If you are a serious person, you shouldn't touch this at all, as it contains all the bad languages and rude ideas of life. However, I have found it to be fantastic, as you will get to learn the language and culture in its truest form. This certainly arouse my interest in learning the language and the country as a whole, in the most realistic form. Knowing the bad words doesn't mean that you'll have to use them at people!

This cd contains very basic language and is poorly presented.

I have looked at several Berlitz cds and books and have found them all to be very poor. The main problem with Berliz products is that the translations are not accurate (literal) and so there can be no real understanding of how the language works.

Being American, it also uses stupid words and phrases.

The only Berlitz product that I have found to be any good is their Italian in 3 Months which has a good conversational style but jumps all over the place a bit and does not explain much and is therefore better as an additional learning tool for someone who is attending classes.

I found the introductory music per lesson annoying, but other than that, this is a great addition to my conversational Italian collection. Great price too!
