Description

An odd set i know, but this helps you if you are trying to play "Brain Training" on the DS in Italian.

vanwistle : Your set of 4-letter words is really neat. I am curious about "Brain Training" and what capabilities it has for Italian language learning.
louduno : Hi, yeah, I've been playing "Brain Training" on teh Nintendo DS, my girlfriend changed it from english to Italian mode, which makes the games even more challenging! it has one particular part where it tests your "Brain age", if you choose the option not to use the microphone it challenges you at a certain point to memorise 30 4 letter words in 2 minutes. you then write these words in using the DS touch screen. VERY challenging to do it in Italian, but one day I'll be able..!
nibbles : This is a great set of words. very challenging and worth revisiting.
louduno : Thanks, the thing that's killing me with it is how the change of the word end can have such vastly different meanings. I also keep remembering similar sounds but the wrong spelling.
