Linguacce

A perfectly normal Italian class.

On a small club stage, Arturo the wolf declaims «Essere o non essere» to a skull while Claudia the hare slow-claps from her table and Nico the cat winds up to throw a tomato.

Nico, Claudia and Arturo teach you the Italian people actually speak: the slang, the little words, the things a textbook is too polite to mention. They will also have opinions about your accent.

The faculty

  • Claudia, a cream hare in a red jacket and glasses, arms folded

    Claudia

    The critic. Has already heard your accent. Has notes.

  • Nico, a charcoal cat in an orange jacket, hands in pockets

    Nico

    The host. Cool, warm, and never late. He just arrives later.

  • Arturo, a tawny wolf in a blazer and round glasses, smiling

    Arturo

    The performer. Nobody asked. He performs anyway.
