Working with cognates, which are words similar in both languages (in our case Italian and English) is a powerful way of speeding up your learning and also it helps with boosting one’s confidence.
The idea of this list however, is not only to provide you with a list of words, but also to empower you to make educated guesses about the meanings of words and to enable you to improvise words when you don’t have the Italian equivalent readily available.
When I mention improvisation, I am not referring to mere guessing. Instead, I’m suggesting that you tap into the extensive arsenal of your existing vocabulary in your own language.
In this easy guide you can expect to learn:
- What is a cognate?
- Your list of 50 words
- What is a loan word?
- Your list of loan words – food
- Your list of loan words – IT
- Your list of loan words – music
