Salve Jennifer,

Thanks for your comment. Yes ‘Caro Diario’ is a great film, however I don’t remember the scene that you mentioned as it was several years ago that I saw it, I’ll have to try and watch it again sometime.

A presto, Serena

Ciao Serena,

I really enjoyed this entry…what a good idea to teach us how onomatopeic words are spelled and pronounced in Italian.

I just wanted to point out that this reminds me of a scene (molto carino!) in Nanni Moretti’s Caro diario when callers could never get through to their desired parties because little kids would keep them on the phone asking questions like “what does the pig say?”

Great blog!!

What an awesome site Serena. Someone had sent me a link for learning word of the day for Portuguese and Spanish, but I am thrilled to see language blogs as well.
