I have been browsing books at Powerbooks in SM Megamall and I've come across with a self-help know how to speak Italian. I have fun reading and was quite amazed with the pronunciations, the spelling and how peculiar the words are very similar to English. But at the end I can only remember the word Mi parlare or Il cuore mio. The book only costs a cheap P35, maybe I'll be buying it some other time after I've read all my books in the house. This book is also good if you are a Josh Groban, Andrea Bocelli or Sarah Brightman fan. Knowing Italian would enable you to understand their songs.
