	was hoping this would be the other way around...because I knew this way would not end well for me. although it still did end better than a trip to olive garden...which usually ends up in the bathroom

	I got four. Now I wish I had paid more attention to the Olive Garden menu.

	I always had the pizza 'fungi e salsiccia' or something like that... I miss it. Haven't been in Italy for too long.

	lol @ mozzarella being an acceptable answer.

	If only they asked for the Italian word for "pizza" or "spaghetti', I could have scored a point!

	It's preferrable and quite fun that it's Italian because of the phonetic spelling of words and the shorter alphabet but it's also great cause odds are if you speak either French or Spanish the clues will come to you, in some form or another.

	I was trying to figure out a way to input hand gestures as answers, but to no avail.

	Got them all except pork and strawberry. I kept trying carne di maiale, which is the more formal version. I learned Italian in middle school, and it's stuck wiht me ever since. It's such a beautiful language.

	I thought by adding an "O" at the end of the word might work

	If I had to order in Italian in let's say Rome, I'd feast on an egg with some salt and ice cream

	I think these quizes would be more fun for English only speakers if we had the foreign word and had to translate into English. I could probably come up with some of those but have no chance doing them this way.

	I got only one , il pollo , and that too thanks to the Pizza Express menu.

	So what's with the definite article??? You didn't ask for it in the English so I didn't put it in the Italian. Lost four right answers (Darnit, Derek!)

	I could've sworn it was Funghi...

	6/20 without studying italiano

	@gabe25591: singular= il fungo pL= i funghi

	morjabari:	Aug 25th, 2010 at 04:47 GMT	4 points
	the article isn't necessary in English, but is in Italian.

	i got everything except "ham". it seems that my family uses lot of words that may not necessarily be Italian, but more "italiese". Also, we call chicken "gallina" (not "pollo") whether it's alive or dead, eating it or not. LoL good quiz, though!

	also, i have issues with double letters. i totally wrote "prosciuto" instead of "prociutto"... T_T

	Zucchero is one of my favorite Italian words :) I couldn't get 'steak' even though when I lived in Italy my host family ate it often, then I realized that they just always called it 'steak' (they had six American students before me though). Oh how insidious English can be...

	Horrible test. Couldn't get it to take "arancione" for orange, "lattuga" for lettuce or "carne di maiale" for pork. Fail.

	gigimacmurray:	Sep 5th, 2011 at 04:49 GMT	1 point
	I also couldn't get it to take "Porco" or "Carne di maiale" for the pork. No wonder most of us couldn't get them all correct. I agree serf_in_USA

	Giggles247:	Oct 23rd, 2011 at 00:30 GMT	2 points
	I got all of them except for pork and orange. I cheated, I used a translator. Lol! For pork I put in carne di maiale, but it didn't take it. For orange I put in arancione, but it didn't take it.

	TrishF:	Nov 11th, 2011 at 00:03 GMT	3 points
	I don't understand why it wanted the articles too. I kept typing in prosciutto and it wouldn't take. It wanted IL prosciutto. Not fair.

	happypenguin:	Nov 13th, 2011 at 22:03 GMT	1 point
	@ serf_in_USA in italian, arancione refers to the color orange while arancia refers to the fruit

	hiariej:	Nov 19th, 2011 at 19:43 GMT	6 points
	Why does it say that it doesn't require the articles, but in the quiz you do actually need them? I initially was thinking my spelling was off or something.

	i clicked this only to right pizza................................Grrrr

	Vitarai:	Mar 18th, 2012 at 05:04 GMT	2 points
	Um...I seem to need to include the correct article in order to get the answer.
