Did you know that....
Italian is spoken by 57 million Italians living in Italy?
But Italian is also abroad: in the USA the 3.9 million Italian speakers are the second largest linguistic minority.
Half a million Italian speakers are also found in Canada and another half a million in Australia.
Plus, 3 million Italians emigrated to South America, mainly to Argentina - that's why so many Argentinians have Italian names!
Many others speak Italian in the world.. for example, in Ethiopia and Somalia.
What about you? Do you have any Italian roots at all? Do you love Italian food and arts? Or maybe you have a passion for Italian songs or cinema?
Whatever your reason, la Dolce Vita is waiting for you.
