Answer:

The difference is due to the succeeding vowel sound strength (whether it is weak or strong)

Explanation:

"ch" produces "k" like sound. Whenever , alphabet "c" with in any word comes before any weak vowel sound such as i  or e , it always sound as "ch".

Therefore, c and ch in gioco and giochi are sound similar.

"sc" sounds like "sh" when it comes before any weak vowel sound (as in the case of capisci)

"sc" sounds like "sk" when it comes before any strong vowel sound (as in the case of capisco)

Explain why you can see the Moon.<br><br><br> Science
Ghella [55]

Answer:We see the Moon because sunlight reflects back to us from its surface. During the course of a month, the Moon circles once around the Earth. If we could magically look down on our solar system, we would see that the half of the Moon facing the Sun is always lit. But the lit side does not always face the Earth. As the Moon circles the Earth, the amount of the lit side we see changes. These changes are known as the phases of the Moon and it repeats in a certain way over and over.
