SFUs Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences (FASS) | Introduction to Italian Phonetic Rules and Alphabet - Elena Caselli @SFUFASS | Uploaded June 2020 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
How many Italian words do you already know? Some of them are part of our everyday life like pizza or latte. Do you know that musical notation like Piano (slow) and Forte (loud) was invented in Italy during the Renaissance? That's how Italian became the standard language used in music.
The Italian language is over a thousand years old, is now spoken by more than 85 million people and is the forth most studied language in the world. It's a flexible and inclusive language, and its sound is beautiful, romantic and surprisingly easy to learn. Join us and learn how to order properly a bruschetta next time at your favourite Italian restaurant!
