Didn’t know the Mamba spoke multiple languages. Pretty awesome to see so many similarities in 3 different languages. Thanks for sharing.

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

Yes, he also spoke a decent amount of Spanish as well...a true Renaissance man!

[@gabrielrabelo2589]

Eu nunca vi um estrangeiro pronunciar tão bem português, principalmente palavras com (ão, ões), o som delas são nossa pegadinha para reconhecer estrangeiros. Parabéns mano! ;)

Por supuesto! jajaja

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

Grazie!

[@listenup2882]

He was born in Italy so no surprise there

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

He was actually born in Philly and lived in Italy from ages 6 through 13. Still impressive he was still able to speak pretty well after all those years away from Italy imho

[@vijays6911]

how good is his italian?

[@DecodingWordswithAndrew]

Considering that he only lived in Italy from ages 6-13 and pretty much lost contact with the language when he left the country, it's impressive he was still able to speak pretty fluently after all those years. Even though he would make little grammatical mistakes here and there, based on what a lot of Italians say his accent was still almost native-like.
