How do ITALIANS pronounce "Fiocchi"?


Depends on what part of Italy they are from. Some with a hard "c" and some with a soft "c." There are dozens of dialects and sub-dialects in Italy, with wild differences in vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation. My wife speaks French, and when we got married she could converse easily with my Mother's side of the family, but barely got by with my Father's side of the family. All the grandparents and aunts/uncles had been born in Italy, only a couple of hundred miles apart.
