About these A1 stories

Italian A1 on this shelf is five stories about a bar, a park, a home in Rome, a morning train, and a blue bicycle. They use the present tense, articles, and the vocabulary of a first course, arranged as scenes rather than as lists. You read the line, tap the word that stopped you, and get a translation without a popup that covers the paragraph. Double consonants and the stress of a new word are easier to hear than to guess, so the audio highlight walks the sentence once before you save anything. Save fewer words than you tap. A story this short cannot support a review queue of every noun in it, and the bicycle lesson will reuse the verbs from the train if you let it. The opening lesson is a coffee at the bar. It is short enough to finish on a phone before the tea cools. After that, the same loop works on any Italian page you paste in, which is the point of the reader once the graded shelf runs out.
