Pronunciation guide

Italian pronunciation might pose some difficulties for beginners however it is not difficult if certain basic rules are followed:

1. 
   All letters, both vowels and consonants, must be pronounced, with the exception of h


2. 
   If 2 or 3 vowels follow each other in a word, each one is pronounced and retains its own individual sound.


3. 
   If a word contains a double consonant you pronounce both consonants
