    More Italian resources
    (essentially I compiled some of things I found online for my friend, and then I decided to share them with you as well):

    http://static.unilang.org/resources/courses/learnitalian_en.php - Basic Italian language course online, part 1
    http://static.unilang.org/resources/courses/learnitalian2_en.php - Basic Italian language course online, part 2
    http://home.unilang.org/main/wiki2/index.php/Italian_grammar - Italian grammar reference
    http://www.uvm.edu/~cmazzoni/3grammatica/grammatica/ - Italian grammar site

    http://www.clic.net/~lasallej/italiano/index.html - Click on "grammatica italiana" to see grammar stuff, and check the collection of the links there!

    http://www.zacinto.it/errori.htm - view some errors commonly made (warning: the site explains everything in Italian!)

    http://www.dialettiitaliani.com/ - Various stuff in Italian dialects (warning - Italian is one of the languages very rich of dialects, which can be quite far from the standard Italian - from what I've seen, though, they are translated as well in standard)

    http://www.unb.br/il/let/abpi2000/antoniani.htm - "Lingua e dialetti in Italia" - an interesting reading, but iit is entirely in Italian

    http://xoomer.virgilio.it/hqsgia/ - A site about Italian proverbs
    http://web.tiscali.it/proverbiitaliani/ - Another site of Italian proverbs
    http://giavelli.interfree.it/proverbi_ita.html - And one more...

    http://www.locuta.com/indirizzi.html - This is THE site, with a bunch of useful links - when I found it, I wanted to delete all the previous and just leave this ;)

    Spero che vi piaceranno :)
    Enjoy.

    Euharisto, Denise! (cannot type Greek here... )
    By the way, do you know any good Greek forums (on literature, philosophy, languages, whatever; something like LW, but, if possible, with more serious atmosphere?)?
