Sottofondo: Learn Italian in the Background

Remember how you learned your first language? Nobody gave you a grammar book. You just heard words, again and again, while life happened around you. Sottofondo brings that back. "Sottofondo" is Italian for "background," and that's exactly where this show belongs: behind your morning coffee, your commute, your workout, your evening dishes. Every episode works the same way: English, a short pause, then Italian from a native voice. Ten minutes, one topic, no effort required. Leave it playing and let your ears do the learning. If you want a boost, say the Italian out loud in the pause.
