Languages are different . So is the Solfege. Pitch sounds are of course universal, however pronouciation of those pitches into solfege is not. It depends what region you are from as to how you are taught. Anyway this is a silly debate: We all are lovers of music (learners, performers or listeners), why else would we be worried about learning solfege anyway. Peace and Love to all of yoy.

Hey, how do you sight sing music with words? Do you think the solfege while sight-singing it? My teacher has been using numbers instead of solfege. I can sing notes using numbers but I haven't been able to sing music with words. It's hard for me to think the numbers and sing words at the same time.

@philipkatsotas

""Ut" was changed much later in Italy to the open syllable Do,[8] and Si was added to complete the diatonic scale. In Anglo-Saxon countries, "si" was changed to "ti" by Sarah Glover in the nineteenth century so that every syllable might begin with a different letter["

@philipkatsotas

it has changes before amny times:

" musical scale is ancient, though originally it was played in descending order. eleventh century... Guido of Arezzo developed a six-note scale: ut, re, mi, fa, sol, and la. A seventh note, "si" was added shortly after"
