The Italian Language. Italian is the official language of Italy, and 93% of population are native Italian speakers. Around 50% of population speak a regional dialect as mother tongue. Many dialects are mutually unintelligible and thus considered by linguists as separate languages, but are not officially recognised.
Like all Romance languages, Italian has a fairly uncomplicated sound system. All words, with the exception of some borrowings, end in a vowel. Initial two-member clusters are limited to Consonant + /r/ or /l/ or /s/ + Consonant. There are a few /s/ + Consonant + Consonant clusters.
