Quick Facts

+ Italian has numerous dialects, many of which regional varieties coexist with the standard language; some are mutually inherently unintelligible. Piemontese and Sicilian are distinct enough to be separate languages. Venetian and Lombard are also very different. The Napoletano dialect of Napoletano-Calabrese is reportedly unintelligible to Standard Italian. Northern varieties are more similar to French and Occitan than to standard or southern varieties

+ Some dialects include Tuscan, Abruzzese, Pugliese, Umbrian, Laziale, Central Marchigiano, Cicolano-Reatino-Aquilano, Molisano.

Aquilano, Molisano, and Pugliese are very different from the other Italian varieties.
