Italian Letter Combination
The letter combination GH is pronounced like the hard English g in "granite."
 |
Per esempio… |
| unghia | fingernail | |
| rughe | wrinkles | |
| funghi | mushrooms | |
| acciughe | anchovies |
Note that GH is only ever found in front of the soft vowels E and I – H is added to make the G hard. In front of hard vowels (A, O, U), the letter G is already a hard g sound.
