It is spoken on the nearby islands of Sicily, Sardinia (though the Sardinian language itself is different), and Corsica. The language is also used extensively in Malta, Somalia, parts of Switzerland, and a few other countries. There are an estimated 4.5 million speakers of Italian in the United States, 1.3 million in Argentina, and an estimated half million in Brazil. Many speakers of Italian know only its dialect forms and have little contact with standard Italian except in school, though this is changing with increasing exposure to national television and radio. Standard Italian emerged during the 13th and 14th centuries as the dialect spoken around Florence. Its use by Florentine writers such as Dante established it as the leading dialect. Many other spoken dialects nevertheless persist, including Piedmontese, Lombard, Ligurian, Emilian- Romagnol, Venetian, Veronese, Trevisan, Paduan, Neopolitan, and Calabrian. Each city-state and region developed its own dialect and maintained it, while standard Italian became the accepted literary form. - From the Compton's Concise Encyclopedia, on-line edition $$ .Grammar Basics 4 ..Alphabet 1 ^F4THE ITALIAN ALPHABET Letter │ Name │ Approximate Sound ───────┼──────┼─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── a │ a │ Like a in English "father" │ │ b │ bi │ Like b in English "boat" │ │ c │ ci │ When followed by e or i, like ch in English "cherry" │ │ When followed by a, o, u, or consonant, │ │ like c in English "cook" │ │ d │ di │ Like d in English "dance" │ │ e │ e │ One like a in English "make", shown by é │ │ One like a in English "met" │ │ f │ effe │ Like f in English "fool" │ │ g │ gi │ When followed by e or i, like g in English "general" │ │ When followed by a, o, u, or consonant, │ │ like g in English "go" │ │ h │ acca │ Always silent │ │ i │ i │ Like i in English "machine" │ │ l │ elle │ Like l in English "lamb" │ │ m │ emme │ Like m in English "money" │ │ n │ enne │ Like n in English "net" │ │ o │ o │ One like o in English "note", shown by ó │ │ One like ou in English "ought" │ │ p │ pi │ Like p in English "pot" │ │ q │ cu │ Always followed by u and sounds like qu in English "quart" │ │ r │ erre │ Like r in English "rubber" with a slight trill │ │ s │ esse │ Like s in English "see" │ │ Like z in English "zero" │ │ t │ ti │ Like t in English "table" │ │ u │ u │ Like u in English "rule" │ │ When followed by consonant, like w in English "was" │ │ v │ vu │ Like v in English "vain" │ │ z │ zeta │ Like ts in English "nuts" │ │ Like dz in English "adze" ^F4OTHER LETTERS Letter │ Name │ Examples Letter │ Name │ Examples ───────┼─────────┼─────────────────────────┼─────────┼─────────────────── j │i lunga │ jazz, jingo x │ics │ xenofobo, xilofono k │cappa │ kiosco, kodak y │ipsilon │ yacht, yoghurt w │doppia vu│ water-polo, whiskey $$ ..Vowel Combinations 1 ^F4VOWEL COMBINATIONS Vowel Pronunciation Vowel Pronunciation ──────┼────────────────────────────────────┼───────────────────────────── ai │ ai in English "aisle" au │ ou in English "out" ei │ ay-ee eu │ ay-oo ia │ ya in English "yard" ie │ ye in English "yes" io │ yo in English "yoke" iu │ you oi │ oy in English "boy" ua │ wah ue │ way ui │ oo-ee uo │ oo-oh $$ ..Consonants 1 ^F4CONSONANTS h is never pronounced ll mm nn rr ss When two consonants occur in the middle of a word, they are both pronounced.
