Italian is written in the Latin alphabet. The letters J, K, W, X and Y are not considered part of the standard Italian alphabet, but appear in loanwords (such as jeans, whisky, taxi).

THIS may help you in finding cities in Italy. Let's do it by A-Z to make it easier. Thanks,

Lake Como
A popular destination since Roman times, is a top romantic travel destination and a great spot for photography.

We also have a Lake Como in Minnesota. Lake Como offers one of only a few hikes right in the City of St. Paul. With amenities such as golf, a zoo, and botanical conservatory, Como provides a pleasant setting via a sprawling, boulevard-laced parkland.
My mother was visiting one time and I drove her around the Lake and she told me about Lake Como in Italy.

Jelsi, Province Campobasso, Molise, Italy

This lively center is formed of an ancient and a newer part and rises on a rock over the Carapello stream. In the vicinity rose the ancient Samnite town of Romulea, as shown by archeological excavations of tombs and the presence of an Italic temple dating back to the 4th century BC. Called Gittia under the Lombards (7th century) the name had become Gelzi or Gilizza in the 17th century. The first feudal lord was Bertrando from Belmonte in 1269, later on the fiefdom passed to the Carafa family.

Herculaneum
was covered by volcanic mud during the A.D. 79 Mount Vesuvius eruption, which quickly hardened to a semi-rock material. As a result, excavations have been much slower here than at Pompeii, and although the first Herculaneum discovery dates back to 1709, the uncovered area here is much smaller. Also, a large part of the ancient town lies under the modern one, which has slowed down the process further. The findings, though, are stunning, mainly because Herculaneum is thought to have been a glitzy seaside resort for wealthy Romans, and so boasts villas even more elaborate than those of Pompeii.
