- LtWorf 4y agoI said I'm a native italian speaker. -_-' You want to trick me with a french word? As if an italian would be unable to tell a word in italian from one in a different language?
- akolbe 4y agoTurandot is an opera by Puccini; the word is of Persian origin, and the Wikipedia article I linked extensively discusses how Puccini intended for the title to be pronounced in Italian. Cf. https://medicine-opera.com/2008/12/turandot-without-the-t/ https://medicine-opera.com/2008/12/turandot-without-the-t/ But never mind.
