in an animal orchestra
saying to a BIRD.
"YOU
CELLO, me conductor."

There are four Italian courses available
from beginners to advanced level (Levels 1, 2, 3 and 4). The
courses are available a choice of SOFTWARE
(PC and Mac), AUDIO CD, or MP3 AUDIO
formats.
The SOFTWARE versions allow you to hear the correct
pronunciation of each word when it is first presented (as
in the demo above), as well as seeing the text presented on
screen. The AUDIO and MP3 AUDIO versions allow
you to listen to the entire course in the car, on a personal
CD player, or on an MP3 player like the Apple iPod etc. Please
see futher below for a demo of the audio course.
The software, audio, or MP3 audio versions are equally effective
courses on their own as they teach the same vocabulary and
grammar. However, for those who wish to have the convenience
of seeing the text and hearing pronunciation of each word
from the software course, and also listening to the entire
course while away from your computer with an audio course,
the different versions are highly complementary. Many people
learn first by using the software, then revise by listening
to audio versions.
The software and MP3 audio versions are available on CD by
post, or can be downloaded immediately after payment. This
allows you to start learning within minutes wherever you are
in the World, and at additional discount (please see the 'Special
Offers' on the right of the page). Audio CD courses are available
on CD by post only.
The Level 1 software or audio course allows you to learn
an extensive vocabulary and basic grammar in just 10-12 hours
- about 3 times faster than you would take using conventional
learning methods!! This will enable you to communicate effectively
in Italian in EMERGENCIES,
at the RESTAURANT, at the HOTEL, at WORK etc etc. Levels 2,
3 and 4 courses extend your learning using exactly the same
approach, so by the time you finish you will be able to read
and understand the average newspaper, and speak and understand
Italian in a very wide
range of situations.
Printable course vocabulary glossaries are provided with
all courses.
Please see our special offers on the
right of the page for details of great savings.

 A
large number of independent studies have shown the method
used in Linkword courses is up to 3x faster than normal
learning methods. Words will just stick in your mind.
Even if you think you are poor at languages, Linkword
will show you that you can do it.
If you struggled with languages at school it is almost
certainly not your fault. It is the way you were taught.
Level 1 Italian will teach you an extensive vocabulary
and basic grammar in 10-12 hours, enough to communicate
effectively in a large number of situations you will
meet abroad. It is ideal for Travel, Business or Schoolwork
and for all ages.
