Study guide pamphlets are typically the size of a standard sheet of paper. The Italian Study Guide pamphlet is like a cheat sheet for basic Italian phrases, numbers, vocabulary and pronunciation. It is helpful while taking a class to learn Italian or as a quick guide while touring Italy. Some are laminated for best protection and utility. Dependent upon the study guide you get, some are color coded between verbs and nouns to make it easier to create a correct sentence structure. This is one of the best investments, at a low cost, you can add to your Italian learning.
