    If I am talking about a parent company that owns different restaurant chains, then it would be ok. Otherwise, I would use "those are good restaurants" or "these are good restaurants".

    Sono Americano e sto imparando Italiano anche.  Per la prima volta ho trovato un film di commedia che mi ha piaciuto.  Si chiama "Fantozzi in Paradiso".  Paolo Villagio e buffo!

    I understand how you feel.  I felt the same way.  I am learning Italian and I went from A2 to B2.  What I found to improve my listening is a strategy called the "translation technique".  Find a podcast in the language you are learning, turn on your voice recorder, and then translate.   1. Press record on the voice recorder

    2.  Press play on the podcast

    3. Translate the podcast into your native language at the same time while the podcast is playing.


    This exercise is an example of "active" learning vs. passive learning (watching movies, documentaries, listening to music, etc.)

    It forces you to focus on the language.  It will increase your fluency

    Active learning is the fastest way to learn.

    Real time translation forces you to focus on the language.  It will increase your fluency.
