1 Lesson 1-La Pronuncia (Pronunciation) L Alfabeto: (the alphabet) A (ah) B (bee) C (chee) D (dee) E (ay) F (effay) G (gee) H (ahkuh) I (ee) L (ellay) M (emmay) N (ennay) O (oh) P (pee) Q (koo) R (erray) S (essay) T (tee) U (oo) V (voo/vee) Z (zaytuh) *the letters j, k, w, x, y are not included in the Italian alphabet. Le vocali: (the vowels) A (ah) E (ay) or (eh) I (ee) O (oh) U (oo) Combinare le lettere: (combining letters) C when followed by e or i. sounds like ch as in the word church C when followed by a, o, u or h. sounds like k as in the word key G when followed by e or i. sounds like J as in the word jelly G when followed by a, o, u, or h sounds like g as in the word gum Sc when followed by e or i sounds like the sh in the word shower Sc when followed by a, o, u or h sounds like the sk in the word scuba S when beginning a word usually has a soft s sound as in the word salad S in the middle of a word usually has a hard z sound as in the word zoo -there are exceptions however! ( sgarbato insalata) Z when beginning a word has a dz sound Z in the middle of a word has a ts sound Gn sounds like the ny in the word canyon Gl sounds like the double ll in million

2 When the letter h begins a word, it is silent. -The Italian word ho is pronounced oh In Ps, the p is not silent The ia combination has two different sounds. One is a blended sound like ya and the other is individually enunciated. -Contrast the following words: spiaggia (blended) / farmacia (enunciated) The io combination also has two different sounds. One is a blended yo sound, and the other is individually enunciated. -Contrast the following words: gioco (blended) / radiologo (enunciated) Other vowel combinations: ae: ah-ay iu: ee-ooh ai: ay-ee ao: ah-oh au: ah-ooh ei: ay-ee Consonanti doppi: (double consonants) Rest slightly longer on the consonant sound when they are doubled -Contrast the following pairs of words: sette/sete sonno/sono palle/pale Accenti: (accents) There are few written accents in Italian, and they will usually fall on the last vowel. The 2 types are called: 1) accento grave: è (the vowel is pronounced with an open sound) 2) accento acuto: é (pronounced with a closed sound)

3 The unwritten Italian accent usually falls on the second to last syllable of a word. There are many exceptions that you will learn as you become more familiar with the language. Read the following sentence where the accents are all placed on the 2 nd to last syllable: La ragazza canadese mangia gli spaghetti e beve il fragolino. The tr combination has a trill which takes practice to develop. Practice (multiple times a day!) the following Italian tongue twister: Trentatré Trentini entrarono a Trento, tutti e trentatré, trotterellando Le parole simili: (similar words) There are many cognates in Italian with the English language. Look at the following chart to help you figure out how to say many (not all!) Italian words: English: Italian -tion: -ion, -zione: -ione -ous: -oso -t: -te -able : -abile -ence : -enza -ism : -ismo English : Italian -ty : -tà -ce: -za -ible: -ibile -ist: -ista -ance: -anza -r: -re * word combos. ct/-pt in Eng. = -tt- in Ital., j in Eng. = g in Ital., x in Eng.= s in Ital. Eg. information: informazione; different: differente; favor: favore Le definizioni: (definitions) La lettera C (the letter C) ciao: hi cena: dinner chi: who perché: why/because comodo: comfortable bicicletta: bicycle casa: house calcolatrice: calculator

4 La lettera G (the letter G) laghi: lakes giro: tour/round gonna: skirt gala: festivity gelato: ice cream ghiaccio: ice gusto: taste/flavor *The word genuo was misspelled in the video. The correct word is ingenuo meaning naive. La combinazione Sc (the combination Sc ) sciare: to ski scemo: fool schiena: back scuola: school scimmia: monkey schema: scheme scolastica: scholastic sciopero: strike La lettera S (the letter S ) sorella: sister cosa: what santo: saint Pisa: the city, Pisa messo: put insalata: salad casa: house La lettera Z (the letter Z ) Venezia: the city, Venice zona: zone/area pizza: pizza zaino: backpack Zurigo: the city, Zurich pezzo: piece Le combinazioni Gn, Gl, Ps (the combinations Gn, Gl, Ps ) gnocchi: potato dumplings psicologo: psychologist figlio: son campagna: country glielo: it to him psicosi: psychosis Gli accenti (accents) città: city perché: why/because tassì: taxi università: university ventitré: twenty-three La combinazione ia (the combination ia) camicia: shirt lascia: leave grigia: grey giacca: jacket spiaggia: beach farmacia: pharmacy gelateria: ice cream shop biologia: biology astronomia: astronomy bugia: lie dialogo: dialogue
