The trick is to make it look like you are in a Sunday cruise, not like you are bleeding through your eyeballs.

To prevent the sound of your lungs clapping hands like an aquarium seal at feeding time you need to take a deposit breath while calmly letting "ceeehoeveettah" slip out.

The protocol when passing people is just to hold your breath :P

How do you pronounce ciovita?

see o veeta?

key o veeta?

chi o veeta?

 

Genuine question. Don't want to sound like one of those tjops that genuinely thinks the argus is pronounced with a T on the end. 

These are but a few of the versions we've heard since we opened our doors  :)

The correct way to pronounce our name is is Cho-Veeta.

key o veeta? If it was spelt chiovita, then this

chi o veeta?

Once mastered, the Italian pronunciation of letters is easy. #Grammar101

 

Bianchi - Bee-ann-key and not chi at the end (the chi sounds like our K in English, i.e. key).

 

Ciao - Chow

 

Campangnolo - Cum-pun-nno-lo (Campy/Campag is for those that can’t say it properly).

 

Bicicletta - bitchy-clair-ta (just don’t drag the chair out, it’s a short sound).

Then Gnocchi would be pronounced Yock-ee, which is incorrect.

 

Another one:

Cup-o-chino

Cap-o-chino

 

“Cup of chino” as a mate calls it.
