Can I Learn Italian Only Using ChatGPT?

I spent the last 7 days studying Italian using nothing but the new ChatGPT-4o to find out if AI is really the future of language learning. During the challenge, I tested different prompts and compared it to popular apps such as Duolingo. Andiamo!

Italian is actually a special version of the Japanese language.

What?

[@peanut9076]

i usually use chatgpt as my vocabulary builder and usually asking differences between close verbs that have similar meanings etc. its a great tool to ask for meanings of words and u can literally also ask it to refer to a spesific dictionary on the internet so u can make sure its legit too and it creates pretty solid example sentences. id say experience is 8.5/10

[@TheKateandNate]

Yeah that sounds like a very smart way to use it!

The first thing I typically learn in any language is pronunciation. The biggest things I noticed is that you'll want to pronounce ch as a k sound; c followed by i or e makes a ch sound; and gli makes kinda like a lyee sound. 🙂 The channel that helped me a lot with the basics of Italian was Italy Made Easy. PS: if I recall correctly, you'll always want adverbs to be attached to the verb. Ex: Parli bene l'italiano. That's why Duolingo considered that one sentence incorrect.

Bravo, amico mio, continua così!

Nice video! Greetings from Peru :D

[@diogolsq5295]

I do not speak Italian, I speak a few other languages, though. Funny, interesting video. Good format, well done. Keep it up. Won a sub.

[@TheKateandNate]

Thank you!

[@user-tx4ot4sx5u]

Nice video keep going

[@jackharper124]

I started learning Italian on Duolingo two weeks ago. Now I think I'll try to incorporate chat gpt as well!

[@TheKateandNate]

That’s awesome! Buona fortuna!

[@joaovitorjungblut5225]

Great video, mate. Do Brazilian Portuguese next!

[@joaovitorjungblut5225]

Your video feels like super authentic, it's quite charming. It also helps that I love learning languages as well

[@TheKateandNate]

Thank you, I’m glad you liked it!

[@user-xc2yb7lr1h]

Bro I can’t use it,Why? I am so sad.

[@voidkaithcrine4653]

Sono italiana e per 7 giorni la tua pronuncia non è per niente male, alcune frasi che hai fatto su duolingo che risultano sbagliate non erano neanche poi così tanto sbagliate, ci stavano :)

[@TheKateandNate]

Thank you! That’s great to hear from someone who actually speaks Italian!

[@voidkaithcrine4653]

@TheKateandNate yw😊

[@abdi_252]

i also started this week learning italian,save to say its pretty much easier than english,as a somali its so easy to prounce for me and we already use a lot Italian words which I did not realise before,

[@voidkaithcrine4653]

@abdi_252 well yes, the thing that makes my language complicated I think is the fact that there are also dialects but honestly for dialects I don't know much either that I am a native speaker hahahah

[@voidkaithcrine4653]

@abdi_252 anyway good luck learning it! :)

I suggest you to combine chatgpt and lingq, that way it automatically generates the audio and you can learn better, save words, use flashcards etc. I'm italian, the AI not doing a bad job... but as you mentioned the listening part is important and you are gonna be much more confident speaking and reading if you have a good pronunciation

[@TheKateandNate]

Yeah, I would definitely like to try LingQ! From what I’ve heard, if you can get into it, it is one of the absolute best resources to learn a language!

[@pirangeloferretti3588]

Your pronunciation was a tiny bit off especially when you tried to read the 'ch' and 'gl' combinations, nonetheless completely understandable. Quite impressive for just 7 days, bravo!

[@TheKateandNate]

Thank you! Yeah I was a little confused by those sounds in particular haha!
