Books about learning a language

[Kathryn]

Does anyone have suggestions for books where the main character is learning to speak Italian?

[Kathryn]

I don't know why there are three of these. I'm in my phone and can't seem to delete the extras

[Kathryn]

I'd love suggestions about both

Kathryn, I'm moving your request to the "REQUESTS: FOR BOOKS IN GENERAL" folder, and deleting the duplicate posts.

Good luck!

[Kathryn]

Thanks! I thought that's where I was! But I'm on my phone and goodreads is a bit challenging

[Kris]

No worries. The mobile version is rather limited. :)

Evening Class is about a group of Irish people learning to speak Italian (it's fiction)

[Kathryn]

That is exactly the type of book I'm looking for! Thanks!

Bloomability has a strong focus on people learning Italian, but there are also characters learning English.

When I saw the thread title, I thought you wanted books about how to learn languages, so I was going to suggest Fast, Easy Way to Learn a Language...

[Kathryn]

Thanks! I'm always after those as well - I'm working my butt off trying to learn Italian.

Damocles has people learning an alien language.

[Lobstergirl, au gratin]

In The Book of Strange New Things the aliens have learned rudimentary English, and the MC tries to learn the alien language. Some of the alien alphabet is included in their conversations.

My husband is teaching himself Korean, and highly recommends Fluent Forever: How to Learn Any Language Fast and Never Forget It to language learners.
