Because you can!

As a Singaporean Chinese, I am so envy! How can I learn Latin and Roman Language fast when all the people around me don’t even speak Roman. Sigh 😔....

Yes. I speak spanish and it's kind of the same for me

I'm learning Italian and I'm still surprised at how much Spanish I can understand.

@@jojololo3694 - here's a trick I've learned. Watch children's tv shows. They speak in simple terms and often concentrate on a single theme per episode. This makes it easier to understand what they're talking about, and they generally speak a little slower too. Good luck!

they're based on Latin, the Holy Roman Empire still lives!

Ahaha

You are a legend.

If you go to joyoflanguages.com there's a lot of '5 minute Italian' podcasts by Katie and Matteo. Sometimes a bit longer than 5 minutes, but they are always a lot of fun to listen to. Highly recommend.

How are Italian Americans?

Italians in NYC are different because most of the times they're there with the only goal to succeed in their professional life. They don't have time and the right mindset to enjoy life like Italians living in Italy, closer to their families and roots do. I was one of them until two years ago then I decided I needed to move back. Italian Americans most of the time are almost completely disconnected to their Italian roots culturally and mentally speaking.

@@sylbakers2349 That's very unfortunate. My experience is quite different. I grew up in a close-knit Sicilian community in San Diego's Little Italy. Most of the people I grew up with including myself are children of more recent immigrants. We grew up speaking the dialect and I myself studied Italian in school. We were brought up with a strong sense of the Sicilian culture and had knowledge of where we came from and we are very close to one another. Most of us have very strong ties with Sicily and frequently visit our relatives as they also visit us. Both sides of my family are from the same town and my grandparents never sold their house which made things easier for our extended stays. Since my family were mostly fishermen, they chose San Diego because of the fishing industry, not to mention the Mediterranean climate we have here, we cure are own olives, dry our tomato paste in the sun, grow figs, citrus, etc. Their way of cooking wasn't altered like many places in the US. Most of us know one another and our local church is the cultural center in which we still have our religious processions and saints feasts. We would gather together at a local beach every Sunday during the summer, the local people would refer to it as San Diego's Italian Riviera. Those were the days but unfortunately with the newer generation, change is inevitable.

I do not think that is true.

@@sylbakers2349 ehmmm im italian and thats not true. In italy the only people who "don't worry about succeding in professional life and so they have time" are retired people and children. Everyone else is busy as hell, if they are nice is because they want to.

Laura Kramer ,le faccio tanti complimenti per il suo italiano perfetto ( e anche per la citazione latina ,che ogni italiano colto avrebbe usato in questo contesto ). :)

@@z.a.1237 sei molto gentile, il mio italiano è lontano dalla perfezione però è una lingua bellissima e la imparo ogni giorno 😊

@@laurakraemer9446 a me sembra perfetto ,sia per la grammatica sia per le espressioni che usa ( solo chi è molto fluente le può conoscere ). Ovviamente le auguro di migliorare sempre e di arrivare dove desidera , ma a me pare che la sua padronanza della lingua sia davvero esemplare. Fa tanto piacere leggerla e vedere come si appassiona alla nostra lingua ,veramente ! :) La ringrazio per questo. Buona serata.

A me piacciono quasi sempre i formaggi, e dico purtroppo, essendo generalmente grassi e difficili da digerire. Certo, ce ne sono dei tipi che non mi fanno impazzire come quelli molto stagionati e puzzolenti, quelli che paiono scaglie di sale e in più credo che mai assaggerei prelibatezze locali come il formaggio con i vermi sardo. Ho sempre detestato le interiora e la trippa, e la cosa strana è che quest'ultima l'ho "scoperta" in Calabria, dove ero presa in giro dai parenti perché neppure volevo assaggiarla, e poi mi hanno detto che è anche un piatto tipico della cucina di Roma, da cui provengo.

lol

I thought the Italians loved their vegetables considering that a lot of the recipes have some sort of vegetable in it.

@@mr.talldarkandhandsome4111 in fact we do it’s the italians in the video who are strange

I don't know the people they interviewed, but usually we Italians like cheese, and just one thìng; lasagna doesn't have a lot of cheese, just a little parmesan/grated cheese, usually italian dishes are not full of cheese

Actually there is not really melted cheese in lasagna, only a little bit of parmesan in between layers and on top

@@thiscrazymind Oh, I know it's not traditionally made with other cheese. But we're a cheese fanatic family's, so the recipe was modified. Plus - when my kids were young, they would eat anything as long as it was covered in melted cheese, so I hid a lot of veggies between the layers! 😊 And they never knew.

The white stuff inside the lasagne is not melted cheese but bechamel sauce, this kind of sauce is made with butter, flour, milk and grated nutmeg.

@@marinam.2293 there is ricotta and/or mozzarella in southern Italian lasagna. The "authentic" lasagna most people think of (the one with bechamel) is the Bolognese variety, but the more Italian-American style, as most Italian-American food, was influenced by the cuisine of southern Italy.

well said! italians who don’t like cheese whaaat, i’m italian and we together with the french have the best cheese in the world!

I feel so bad for not mentioning Manchego! Dear cheese God please forgive me :)

In Italy no one calls mozzarella and ricotta "cheese"

@@seraph9384 they are cheeses you idiot. Mozzarella, ricotta sono tutti tipi di formaggio?? Se non sono formaggio cosa sono? Che poi quando dici “mozzarella, ricotta ecc” non dici “formaggio di mozzarella, formaggio di ricotta” ovvio ma comunque sono sempre dei formaggi

@@francesca_415 Ma chi cazzo li ha mai chiamati formaggi ma dai. Io li chiamo latticini.

In the last maybe 20 years or so, in the U.S. pizza is sold with just about everything on top, even salad and vegetables. I just had some with pineapple and ham. I liked it. I don't get the salad pizza, but my daughter loves it.

@9:21 this one?😂

Actually strange enough a lot of people that I know here in Italy tend to not consider mozzarella or ricotta as “real cheese” but more something on their own, even if they are 100% cheese, the cheese the they were talking about is probably something a bit more like fontina or emmenthal

This park in Milan was inaugurated in 2018 and is called Library of trees because it is compared to a library for the vegetation that houses, among more than 100 different species, 500 trees arranged in 22 rings and 135,000 plants. The park is then enriched by poetic phrases arranged along the paths, a children's play area, a fitness area, a relaxation area with wooden chaise longue and soft lighting, picnic areas equipped with benches, a labyrinth of bushes, a pond. and a scenic fountain active from May to September.

We have tuna pizza here in Italy, but without the cheese

It depends on palates 😄 personally the saffron feels like melted plastic to me. But I know it being a problem of specific receptors of the tongue being misplaced. The same with parsley: it's awful to me, almost as mold or wet dog hair, while others enjoy it like it were fresh mint leaves. I read this on Google.

@@Robycesa78 - this! I hate avocado. To me it tastes like peppery dirt. And it's slimy. I don't like the taste, I don't like the smell, I don't like the texture, I don't like the aftertaste, I don't like the weird feel it leaves in my mouth, heck I don't even like the colour of it. Just yuck. And walnuts to me, taste the way musty, old wardrobes smell. No thanks.

@@Luubelaar Even that when put in a sushi rice ball?

@@Robycesa78 yes. I just can't eat a thing if it has avocado on/in it. It overwhelms every other flavour and all I can taste is peppery dirt.

It was filmed in Milan, northern Italy.

Prima di tutto, non volermene, Katie e Matteo, ma forse un argomento del genere non è proprio di vostro gusto, visto i video che fate. Ti consiglio di dare un’occhiata al canale Vaporetto Italiano, che ha fatto dei ottimi video sul congiuntivo.

Who actually eats pizza with pineapple ? I tried it once. It tastes like barbecue sauce. I’m American and I’ve never seen anyone eat except to try it once.

I love it...and know many other people from all over like me. Let us eat what we like and stop the hostility.

Io odio il fegato!

il pepe nel salame - hai proprio ragione!!! E' come una brutta sorpresa nell'ovetto Kinder!

Ti pare che quattro o cinque persone che dicono di non mangiare formaggio possano essere rappresentative di tutti gli italiani, cioè 60 milioni di persone?

Il Cervello dicevano che fa bene ai bambini ma è terrificante...

I'm italian, I wouldn't say "farmers". A common pizza in Italy goes from "margherita" or "bufala" (this one is margherita with buffalo milk mozzarella, while margherita contains simple cow milk mozzarella) to 2-3 different toppings (usually). But every pizzeria has a special pizza, with 4-5 toppings, but these pizzas aren't so commonly ordered. It's usage to call these ones "american (USA) pizzas" (sorry for all USA people), in order to say that there are too many toppings that you can't tell all the flavours. In Italy pizzas are totally different from USA. Our ones have way less dough, less toppings (usually), so generally in Italy a pizza stands for a meal. When eating pizza in restaurants, generally everyone has their own pizza. Instead, while eating it at home we tend to sample every pizza, generally no one has their own, but we taste a slice of everyone. Furthermore, in Italy, pizza is a typical dinner dish. It's uncommon seeing someone italian eating it at lunch. P.S. if tou want to taste the REAL italian pizza, eat it in the Campania region (Naples' region)

@@erminiorovani9445 Cheers Erminio... I like simple Ita;ian style pizzas... not the giant US style ones...
