There is an italian girl I like and I'm watching this just to surprise her with some of these expressions and make her laugh. Wish me " in bocca al lupo" guys!
cant go wrong using formal tone, lol he just said be careful bc some of these are not polite, so might not want to start out with these phrases bro lol
0:41 I like the “Dai” it reminds me of the word “yalla”. We use it like every time we speak. Thanks you for this video I’m a Syrian girl and love the Italian language😊❤️.
Alberto! So great to see your face! Even though the video was from a year ago! You are a shining light… thank you, and I hope you and your family are well. Hugs from Maraika
Grazie tante, Alberto! It's ok if the language is maybe a little coarse or impolite! We're all friends here, no? Dai! And thanks for the great video again. Three times is the rule! Una bella cane! 🇮🇹🇺🇸
Cute puppy!🥰 I am not Italian, but somehow I got into a habit of saying mamma mia quite often in my daily life 😂 I just love everything Italian and I’m super curious about learning more. Thank you for sharing 🤗
It's a beautiful language I was convinced to learn it when I heard someone reciting the divine comedy in Italian and even though I didn't know what he was saying I was moved to tears. Learn Italian and live la vita bella
Thanks for the lesson! Very helpful! I'm an English teacher so I can't help but comment. Slang is not countable. Better to use the word expressions. :)

Buongiorno, volevo fare una domanda? C’è un video in cui tu usi questa frase: Sabato è un giorno dove mi rilasso! In questa frase è corretto usare “dove” ? Grazie
Can you help me figure out what word Paulie Walnuts is saying at around 42 seconds: "They pay this ___ by the word?" ua-cam.com/video/RcKp3wyNOt0/v-deo.html
I wouldn't translate "cavolo" as damn. Because the fact that you use "cavolo" is because you're avoiding curse words in order to use it in more polite company. I would say it's more like "heck" What the heck! Che cavolo! (you see, instead of using 'hell' or 'caz##") Enjoyed your video. I would use mannaggia for damn, no? :-)
Nice video. I'd like to see a video of an American telling the waiter "che schifo questa pizza!" years ago when I learning Italian I was staying with a host family and when the mother asked me if I wanted more food, I said "Non me ne frega niente"! Eh. I had understood that it was an ok way to say "No, that's ok".
I have a terrible memory. I've watched this video many times and can't remember 10 simple words/phrases..... except 'basta", my Nonna always yelled that at us kids.
@@italianforamericans2416 I will try this. I am also following your Slow Italian series. I am going to give it a good effort and see how effective this type of language learning is. Thank you, ciao
Hii! Thanks for the video!!!:) Sooo I heard that "che figo" is not a very polite expression and I'm wondering... Is "che bello" a good substitute? For "cool"? It's also used by young people, right? Or maybe only older?
E cazzo? Non possiamo mai dimenticare di cazzo! La mia parola preferita 😂 Grazie mille per il video fratello! Sono latino e mi piace questa lingua meravigliosa!
1. Dai sbrigati! Dai forza! (Hurry up!) 2. Basta! Sono stufo delle tue scuse! (Enough) 3. Boh! (I don't know) 4. In bocca al lupo! (Break a leg) 5. Figurati! (Don't mention it) 6. Che schifo! (How gross!) 7. Cavolo (damn) 8. Magari (maybe/I wish)
@@SamHowell7582 someone suggested "are you working hard or hardly working"... maybe "are you trying hard or hardly trying"... an approximate translation is "are you for real?"

1:05 If you go to Naples or Regione Campania, you will hear "IAMM" (Andiamo), or "IAMM JA" (which is stronger 💪😁 )
LOL so true
I hope you stay well during this pandemic Alberto!
Hey Marshall, thank you for the concern. We're alla fine! :)
Alberto!
So great to see your face!

Ciao Maraika, un abbraccio. =)
'BASTA' and 'MAMA MIA' are used in Flemisch as well. But less and less. (Flemish: Dutch that is spoken in Flanders - Belgium). Thanks for the video !!
Interesting!
It's full of Italians in that land. And many died mining a long time ago.
Ik heb nog nooit gehoord van Basta maar wel Mama mia! Inderdaad, zijn er veel italianen in België. Intereasant dat "basta" gebruikt wordt in België
I love your personality in your videos. You seem very kind!!! Hope you're doing well.
I’m 1:30 in and I’ve already learned the two most important sayings to me 😂 “come on” and “stop”
This is great! Thank you
What a charming young man.
Sono contenta di trovare questo informazione. Grazie mille.
Somos tocayos. My second name is Alberto. 😂

In bocca al lupo Alberto👌
Just think up until now I was able to live without these Italian slang words. You changed all that Alberto lol.
The dog is so cute🙀😭❤
Thank you! 😃

Totally disagree slang is adopted by the locals so really is not slang just informal which in many cases is great.
He didn't mean this at all.

How do I say "stop hitting me"?

Sì, nella frase "dove" sta per "in cui/nel quale".
POV: Duolingo being the most formal and rude way of speaking languages. La mela per favore

Schifoso!!! My first, and favorite, Italian word I learned when I was little. 😆
My kids and grandkids use it too! ☺️ 🥰🇮🇹❤️
En Argentina decimos Dale! (Dai). Basta! (Basta).

how can it be * that * hard lmao
mamma mia, figo video😄
Bondi da australia 🇦🇺
È video figo
Piccola correzione
Hii! Thanks for the video!!!:)
Sooo I heard that "che figo" is not a very polite expression and I'm wondering... Is "che bello" a good substitute? For "cool"? It's also used by young people, right? Or maybe only older?
Yes, “che bello” it’s a good substitute but many young people don’t say it because they are not very polite (I’m Italian)
but there are much worse words
it is polite, but it is quite unformal, but it's really used
Sweet doggie!
*sits down*
*likes it*
*wags tail patiently*
E cazzo? Non possiamo mai dimenticare di cazzo! La mia parola preferita 😂
Grazie mille per il video fratello! Sono latino e mi piace questa lingua meravigliosa!
In Palermo they yell "MAAAAAAA" often, what does that mean?
I think that mean mom (sometimes I use “MAA” to call my mum but just some people say it)
1. Dai sbrigati! Dai forza! (Hurry up!)
2. Basta! Sono stufo delle tue scuse! (Enough)
3. Boh! (I don't know)
4. In bocca al lupo! (Break a leg)
5. Figurati! (Don't mention it)
6. Che schifo! (How gross!)
7. Cavolo (damn)
8. Magari (maybe/I wish)
I just think of Mamma mia by ABBA
haha true!
👏👏👏
what is it ?
equesto ... de ganco
please fill the blanks
Mama Nia ❤
I’m very curious how “cabbage” became a curse word.
I like YOU SHOULD LIVE SO LONG
Ahhhh.. Daaai Betina....
DAI CAZZO!...oppss scusa...DAI CAVOLO!
Now i know why i heard a dog drinking water in the background 😅
Mama Luke means idiot. I use this a lot. 😂😂😂
Mammalucco, this is the right Italian word
They should restore the Colosseum. Football can turn just as brutal as gladiator sports.
Boh is a strange word for me :D
hahah we use it a lot!
I grew up thinking cula was an English word. When I used it at school people didn’t understand what I was saying I fell on my cula.
Ops :|
How to say Big Dawg in Itilian
It could be translated as 'amicone', 'fratello'.
The problem with Figo is it would be really easy to mess up and say Figa instead!
👏
Omg i like u
As a native Italian I suggest to avoid to Say "boh" meaning I don't know: It would make you sound dumb and dismissive at the sale time
It is "vorresti al cinema con me stasera" not verresti?
Do you mean "Vorresti venire al cinema..."?
"Vorresti al cinema con me stasera" is not correct in Italian.
figurati: you figure
Where in Italy do you live? Are you feeling ok? And your family?
Ciao Felicia, we live in Brescia. We're all fine, thank you :D
non si puo' imparare l'italiano senza le bestemmie
Ti prego, di che non gesticoliamo sempre come dei cretini.
Forse.
hahaha!
Cifra is slang for expensive? Cifralo = it’s expensive.
this guy def knows a guy
Che ne so io
when someone annoyed in it Italian
che fastido smetila
Non sono d'accordo. Se qualcuno mi dice: in bocca al lupo "io rispondo" viva il lupo" non "crepi".
È vero, anche se c'è tanta gente che dice: "Crepi!".
The Ultimate Hint:
MAAMMMAA MIAAAAAA
hahahah
What is English of scooch amend?!!!!! 😂
Sorry spell check: scootch amenz!!
Non ho capito perché considera BASTA uno slang. Secondo me è sbagliato
Mama Mia
try to translate in English. "ma ci sei, o ci fai?"
ahah difficult!
Are you really it? Or you're just roleplaying it? ... No, non suona bene...
@@SamHowell7582 someone suggested "are you working hard or hardly working"... maybe "are you trying hard or hardly trying"...
an approximate translation is "are you for real?"
the phrases are not very polite because not a single serious italian use 2 words without swearing in the middle...
Grazie
Prego :)
