Yes, you do speak ITALIAN !

Reading newspapers you will often come across Italian words. A few from music:
maestro - master

When you are in an Italian restaurant you will probably recognise many Italian words on the menu.

You can brush up on your Italian in Italy, Sardinia, Italian restaurants in London, England. Italian is also used in opera which you can hear in opera houses in many European countries. Or buy italian language discs, and opera discs, or see Italian films in movie theatres, on videos and on YouTube.
    I picked up a copy of The MAG which has Italian and English on the front cover and inside.

From the front cover I picked up the words
un uomo - a man
capello bianco - white hair
lungo - long

Inside I read:
cucina tradizionale - traditional cuisine

Nord - north
Sud - south
vacanza - holiday (like the French vacances)

For adults, a good start would be the set of two discs by Berlitz from the earworms system.
