Armonia is an Italian equivalent of the English word "harmony."

Specifically, the Italian word is a feminine noun. Its singular definite article l'* means "the." The pronunciation is "AHR-moh-NEE-ah."

*The article actually is la. But the vowel drops and is replaced by an apostrophe when the following noun begins with the same vowel.

An autosegment is a form of phonemic element - autosegmental phonology allows tone and vowel harmony to be independent and extend beyond individual consonants and vowels.

It is a technique which is common in several African languages.
