{"product_id":"england-vs-italy-frances-hotimsky-9781545001226","title":"England vs Italy: Comparing Life and Language","description":"We learn a foreign language in order to connect with the people of the country speaking it. Connecting may be necessary when work comes into play - perhaps not as relevant when pleasure, not business, is involved. In both cases, we are challenged by new structures, new patterns, new vocabulary which make sure that culture comes to life. Whenever possible, we look out for reassuring similarities with the language\/s we are familiar with. Such similarities are not always (easily) found. At times, words and expressions are misleading since their meaning unexpectedly differs. At times, it is the people's customs and habits which puzzle us. This book attempts to straighten out some instances native speakers of English may find tricky when coming to grips with Italian.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Frances Hotimsky, Alex Dunitz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1545001227\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781545001226\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/17\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 150\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.46lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.32d","brand":"Frances Hotimsky","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43938404892927,"sku":"9781545001226","price":9.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_9b98f4c5-cf98-4737-b32d-7a94ad5f23ad.jpg?v=1681435491","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/england-vs-italy-frances-hotimsky-9781545001226","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
