If anyone here needs any help with Italian, I'm your man. (First-language native Italian.)

Studying German in college. Ain't that difficult. Most of the time.

News flash, people: Italian and Spanish are NOT OH MY GOD OH SO SIMILAR!!! They just sound like it, but there are huge difference just like with any two languages. If you claim you understand Italian because you already speak Spanish and viceversa, I'm sorry to have to put it this way, but you're talking out of your ass. Just be real.

In fact, in my experience, I have found far more cognates between French and Italian than between Spanish and Italian. That being said, I'm not going to go around and claim I understand French, because I don't.

I'm sorry if I'm coming off as an ass about this, but after a decade of hearing people smugly repeat the same myth, I've become a little bitter about it.
