Useful words and phrases in English and Italian

 
Tip
There are some particularities in pronouncing some letters in Italian, see the following
Letter explanation Examples
double consonants those have to be pronounced, either by doubling it or accentuating it, as the meaning of a word can change completely cassa (vs. casa), pappa (vs. papà)
ch a c followed by an h is pronounced like a - k - bruschetta, gnocchi, zucchini
gli the g is not pronounced, instead pronounce it like - lli -- figlio, glielo, consiglio
gn the "g" is not pronounced, instead say a nasal - "n" - gnocchi
à è ì ò ù Many Italian words are accentuated on the first syllable, but not if there is an accent on the vowel: lunedì, caffè, farò
