Best Answer

"It" and "ital" are common abbreviations for the word "Italian."

Specifically, the first two to four letters of the word generally call to mind cultural and linguistic connotations linked with the Italian peninsula and islands. The abbreviations may or may not begin with a capital letter. They usually will be followed by a complete stop (.) so that there is no confusion with the English object pronounn "it." Another source of confusion -- which undoubtedly dissipates according to context -- will surface when "ital" also is used to abbreviate the noun "italics."
