So glad you hang on my every word and can understand when I refer to
you without naming you or giving any other reference other than
complete and utter narcissism. That's YOU and now everybody knows you
own it.

Eat shit, dear boy... that's what she said and it's recorded for
posterity.

How should it be pronounced? Ricotta is the one that gets me. Most of the
people on TV say it like it is spelled but my inlaws say "raw guut".

So, pretend the first r doesn't exist? I think for most Americans,
the ne part is hardest. We're used to saying knee or dropping it
altogether, not saying (or hearing) neh. As I understand it, you can
barely hear the "neh" part - which I will assume is why many of us,
who don't speak Italian, leave it off entirely.

When it comes to speech, Massachussetts is the US equivalent of Quebec.

We're not a consistent lot. In the US, we have cities with identical
names which are pronounced differently, even if they are in adjacent
states. Case in point: Newark NJ and DE.

DE? NJ is New Jersey, yes? Is there a list online showing the states along
with the abbreviation?

Google is your friend. DO as search for "marsacpone" it tells you is is
showing the results for "mascarpone" the correct spelling.

So why did she spell it with an r? It's the end sound that the issue
AFAIC.

She who?? Julie? Danged if I would know.
I thought the problem was that so many people call is marscapone like
the planet and the gangster when the "r" should be in the second syllable.

I have a SiL who has a way of very clearly pronouncing Assiago with a "t
Astiago. I tried gently correcting her by always clearly saying it
without that non-existent "t". But she has an Italian neighbour so she
knows best. She likes it with her eXpresso.

I hear people say mah at the beginning, not mass - so I hear
mahscarponee, mahscarponay and mahscarpoan - Vilco says it's
masscarponeh. I say I've heard that "eh" at the end of an Italian
word is almost unvoiced and that's probably why so many say
"mahscarpoan".

Do you really spell carpet as if it was written capet? That r exists and
influences the spelling

You're mixing up italian with french and who-knows-what-else: in italian
there are practically no words than end in "eh", however if they existed the
part "eh" would be spelled clearly, expecially the E. No mascarpoan ever,
that NE is spelled exactly as the NE in "NEt", as I already wrote.

Mascarpone is the way it is spelled. The "r" comes in the second syllable, not the first.
