The word "consonante" in Italian means "consonant" in English. It refers to a speech sound produced by obstructing or constricting the airflow in some way, typically with the articulatory organs.

In Italian phonetics, consonants are classified based on their place and manner of articulation. The place of articulation refers to the location where the airflow is obstructed or constricted, such as the lips, teeth, or tongue. The manner of articulation describes how the airflow is modified, such as whether it is stopped completely (plosives), partially blocked (fricatives), or allowed to pass through a narrow channel (approximants).

Understanding the concept of consonantes is essential for learning and pronouncing Italian words correctly. By mastering the different consonant sounds and their articulation, learners can improve their pronunciation and fluency in the language.
