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
