I really appreciate this video, it was very helpful. For most of my life I've been studying Spanish, and I'm relatively close to fluent in it, and I've just started getting into studying Italian. I suppose I have a question about the "GL" sound like in Coniglio. You did say it was similar to the Spanish "LL" sound....is there really any distinction? I just want to make sure i"m doing it right. it's like a very heavy Y sound right?
@DraperyFalls444 You are right, GL resembles spanish LL a lot, although there may be a little distiction: in spanish, LL sounds more (as you said) like a heavy Y sound (calle...). While in the italian GL you stick the tounge to the palate as you would say a L but then you almost close your mouth, and blow the air out....mixing g with l....it's quite hard to explain. If you want, post a video response with your voice :)
thank you very much for watching, i'm glad you liked the video :)
