Why did Michelangelo invent scaffolding?

Michaelangelo did not actual invent scafolding. Scaffolding had long since been used in many situations wher hard to reach areas had to be worked on. When he was working on the SSistene chapel the pope had ordered a scaffold built for him to work from by Michelangelo's arch-enemy Bramante. The problem was that this involved drilling holes in the ceiling that had to have the work done on it. Michael Angelo complained to the pope and the pope said to him. do it your way then. So he built it supported from the ground instead.

Answer 2:

The above is no answer to the question. And Michelangelo complained about the pain in his face, but he completed the Sistine ceiling in 1512 and went on working elsewhere until 1574.

So he was not blind.

How do you pronounce Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni.?

I'll write down some words in English... the first letter of each word corresponds to one letter of the name you try to pronounce... just pronounce each of those first letters like you would do it in English (put them together):

m (like in my), i (like in if), ch (corresponds with the "c" of coward), e (like else), l (love), a (corresponds to the "u"-sound in "but"), n (now), g (corresponds to the "j"-sound in "john"), e (else), l (love), o (obvious - without any "u"-ending!!!). Seen how it works? Those were the letters for Michelangelo... pronouncing it in Italian.

Continuing: d (death), i (if), l (love), o (obvious - without any "u"-ending!!!), d (death), o (obvious), v (Venice), i (if), c (coward), o (obvious) -> gives "di lodovico"

b (bicycle), u (corresponds to the "ou" in "you", o (obvious), n (now), a (like the "u" in but), r (race), o (obvious), t (tomato), i (if); s (summer), i (if), m (my), o (obvious), n (now), i (if) -> buonarroti simoni.

If you're a native English speaker the biggest problems will be the ch/c, the Italian a and o (remember! o is short! like the starting "o" of obvious).

It seems there might be a typo in your question. If you meant "dementia," it refers to a group of cognitive disorders characterized by a decline in memory, thinking, and social abilities that interfere with daily life. Dementia is not a specific disease but rather a syndrome resulting from various underlying conditions, with Alzheimer's disease being the most common cause. Symptoms can include memory loss, confusion, difficulty communicating, and changes in mood or behavior.
