Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Rabbit?

Answer: coniglio

2. Chicken?

Answer: gallina/pollo

3. Pig?

Answer: maiale

4. Cat?

Answer: gatto

"Gattu" is a Sicilian word, not Italian. And "gato" is Spanish.

5. Dog?

Answer: cane

6. Whale?

Answer: balena

Pescecane is a shark, pesce is a fish, tonno is tuna...

7. Frog?

Answer: rana

"Ragno" is a spider.

8. Wolf?

Answer: lupo

9. Fox?

Answer: volpe

10. Sheep?

Answer: pecora

11. Cow?

Answer: mucca

The answer here is "mucca," but "vacca" also means "cow." My relatives from Sicily still use "vacca."

12. Duck?

Answer: anatra

"Uccello" is a bird, "pollo" is a chicken, and "cigno" is a swan.

13. Turkey?

Answer: tacchino

I threw in turcchio and tacchio as distracters. To my knowledge, they are not words. "Anatra" is a duck.

14. Skunk?

Answer: puzzola

"Anatra" is a duck, "rana" is a frog, and fumara is a meaningless distracter.

15. Hamster?

Answer: criceto

"Topolino" is a little mouse, "scoiattolino" means "little squirrel."
