Braciola? Now I know the correct spelling. In southern Italian dialect, it's pronounced "brazhol."

That’s exactly how my husband and his family pronounce it :-)

Italian is a language I haven’t studied, but want to.

I think the singular is braciola and the plural is braciole. Pronunciation seems to slur the ‘ci’ into a sort of ‘zh’ sound :-)
