Great video, really enjoyed it. The only shame are those ignorant folk who babble about things they do not understand, just to draw attention. Instead of doing so, they should seek a shrink, because that need for attentiont must be related to not being loved by their parents or something like that. Seriously man, good job.

italians are IDIOTS. The way those BASTARDS try to railroad Amanda Knox they should all do the world a favor and jump off a cliff. italian criminal justice system, what a joke as well as the IDIOTS who work for it. Simply put, they are ASSHOLES!
@Ralex004 One day I saw two colleagues of mine (one from Leeds and the other one from South England, on the coast, but not Brighton... don't remember) on our CCTV monitor and I could understand what they were saying thanks to their gestures! Since that day I paid attention, and yes, Brits do talk with their hands! There's nothing bad!
i'm like 1/4 italian and my grandpa who is italian sent me to italy to school to study and get in touch with my roots does that make me a wanna be italian haha. since i'm going to be living here for a while
Reminds me of Family Guy, where they had Soviet spies who would activate upon hearing the phrase: "That Italian family at the other table is so quiet".
Unbelievable but true...You can talk to legendary Italian comedian Pat Cooper (Pasquale Caputo) directly this Thursday! Pat Cooper is making a rare, live appearance this coming Thursday, July 28th, 2011 at 7:04PM Eastern, 4:04PM Pacific exclusively on the fastest growing talk-radio station on the internet...TalkRadioX and he WILL take your call! Plus, he'll reveal the truth behind what everyone's waiting to hear about. Call-in to TalkRadioX and talk to Pat Cooper at (661)349-TALK.
In Argentina we say "eso a mi me nefrega" when we don't care about something. I always wondered what the heck "nefregar" was and where did it came from. Now I know xD.
being italian american doesn't mean you're half italian, it means you are of italian decent and have just as much italian blood as an italian if your parents are italian. or it can mean you're culturally italian. Italians, like every other people, are both a race and a culture. and even if you're not born racially italian, someone with less italian in their blood than the Amish can be just as italian as a gondola rower in venice if they were raised to be italian
My father (who speaks Italian) said that in that language, the way you say something is almost as important as what you say. He said, for example, that 'non me frego' can mean 'I don't give a rat's arse' or 'I don't give a f**k!' depending on the tone of voice and gestures.
ahhahahaa i love it. They didn't teach me that in my italian classes. Just the professor for my second semester, was the younger one so she didn't mind to teach us a couple of "bad words"! my favorite was: non me ne frega un cazzo until i found MA CHE CAZZO VUOI!.......or the classic: STRONZO. i can tell that to anyone who i know knows not even a bad word in italian. i love to see their faces. :D
@albopride11 ma cosa hai detto??? actually don't believe that first was albanian. NO WAY. that's pure italian, well, NON ME NE FREGA i love italian language. THE BEST IN THE WORLD. <3
ok i am 84 % italian and this is mostly bullshit! most of the signals are correct but the pronouciation if way off for exsample Ho Fame! if pronounced ( hoo) Fahmeah) u sound irish when you say it
I'm italian 100% and the only moment when you clearly realize he's not italin is at the end, when he says "ma vaffanculo", with too much emphasis on the L.
while when he says "C'è qualcuno che ruba" is great.
Im italian..and my mom runs around screaming "mongya geh ghasta el mingya stafounga" or something at me laot..im not sure what it means.. but im just gonna let her keep yelling it..Lol
i'm italian, and the "they are in agreement" gest usually means that they r in love... orgoglioso di essere italianooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Please, don't say you are italian just because your parents have (far) italian origins.
You are NOT italian. I know saying "I'm italian" makes you more interesting than "I'm from (put the name of your stupid birthplace here)" but PLEASE don't assume we believe it's true.
P.S.: I know my english is bad and full of mistakes, but remeber is better and better than your italian
@rudegnappo I seriously couldnt agree any more. I hear alllll the time people !!!THINKKKINNGGG!!! theyre italian. Its like they're so desperate just to be italian! My parents are italian but i dont go around bragging about it!
@rudegnappo I am born in New Jersey, that does NOT mean that I favor the show Jersey Shore or have anything to do with the behavior the people on it partake in. My family came to America from Italy, that makes me an Italian American. Like it or not, we are of the same heritage. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to someone who does not believe that people who leave their home country do not share the heritage of the people who remain there.
@beatarmy22 Don't worry, not all italians are so fussy... i don't care for example, and i think that saying "i'm an italian american" is legit and people should be always remember from were they come (and also be proud of that ;) )
@rudegnappo When my family left Italy they were poor peasants. When they arrived in New York they were at the bottom of the social status, just like in Italy. They worked their way to the top of the American economic status and now we have more money than the people who treated our ancestors like peasants in Italy, and we are citizens of the greatest country in the world. You should be happy that descendants of your country were able to come to America and make better lives for themselves.
Seriously, shut the fuck up. It doesn't matter where you're born, what matters is the ethnicity of your parents. I'm completely Sicilian by ethnicity, but I just happened to be born in Cairo, Egypt. So the fuck what? That doesn't make me Egyptian, asshole. Learn what you're talking about before you go off on people.
@rudegnappo ''just nazi regime divide people by ethnicity'' u just wrote the biggest bullshit on the history of internet... its october 2011 and ethnic statistic, census etc.. are widely used everywhere in the world, from usa to malesia, from kenya to japan and so on.. plz dont write this crazy bullshit, somebody can believe u..

@mushroomartist but Doesn’t the culture from which land you were born, influence you? would'nt it be ignorant to deny the external cultural influences?

@rudegnappo why the hell would anyone want to be itallian? its not a bad country but its not very good also... i am your naibor and i know that its not that much interesting about u ...
@MikakoValla Non mi sento più figo ad essere italiano, semplicmente mi da in culo che questi qua si spaccino per italiani quando hanno forse un lontano parente italiano. Ci fanno fare delle figure di merda in giro per il mondo, secondo te lo stereotipo dell'italiano pizza-mandolino-baffi neri lo hanno creato gli emigrati italiani che andavano in giro per il mondo a farsi un culo così sgobbando 16 ore al giorno da sottopagati, o i coglioncelli che si credono italiani? jersey shore ne è un esempio
@rudegnappo lo hanno creato anche gli emigrati italiani che sgobbavano 16 ore e con tutto il rispetto non è che ci andavano i manager, ma povera gente, ipercattolici, molto attenti al cibo ecc e questo non ha creato stereotipi? Fidati che le figure di merda non le facciamo per colpa loro, io non mi sento che i francesi fanno una figura di merda quando vengono rappresentati con l'ascella pezzata con sotto la baguette.
Ok, If you're such a true italian, then why are you watching a video explaining Italian hand gestures? Shouldn't this be your "Forte"? If you live in italy then why do you need this?
Sono nato in Canada, I miei genitori vengono dall'italia... Ho imparato italiano e adesso provo da imparare la cultura'. Sono un cittadino di canada, ma sono ancora italiano. Tu sei italiano solo se il tuo padre o madre ha sangue italiana. Dove si e' nato e' irrilevante.
Ma non e' cosi. Tutto delle due fanno importante. Se si ha sangue italiano ma non e' nato in italia o non sa parlare la lingua.... quindi, non e' un vero italiano. (Per esempio Jersey shore)
Ma se una persona di... cinesi (o di qualsiasi paesi) linee di sangue, Sa parlare la lingua, e' nato in italia... E' ancora non un vero italiano.
Secondo me, linee sono piu importanti. Ma anche dove si nasce e' un po' importante.
@null from my very fractured understanding of Italian, you and milly are talking about... immigration? I assume Milly is making brash generalizations or something?
@Aepotheosis sorry I didnt' generalize at all. The fact italians are so welcoming toward everyone it' doesnt' mean we acept the bad behaviour. Unfortunatly not every immigrant is respectful toward us our culture costumes and country.
But the good honest respectful and polite people are always welcome here we italians like foreigners especially if they want to integrate in our population.
i went to italy a couple weeks ago and i did not expect such rudeness from them, all they want is money from you, i was at the Duomo church in Milan and some misers were giving people bird seeds by force and after pictures and everything, they make you pay 10 CORNUTTO euros for fucking bird seeds. They just come up to you no matter what you say and just slam the seeds in your hands and make you pay
@TheXlazer6 Hey! I'm sorry for what happened to you, I know it sucks. But I care to say that those people are not italians, they are all illegal immigrants. Hope you had also some good time in Italy :)
illegal inmigrants, hm, honesty I've experienced more italians doing that, than inmigrants (I lived legally in Italy for 2 and a half years), especially in Rome (example: pictures with the roman soldiers)... I dont know how is it in Milan tough... and of course, I know not all italians are like that.
@aparanae Yes, I know it happens in Rome. I'm just talking about Milan since I live there. There's a different culture in those two parts of Italy, positive and negative sides in both of them. One thing is sure, gestures are the same in the whole country ;)
Yes, that could be. And the funny thing with the gestures is, that in the time that I was living there, I was starting to do also some of them, (and also some italian noises while speaking) hahahaha, but it stopped since I moved to Germany :P
@aparanae vorrei sapere se al paese tuo sono tutti signori e raffinati. No perche' qui vengono tutti e dico tutti con la pretesa di trovare il paradiso poi non lo trovano e si permettono di sputarci sopra . Non ti piace Roma? bene, resta in germania.
Il problema e' che noi italiani siamo troppo di buon cuore e sempre pronti a sopportare tutto.
@milly8389 tranquila, io non vi ho sputatto sopra, io soltanto ho detto quello che succede a Roma, che provanno a venderti delle cose in una maniera che all'inizio sembra ingenuo e poi quando sei cadutto nella trappola vogliono dei soldi, e questo e' un po' molesto per i turisti. Roma e' bellisima, io ci vado volentieri ogni volta che si puo'. Legge bene le mie parole di prima, "io so che non tutti gli italiani sono uguali"...Non ti incazzare, non volevo e non voglio litigare...
@aparanae scusa ma che ti aspetti che te le regalano le cose? e' chiaro che vogliono i soldi, devono pure campare. Invece mi ha stufato il vostro atteggiamento da snobbini che venite qui da immigrati per necessita' pretendo il lusso e il paradiso che non trovate e poi per ripicca sputate sull'italia raccontando sul web di quanto Roma o l'italia sia un pessimo paese. Ma vergognatevi voi. Chi disprezza Roma e l'italia non ne e' degno. Siamo un popolo aperto e accogliente ma meritiamo piu' rispetto
@milly8389 ma hai letto quello che ho scritto? quando ho detto io che Roma e l'Italia sia un pessimo paese? :S... non generaliziamo, io so che alcuni immigranti non si integrano alla societa' italiana, ma non sono tutti cosi... cosi come gli italiani non sono tutti uguali. Allora, se quello che vuoi e' soltanto sputtare il tuo desprezzo sull'immigranti, continua pure, ma io mi sto' zita la prossima volta perche' non ha senso discuttere con te.
@aparanae sei tu che hai la coda di paglia. Hai attaccato i romani e ora fai la vittima? e poi hai letto quello che invece io ho scritto?. Ho parlato al plurale non al singolare quindi il messaggio non era diretto solo a te.
Chi viene in italia e' ben accolto ma deve imparare a rispettare noi e le nostre citta' PUNTO. Non ha senso discutere con te se non accetti il confronto e il contraddittorio!
why americans are so impressed or atracted to the italian hand gestures?? you don't move your hands when you talk?? i think that is... anglosaxon culture is such a bore.. and yes, italian-americans are not italians, they are an ugly stereotype of real italians... they are the klowns of the original puritan gringo of america... a real italian dispice "american" culture.. they are so much better than them in almost anything
haha questa è divertente! ma io non penso che abbiamo bisogno di sapere tutte quelle parolacce ...? comunque, ma questo probabilmente ha aiutato alcuni americani:)
@450hGS You Oiv translated the, so dont think your cool because you can use a translator. If you where relay Italian you would of used some slang words. I can speak full Italian and i dont spell every word proper !
me encanta el idioma italiano, e italia misma.. es el pais de europa que más me piace, además los italianos son tan cool y con una historia tan rica... saludos a todos los fratellis de italia desde Chile.. PD: los italian-americans, are not italians.. thay are a stereotype of italians...
these are real right? I wont learn the wrong thing and then get my ass whooped for doing it? If these are actual cool because I want to go to italy when I grow up
@diedavidtenchdie yes, that's right. But we (I mean italian people) prefere to use the word "soldi" and not "denaro". Denaro is used as formal word. Soldi is informal, like your expression "what's up"..
@kangadillo that's right...the word "denaro" is not very used...Other words are not very used, like the verb "possedere" (it means to have), but we use another verb, "avere" (it always means to have). I make you an exemple with these words:
"Quanto denaro possiedi?" (How many money do you have?) = formal

Ci fanno fare delle figure di merda in giro per il mondo, secondo te lo stereotipo dell'italiano pizza-mandolino-baffi neri lo hanno creato gli emigrati italiani che andavano in giro per il mondo a farsi un culo così sgobbando 16 ore al giorno da sottopagati, o i coglioncelli che si credono italiani? jersey shore ne è un esempio

@rudegnappo lo hanno creato anche gli emigrati italiani che sgobbavano 16 ore e con tutto il rispetto non è che ci andavano i manager, ma povera gente, ipercattolici, molto attenti al cibo ecc e questo non ha creato stereotipi? Fidati che le figure di merda non le facciamo per colpa loro, io non mi sento che i francesi fanno una figura di merda quando vengono rappresentati con l'ascella pezzata con sotto la baguette.

Ok, If you're such a true italian, then why are you watching a video explaining Italian hand gestures? Shouldn't this be your "Forte"? If you live in italy then why do you need this?
Sono nato in Canada, I miei genitori vengono dall'italia... Ho imparato italiano e adesso provo da imparare la cultura'. Sono un cittadino di canada, ma sono ancora italiano. Tu sei italiano solo se il tuo padre o madre ha sangue italiana. Dove si e' nato e' irrilevante.

@TheItalianCanadian... Secondo me, non hai ragione. E piu importante dove si nasce che la linee di sangue.

Se lo dici tu... "ItalianMan"
Ma non e' cosi. Tutto delle due fanno importante. Se si ha sangue italiano ma non e' nato in italia o non sa parlare la lingua.... quindi, non e' un vero italiano. (Per esempio Jersey shore)
Ma se una persona di... cinesi (o di qualsiasi paesi) linee di sangue, Sa parlare la lingua, e' nato in italia... E' ancora non un vero italiano.
Secondo me, linee sono piu importanti. Ma anche dove si nasce e' un po' importante.

@11ItalianMan che bello, mi piace "le linee di sangue"... che bella espressione!
Cmq hai ragione: sono la cultura e l'ambiente in cui si nasce e si cresce a formare la persona!

@null from my very fractured understanding of Italian, you and milly are talking about... immigration? I assume Milly is making brash generalizations or something?
Aepotheosis 1 year ago
@Aepotheosis sorry I didnt' generalize at all. The fact italians are so welcoming toward everyone it' doesnt' mean we acept the bad behaviour. Unfortunatly not every immigrant is respectful toward us our culture costumes and country.
But the good honest respectful and polite people are always welcome here we italians like foreigners especially if they want to integrate in our population.

i went to italy a couple weeks ago and i did not expect such rudeness from them, all they want is money from you, i was at the Duomo church in Milan and some misers were giving people bird seeds by force and after pictures and everything, they make you pay 10 CORNUTTO euros for fucking bird seeds. They just come up to you no matter what you say and just slam the seeds in your hands and make you pay

@HelluvaGirl89
illegal inmigrants, hm, honesty I've experienced more italians doing that, than inmigrants (I lived legally in Italy for 2 and a half years), especially in Rome (example: pictures with the roman soldiers)... I dont know how is it in Milan tough... and of course, I know not all italians are like that.
aparanae 1 year ago
@aparanae Yes, I know it happens in Rome. I'm just talking about Milan since I live there. There's a different culture in those two parts of Italy, positive and negative sides in both of them. One thing is sure, gestures are the same in the whole country ;)
HelluvaGirl89 1 year ago
@HelluvaGirl89
Yes, that could be. And the funny thing with the gestures is, that in the time that I was living there, I was starting to do also some of them, (and also some italian noises while speaking) hahahaha, but it stopped since I moved to Germany :P
aparanae 1 year ago
@HelluvaGirl89 actually we have a different set of gestures for almost every region but the differences are hard to tell

@aparanae vorrei sapere se al paese tuo sono tutti signori e raffinati. No perche' qui vengono tutti e dico tutti con la pretesa di trovare il paradiso poi non lo trovano e si permettono di sputarci sopra . Non ti piace Roma? bene, resta in germania.
Il problema e' che noi italiani siamo troppo di buon cuore e sempre pronti a sopportare tutto.
milly8389 1 year ago
@milly8389 tranquila, io non vi ho sputatto sopra, io soltanto ho detto quello che succede a Roma, che provanno a venderti delle cose in una maniera che all'inizio sembra ingenuo e poi quando sei cadutto nella trappola vogliono dei soldi, e questo e' un po' molesto per i turisti. Roma e' bellisima, io ci vado volentieri ogni volta che si puo'. Legge bene le mie parole di prima, "io so che non tutti gli italiani sono uguali"...Non ti incazzare, non volevo e non voglio litigare...
aparanae 1 year ago
@aparanae scusa ma che ti aspetti che te le regalano le cose? e' chiaro che vogliono i soldi, devono pure campare. Invece mi ha stufato il vostro atteggiamento da snobbini che venite qui da immigrati per necessita' pretendo il lusso e il paradiso che non trovate e poi per ripicca sputate sull'italia raccontando sul web di quanto Roma o l'italia sia un pessimo paese. Ma vergognatevi voi. Chi disprezza Roma e l'italia non ne e' degno. Siamo un popolo aperto e accogliente ma meritiamo piu' rispetto
milly8389 1 year ago
@milly8389 ma hai letto quello che ho scritto? quando ho detto io che Roma e l'Italia sia un pessimo paese? :S... non generaliziamo, io so che alcuni immigranti non si integrano alla societa' italiana, ma non sono tutti cosi... cosi come gli italiani non sono tutti uguali. Allora, se quello che vuoi e' soltanto sputtare il tuo desprezzo sull'immigranti, continua pure, ma io mi sto' zita la prossima volta perche' non ha senso discuttere con te.
aparanae 1 year ago
@aparanae sei tu che hai la coda di paglia. Hai attaccato i romani e ora fai la vittima? e poi hai letto quello che invece io ho scritto?. Ho parlato al plurale non al singolare quindi il messaggio non era diretto solo a te.
Chi viene in italia e' ben accolto ma deve imparare a rispettare noi e le nostre citta' PUNTO. Non ha senso discutere con te se non accetti il confronto e il contraddittorio!

why americans are so impressed or atracted to the italian hand gestures?? you don't move your hands when you talk?? i think that is... anglosaxon culture is such a bore.. and yes, italian-americans are not italians, they are an ugly stereotype of real italians... they are the klowns of the original puritan gringo of america... a real italian dispice "american" culture.. they are so much better than them in almost anything

diedavidtenchdie 1 year ago
@diedavidtenchdie yes, that's right. But we (I mean italian people) prefere to use the word "soldi" and not "denaro". Denaro is used as formal word. Soldi is informal, like your expression "what's up"..

kangadillo 1 year ago
@kangadillo that's right...the word "denaro" is not very used...Other words are not very used, like the verb "possedere" (it means to have), but we use another verb, "avere" (it always means to have). I make you an exemple with these words:
"Quanto denaro possiedi?" (How many money do you have?) = formal
"Quanti soldi hai?" = not formal
