Bruschetta, not brushetta - how Italians really say it
Say brushetta in an Italian bar and the waiter will smile. In Italian, SCH sounds like SK.
Rose orders her favourite starter in a bar. Laura, playing the waiter, helps her hear the rule with one word she already knows.

| Itaalia keeles | Sõna-sõnalt | Mida see tähendab |
|---|---|---|
| Una bruschetta, per favore | a bruschetta, please | said bru-SKET-ta, never bru-SHET-ta |
| Scherzo | joke | same rule: sch = SK |
| Pesce | fish | sc + e or i without h = SH |
| Come si legge? | how does one read it? | how do you pronounce it? |
In Italian the H after C keeps it hard: CH = K, so SCH = SK (bruschetta, scherzo, schiena). Without the H, SC before E or I sounds like SH (pesce, scienza).
