Hi everyone! Happy Saturday! I’m excited to say we will be starting another gorgeous language this week: Italian! Italian is another one of the Romance languages, and is pretty similar to Spanish and French. It does have its own special sounds and spellings though. In this video, we’ll explore a brief background of Italian, look at 10 sample Italian words, and take a look at common Italian stems. Italian is a beautiful, consistent language, and we can definitely thank it for our wonderful words of music and food!

Please help donate to water.org! There are families in need of what we take for granted, and I would really appreciate it if you could help me achieve my goal of reaching out to them. We only have a month left to accomplish our goal…so please help! The link to the donation site can be found at https://spellingmantra.com/donation/ or you can directly go to http://give.water.org/fundraiser/1507/.
