Italian Phonetics Part 2: Consonant Sounds, C and G, GL and GN
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 июл 2024
- We've got the vowel sounds down, so let's move on to the consonants! Most of them sound just like you would expect, but there are some exceptions, especially with C, G, and some letter combinations like GL and GN. Let's learn how these work now!

I tried rolling my R’s, and accidentally learned how to whistle. Thanks!
Lmfaooooooooooo
It's easy to make such a sound in arabic
lucky..
@@yousefshaheen2740 wdym,i speak Arabic and i can't do it,no matter how i try
@@broken3576 that's odd, because the only language I know at a conversation level is English and I can do it
Dave you literally do everything. I'm Italian, and even grew up with my nonna who speaks nothing but Italian and broken English. I can understand her but can't speak it. I've tried dualingo, and other apps but they don't teach us the rules like you're doing here.
I'm finally starting to get it thanks to your videos. Also love the pseudo science debunks ❤
I was searching for Calculus videos. This is so much fun!
This video is awesome! Love your stuff, looking forward to watching the rest of the Italian videos
Thank you Dave! Helpful lessons.
After learning French starting last year, I'm learning Italian this time. Thank you for this playlist! :)
Dave your pronunciation is impressive!! I'm so proud of your Italian!
Your intro is AMAZING
These lessons are really good, thanks alot Dave thanks you so much you are doing a wonderful job great work grazie mille
Thanks professor, U teach so nice I hope I will learn Italian here very well
Thank you so much !
This is exactly what I have been looking for! You are a godsend!
sei un genio senza dubbio. Bella spiegazione!!!
Your video is helping a lot, thank You. Luckily it is not very hard to pronounce, my original language is finnisch, and somehow it is partly easy for us!
Quite helpful
Awesome! Thank you so much. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😊😊😊😊😊😊
The soft “c” sound in Italian is the more original soft “c” sound overall. The soft “c” was also a “chee” in Old English, and I think the idea of that would be somewhat of a grandfather clause for the soft “c” in Romance languages. Romanian still has a “chee” as a soft “c” as well.
Thank u
Merci
For 'gl' and 'gn', the way I hear it is you pronounce the letter following 'g' and then add a 'y' or 'yuh'-sound before the vowel. Gnocchi is pronounced nnn-yo-key
Well, that is the way he says it (especially GL, his GN is practically perfect), but where normal L and N are pronounced with the tip of the tongue touching the palate just behind the teeth GL and GN are pronounced with the mid-section of the tongue touching the palate, just a little behind that position; note that GL at the start of a multi-syllable word has a hard sound as in glimpse. He also stresses the vowels a bit too much everywhere, but overall his pronunciation is excellent.
Could you please make a playlist for your Italian Videos ?
i did that!
I love how the guy is dreaming of a pizza at 8:08.
In Bengali language we have a similar Gn sound.."ঞ" it's not the same but for us bengali speaking people it is easier. Thank you for the lessons.🥰
i leanrned italian phonetics months ago. the teacher said when the italians speak they pronounce the "t""c" is more like the t/c in "style"“scale", not normal t/c, but when they sing they pronounce the t/c like those in english. is that true? do i really need to pronounce so hard to tell the difference (which i really cant lol
As a native serbian speaker, there are things that are scarily similar, there are letter combinations that we have as a letter like Ć(ce, ci) or Đ(ge, gi) or words that are literally the same.
It seems like I can remember the words faster with your voice. Guess I'll watch everything in the playlist.
Bravo! One comment about the sound /d/ and /t/ . They are dental in Italian, meaning that the tongue needs to touch your teeth when you pronounce them.
how can one learn to roll there r's if they have rhoticism. Where your r's come out a more W sounding
soon ill be able to order lunch on my Italy trip for school and not make a fool of myself!
First i'm arab taht speaks french so i already roll my r AND make the gl and sounds so yayyyyy
Second there is something that you didn't point out which is how to pronounce sc in Italian because in some verbs it makes a "sk" sound but in others it makes a "ch" sound and it really confuses me
Your explanations are good and almost always on point. I'm actually willing to use your content about Italian vowels for an online lesson I'll give to a student of mine. Altough, let me tell me you that your pronunciation of the "gli" group is wrong and actually pretty far from the Italian one in almost all examples you gave. I cannot explain myself better than that now, just wanted to help you awareness; it's a native and well-educated Italian speaker here writing. Keep on with your great work!
Are C/k/,P, and T sounds not aspirated in Italian?
English is used aspirated K,P, and T sounds strongly.
TL:DR: There isn't any important difference in Italian.
It doesn't matter if the sounds are aspirated unlesss the language specifically distingushes between them. (Italian doesn't)
Perfect pronunciation, but the "GLI" is pronounced a little different
yeah i have a tough time with that one! sometimes i pronounce it better than others. but i think my pronunciation of it will improve throughout the series.
It's not too bad for someone born in Ithaca, NY. But he is pretty good with gnocchi and ghiaccio!
what's the IPA symbol for that sound?
@@pablomorralla3256 pretty sure it’s /ʎ/
Gli /ʎi/
Been trying for over 30 years. I cannot roll my R. :(
honestly, we italian should put a gn in every food word just to make fun of foreigns
7:24
*PLEASE HELP* How do you really say "Nutella" in Italian?
wait for the next tutorial where i talk about double consonants! that should help
similar to english,
Nu- tel- la
the double L sounds harder (any double consonant is like that)

You roll the letter R just like in Spanish.
Italian letters t and d are pronounced like in Spanish.
Put your tongue behind your teeth.
Italian and Spanish are spoken in the front of the mouth while English is spoken in the back of the mouth.
As a matter of fact, D can be quite different in Spanish, sounding like the voiced "th" in English, as in "then" (the IPA symbol for that is [ð]) when it's between vowels.
somebody tell me how to Rrrrrroll the R
Just ask any American to do an impression of a Harley Davidson motorcycle and you'll have them rolling their R's in no time. 😃🍷Salute!
cries in r moscia
John dinner
Ciao
I like "gli" it's like Yeezy 😂
Why there is no channel like this for french. If somebody would explain french like this... wow
laughs in language that has rolled r's and doesn't need to learn them
John Cena
(Its-a me Mario intensifies)
I'm here mostly for the gli sound.
ah man i have such a hard time with it!
My mouth hurts... but this is not too hard since English and Vietnamese helps
Dice not Die
Actually, both are correct. People say "throw the dice", but having done that they say "the die is cast". In german we say "die Würfel sind gefallen" which translates to "the dice have fallen". Enjoy your day ^^
Couldn't pronounce at all 😞
Just watch some vintage Italian Comedy movie....It would be totally easy to pronounce'em
Are you part Italian? I see your name is Farina, maybe you have some Latino background
Yep I'm Italian.
@@ProfessorDaveExplains Che figata!
John Cena dun dun dun dun... dun dun dun dun my time is up my time is now you can’t see me my time is now
I now know why the third 'c' in my surname is pronounced 'ch.' Cool!
thank the gods they didn't anglicize it into an "s" sound, as was often done.

Pleeease, pleeease, learn to say bruschetta according to these rules! I really cringe every time i see an english language story where the pronounce that che like in Chester and not like chemical, also make sure you pronounce the double z in pizza like a tz nor like an s because Pisa it’s the city with the leaning tower and you’ll sound funny at the restaurant.
I don't presume this is directed at me as I pronounce all those words immaculately. Bruschetta is a pet peeve of mine as well.
And c sound like ch , and ch sound like k , no sense
??? ruclips.net/video/EqLiRu34kWo/видео.html
... I don't really see the point of these two comments of yours... Every language has got its own orthographical rules, why would you look for a sense compared to Spanish?
@@janeyre82 se vuoi ti faccio un disegnino, 🙂 cmq il punto è che ad un commento idiota ho rimandato ad un video in cui viene spiegato che in inglese lo stesso fonema può essere scritto in maniera differente a seconda della parola, contrariamente all'italiano o alle altre lingue romanze. Un italiano difficilmente ha bisogno che venga fatto lo spelling per capire come una parola o nome si scrive. Insomma: rapporto fonema-grafema
Why italians spell z like c , Venezia , why is not Venecia? Spanish is simillar but better language , more fluid
James Williams what does it mean is a better language and more fluid?!In my opinion italian sounds better but it doesn’t mean that it’s a better language.And more fluid?A native speaker is fluent in his language.Last z in italian is pronounced like ts and also ds not c.
James Williams ????? No sense Lol
it's pronounced Venetsia
and fun fact, in the north words with an s like Casa (home) have the s prnounced more like a z, while in the south it's just s
