## What is Parliamo?

Parliamo teaches you Italian the way it's actually spoken — in real conversations, not word lists.

Every lesson is built around a scenario you'll actually face: meeting your host family, ordering at a bar, arguing with a taxi driver, navigating Italian bureaucracy. Grammar is taught after you've already used it in context, so it sticks.

WHAT MAKES PARLIAMO DIFFERENT
• Conversation-first: every word is taught inside a real dialogue
• Calabrian dialect layer: learn the regional Italian spoken in southern Italy
• Speech recognition: speak out loud and get instant pronunciation feedback
• Spaced repetition: scientifically proven review system keeps vocabulary in your long-term memory
• Full A1–C2 curriculum: complete beginner to advanced, all levels covered

SPECIAL MODULES
Unlock authentic content including street slang, Calabrian expressions, and real-world Italian that no textbook teaches.

GAMIFICATION
Earn XP, build streaks, collect stars and level up from Turista to Maestro Calabrese.

Whether you're planning a trip to Italy, have Calabrian heritage, or just want to speak Italian that sounds local — Parliamo is built for you.
