Transcript of Audio lesson and/or Beginning Dialogues

I'm going through the course a second time and I would love to see a transcript of the audio lessons. I've tried printing the lesson to PDF, but this excludes the actual audio lessons.

More than anything else I want to see the little conversations the hosts have before the lesson gets started. These aren't written out until level 3 and it's bothersome to have to play/pause the lesson to copy them down.

I remember a forum post that had all of those dialogues copied in them but I can't find it now. Can anyone help?

Hi NicholasL23, 

Thank you for your comments. 

Please note we currently don't have an option to download the audio transcript/the subtitles from the Audio lessons; what you can download as PDF files, are the Conversation Transcript (the actual conversation for the lesson), and the Extra Vocabulary:

If you are referring to something else though, please let us know and we'll do our best to help. 

Kind Regards

Thank you for the response!

I'm looking specifically for the little bits of Italian dialogue at the beginning of each lesson in level 2, where the host asks Howard and Maria a question about the lesson and they respond in Italian. These responses aren't written out anywhere except the subtitiles in Level 2. (In Level 3 they are included in the extra vocabulary and occur at the beginning AND end of the lesson.)

Like I said before, I've seen them written out in the comments here on the forum, but I haven't been able to find it.

Hi NicholasL23, 

 

Thanks! Sounds like it'd be the review then? When the host would ask "Could you tell me how to say "surprise" in Italian now?" and then after a pause, you'd get the answer? There's usually a review from the previous lesson (at the beginning), and then a review for the current lesson (at the end). If it's about this, then yes, as this is part of the dialogue and the long audio content, there is no transcript for it specifically; the questions though, are generally taken from the conversation itself, so it'd be in the Conversation Transcript or the Extra Vocabulary section. I believe we are evaluating the possibilty to provide a transcript for the entire audio, but we have not been confirmed of anything yet. 

 

Kind Regards!

Not quite! This is how lesson 7.2 begins:

Benvenuti a Rocket Italiano Interactive Audio Course lezione: Al concerto. Welcome to the Rocket Italian Interactive Audio Course “at the concert”. It's me Howard again, and our Italian experts Roberto and Maria are here too. Buon giorno. Ciao a tutti. Today we'll be talking about going to a concert. We've been really looking forward to this lesson, because we all share a love of Italian music! Infatti! La musica è molto importante per tutti gli Italiani che la compongono e la ascoltano o anche per tutti i turisti o stranieri che vengono in Italia per le vacanze. Very true. Music is appreciated by all Italian people, and everyone – locals and tourists- love listening to Luciano Pavarotti!

This is all in the first sixty seconds of the lesson! The bolded portion is what I'm looking for, since it's not written out anywhere. If there's no way to get these, please submit it as a request for me! These genuine bits of fluent Italian are excellent examples to review and test your comprehension.

This is the post I was looking for! 11 years old now, so the numbers are wrong. But it looks like the text is correct, at least for the first 5 that I reviewed: https://app.rocketlanguages.com/members/forum/italian/italian-feedback-and-comments/conversation-at-begining-of-premium-plus-lessons

Thanks for your posts everyone. We just wanted to let you know that we are planning to add the intros into the Extra Vocab lists for level 2 soon. They won't be included in the testing, but you will be able to play the audio and read the translations etc. We hope that helps!
