1) Learn the alphabet basics
Italian mostly uses the standard Latin alphabet. Letters like j, k, w, x, y appear mainly in loanwords—good to recognize as a beginner.

2) Use voice + writing for pronunciation
Translate a short phrase, listen to voice pronunciation, then write it and rewrite once from memory. This trains spelling and speaking together.
3) The 10-minute routine
- 3 minutes: review 10 words.
- 4 minutes: 3 short sentences (listen + write).
- 3 minutes: rewrite without looking.
Italian rewards consistency. Short daily writing beats long weekly study.
