Enfoque de Pronunciación
Single S /s/ vs. double SS /ss/ — length contrast
Consejo para Hispanohablantes
💡Hold the SS in 'sessanta' and 'sassoso' noticeably longer than the single S in 'sassi' and 'sentiero'. This length difference is meaningful in Italian.
¿Sabías que...?
Double consonants in Italian are truly held longer, not just stressed differently. Misproducing SS as a short S can change word meanings (e.g., 'casa' vs. 'cassa').
