How Do You Spell PICCIANO?

Pronunciation: [pɪksˈi͡ənə͡ʊ] (IPA)

The word "picciano" may seem confusing at first glance, but its spelling is actually quite straightforward when using the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). The first syllable "pic" is pronounced with a short "i" sound (/pɪk/), followed by the double consonants "cc" which indicate a geminate or doubled sound (/tʃː/). The final syllable "iano" is pronounced with a long "ee" sound (/iːano/), as in the word "piano". Therefore, the correct IPA transcription for "picciano" is /pɪk tʃː iːano/.
