Ciao Crush, in Italian the pronunciation of the letter "c" may be different: if the "C" is before letters "A", "U', "O" and before consonant = it sounds like an English "K" Example: casa = kasa "C" is before letters "E" and "I" = it sounds similar to the English ch (as in church) Example: cena= chena I hope this helps. Ciao
