Hi I wonder can someone help me with the pronunciation of the Italian noun "la scelta" meaning mainly *choice* in English. The dictionary I am using seems to suggest it should be pronounced with an 'f' sound as if it was spelt __felta__. Is this correct? Ray

Please disregard my last email. I have discovered that the 'sc' in the Italian word is pronounced like the 'sh' sound as used in the English word *shelter*. Ciao! Ray

Ciao Raymparf, welcome to the Italian Rocket Community! You are right! the word "scelta" (for choice) is pronounced with the sh sound. Please let us know if you need any other help or suggestion. All the best for your Italian learning. The Rocket Italian Team
