    Corniglia.
    Is pronounced “Cor neel ya” with the accent on the second syllable.
    The Italian “gli” is as difficult for English speakers as the English “th” is for Italian and French speakers.
    I still can’t do it quite right, but if I say it quickly, the Italians pretend not to notice.
    Beautiful country - great if you’re a mountain goat :-)
    As for Portofino - try it in late September - still crowded, but at least you can get a parking space. I remember the electronic signs on the road leading there saying that you were “X” minutes away and being very glad that it wasn’t the heart of the tourist season.

    Thanks, I knew my Italian was rusty. Since then I have studied Turkish, Russian, Mandarin, Swahili and Greek. Sometimes they get a bit muddled.
