About Italian

Italian is spoken by more than 85 million people worldwide and is the official language of Italy, San Marino, and Vatican City. It is also widely spoken in parts of Switzerland.

Italian belongs to the Romance language family, descending from Latin spoken in the Roman Empire. Among modern Romance languages, Italian is often considered one of the closest to classical Latin in pronunciation and vocabulary.

The language uses the Latin alphabet and is known for its relatively phonetic spelling, meaning that words are usually pronounced much as they are written.
