Hello everyone! We are LearnAmo and we will help you to learn or improve your Italian language. Like any self-respecting first lesson, we'll start with the alphabet.
Do you know the Italian alphabet? Here it is! I'll read to you all the letters: "A," "B," "C," "D," "E," "F," "G," "H," "I," "J," "K," "L," "M," "N," "O," "P," "Q," "R," "S," "T," "U," "V," "W," "X," "Y," "Z".
In red you find the "vowels," in blue the "consonants," while in green the "foreign letters," those letters that, formerly, weren't part of the Italian alphabet but that, by now, have become part of it. But let's see them in detail. Ok, let's start from the first letter, first vowel, "a.
" I decided to have you also take a tour in our beloved Italy, in our beautiful country, so I associated with every letter a city. For "A" โ Ancona, "B" as in Bologna, "C" as in Cagliari. Let's move on, "D" as in Domodossola, "E" as in Enna, "F" as in Firenze, well-known around the world for its art.
"G" as in Genova, city on the sea, "H" as in the hotel that, certainly, you will book for your vacation in one of these cities. "I" as in Isernia, "L" as in Livorno, "M" as in Milan and its Duomo, "N" as in Napoli, the city of pizza. "O" as in Ostuni, the White City, "P" as in Palermo, "Q" as in Quarto, "R" as in our capital, Roma, "S" as in Sassari, "T" as in Torino, "U" as in Urbino, "V" as in Venezia, the city of the gondolas, "Z" as in Zagarolo, certainly you haven't heard the name of this town because, effectively, there are few towns that start with the letter "Z".
In any case, now we'll see the foreign letters, letters that, as I told you before, weren't part, formerly, of the Italian alphabet but, by now, since we use daily words like "jeans," yogurt," "xbox," "wurstel," "ketchup," they have entered in our alphabet, but we use them just specifically for foreign words. . .
there aren't Italian words with these letters. Ok, for today, our lesson ends here. However, if you want the written explanation and all the exercises for this topic, go to our site www.
