Thank you Ken Hutley... I save every spider that I CAN! Always have, always will. I hope someday you see this message and get back to using Duolingo!
The gn is pronounced as it's usually pronounced, i.e. similar to Spanish ñ or similar to English "ny" as in "canyon".
The "g" and "n" are not pronounced separately, just like in "fishing" you don't pronounce the "s" and the "h" separately -- the "sh" together make the "sh" sound, and in Italian, the "gn" together make the "gn" sound :)
