    As an "cultured" roman I feel slightly embittered by this video, but not only for the "unsophisticated" portrait of the romans (we are three million inhabitants, I doubt that the romans are all "coatti" - as we use to say here in Rome), but also for the generalization addressed to every region that is below Tuscany. Moreover, precisely with regard to Tuscany, having visited it numerous times, I could safely say that there are very "easy-going" Tuscans, just like there are Romans like that. I perceived a very "Nordic-centric" and at times snooty vision. Pity. I don't like the video, although I'm sure that Stefania had no intention of offending.
    I hope in the future in more accurate videos also on the southern regions (Campania, Sicily, Calabria and Puglia), perhaps with southern Italian guests who give an indigenous point of view.

      Yeah, I am just feeling the same. Probably she did not mean to offend, but her point of view of the southern people actually is quite offensive and stereotyped. And also, false, 'cause a also people in Milan can sound like low class, to say the least

      @nicoladc89 Před rokem +3

      Well, of course she given a Nordic-centric vision, but I don't thing snooty vision. But yes a lot of cliché.
      Anyway I've always loved the Roman diversity inside the same city, only about speaking, I think there are - I don't know - 3 or 4 accents/languages and one of these is probably the best "popular" Italian spoken in the peninsula (then there is the Standard Italian spoken only by dubbers and radio hosts). A lot lot lot lot better than the "gorgia toscana" used in Tuscany. If you listen a person talking in a really good Italian or is a professionist that work with the voice or a Roman.
      But too often the Romans are described as "Romanacci".
      The "coatti" style (the Jeeg Robot style) is probably the most visible from away (you know more "noisy"), coatti is a Roman word at the end.
      But is the same with the "milanesi", not all the milanesi are technologic (see bauscia) and not all the "milanesi" say "taac". But that's the most visible part of Milan.
      It's the same for the Germans always described as "cold and hard" with that hard accent, but all the Germans I've ever met were "cute and cuddly".
      Literally she spent real good words only talking about Milan, she described Venice as bad and smelly (and she is right to be honest) and not a word about a millenial city or the Republic of Venice which lasted longer than the Roman Empire (western). And she described the milanesi like the only people that work hard in Italy.
      Anyway, in the eye of a tourist all the people are "easy-going" because tourists meet only people that have to be so. You can see the real life of a city only living in it. I always say "for tourist the center of Verona is a beautiful historic place blabbla, for me is bestemmie a trovare parcheggio".

    The fact that you don't like accents coming from the southern regions is apparently linked to a stereotype rooted in an imbalance of economic and social status between the North and the South of the country. Overcoming appearances and stereotypes requires a leap forward in our ability of abstract thinking, but it's definitely worth it.

      She's right. It is not a difference due to the economy and social outline but things are a bit different even though she's explained best she could. Rather I'd say it is a cultural difference which is massive even across the regions as wherever you go Florence, Rome, Naples, Catania everything is visually and culturally different, we, the south speak more dialect and it is more pronounced in our pure italian because we are by standard more defined by our culture and land, where we are from and usually people here take pride in it, the previous generation more than the ones that followed anyway, we are loud because we tend to express our personality in a different way, we like to show ourselves, show the way we think and who we are, it is not coutryside-like but it is obviously less refined. The north on the other hand tend to be more sophisticated, place more value in a formal education and take pride in having more refined taste for lack of better terms. This of course reflects and is reflected by the economic situation, the south doesn't have much opportunity also becuase it is still achored by its tradition and people value themselves more on the social value they can bring to other people but more often than not we don't identify with our jobs and while people may work really hard they don't strive more than needed. The North and especially Milan is more business-minded, they are more focused on the development of their carreer and as a result, like she said, services are more efficient and have priority. The South doesn't work well and it isn't efficient but sure everyone can tell people are different, they are more smooth and chilled, humour as well I'd say. The North compensate what we generally lack.Clearly I tried to explain my view of the standard and the average but things vary and are not so strict.

    Sicily has an incredible history, is incredibly rich in culture, people that mixed up together, wars, colonization almost from any part in Europe. You can just look at Wikipedia to just have a vague idea of how incredibly rich this land is. Mafia is just a little part of it and derivates from the times when Sicily was annexed to modern Italy.

I studied Italian intensely for about a month before going and was able to learn enough to get around and do the things I needed to do. For awhile in Rome we had a personal tour guide from Sicily. We were following him on foot and he led us to cut through what I’m pretty sure was a restricted area. The guard was giving us the eye with weapon in hand. But our tour guide Salvatore was oblivious. I told Salvatore that I don’t think we are supposed to walk through there and hoped we didn’t get in trouble. He said “Italy has too many rules. I can’t remember them all, so I ignore them all.” 😂

      English tends to be more conservative in its borrowings form latin, this is because in Italian the word changed over 2000 years of speaking, whereas borrowings enter the language at a later date so the change is less:
      Exit, latin exitus/exire, italian uscire/uscita
      Conduct, Latin conducere/conductus, It. condotto/condurre
      There are many other examples of this, it's just the difference between inherited words and borrowings.
      You even have the same thing happening within the same language:
      Latin Angustia, italian angoscia (inherited) and angustia (later re-borrowing)
      Latin bestia, italian biscia (inherited, now slang for snake) and Italian bestia (later re-borrowing)

    I think that Stefania doesn’t know much about the South of Italy, except for the same old stereotypes. Criminality is everywhere and is of course well hidden. Mafia is not only in Sicily and it’s a very small tiny part of the population. You can be robbed in Milan just as in Naples or in London. All the big cities have pickpockets. People from the North have accents too and they’re not considered fancy at all. They’re only different from the South’s ones but people from the North tend to be snobbish about it. Rome can’t be considered countryside and technologies are everywhere from North to South. Moreover Rome is probably the most important city in Italy as the government headquarters are there as well as some of the most important monuments in the world (I’m not Roman). And about the laziness, it is only the same old stereotype. Maybe in the South there’s a bit more of a relaxed life style but it’s more about hospitality, family, holidays and friendship. I find so offensive the way she talked about people she doesn’t even know and it makes me sad that an Italian person spreads even more misinformation and prejudice about her own country. I suppose we shouldn’t complain if Italy is still known for pizza, mafia and mandolino.

    I don't think a person from Veneto should be asked to talk about Naples, it was obvious that she would say "When I think about Naples I think about pickpockets". Well, that's not something you would say when you think about Naples (if you're not someone of norher Italy, of course lol). Naples is the 3rd city in Italy. It's not just "pizza, pickpockets and great landscape near there". It's way more than just that. We, in Naples, are really proud of our pizza because yes, the original pizza everyone in the world try to imitate is the napoletana one, I like pizza every place I travel to but there's no a pizza in the world as good as the pizza you can eat in here. Yes, it's also true that pickpockets are a fact in Naples, but that's not far from what you get in Milan, Rome, Barcellona or New York City lol We're talking about big cities where there are a lot of tourists and a lot of poor people too, so that's why pickpockets are a fact (in Naples too, of course, just like in any other big city). She got the risk 3 times in 1 hour, I would call it bad luck: I've been living in Naples for 30 years and my wallet always reached home, even when I went to the center or to Scampia (where Gomorrah series is based) lol Naples is also a lot of other incredible food you can find nowhere else, a lot of culture and history (I'm not mentioning how, it would take so long... but we're 2nd only to Rome, just to get an idea), a city of kind people, etc... I also found rude she mentioned Rome as "to me they look like countryside people when they talk", that's not really kind... it's just you having a problem with other dialects from Lazio to the rest of the south Italy... we (from south/center) would probably say that "people from Veneto looks like they're not that awaken when they talk", but I would never say that to a foreigner and while making a video for CZcams... Rome and south Italy is actually the real face of Italy. When someone think about Italy they think about things that are based or born in Rome, Naples, Sicily, etc... 90% of Italy's image comes from the south. Sure, there's not only the south, there's also Venice and Milan. Bologna is a nice city too. I don't hate north (even if life was saddest there, I lived in there for a year... and Milano is not that magical as she mention, it's not a miracle as they try to appear, it's expensive for no reason, low quality of life due to stress and smog, and I didn't enjoy it in the night or even in the morning but outside the center, it didn't make me feel safe)... we're all italians, there's no need to hatespeech between north and south, but I can't stand when someone from north speak about the south without knowing what they're saying, based on stereotypes or unfortunate experiences (yes, I was near to be robbed 2 times when I was in north Italy... luckly I managed to get out of risk before they had the chance to approach... still I wouldn't say "omg north Italy is the land of pickpockets" lol). Best regards and everyone come to visit Naples, there are as many pickpockets as in the capital of your zone... or maybe less! :)

    • @SuperDarioCommunity
      @SuperDarioCommunity Před rokem +1

      ​@@itellyouforfree7238 That's because your mind is still set at years ago. I must admit it's a dirty city (not as much as New York City or others, but still dirty). I didn't find any other city in Italy that is so well cleanead anyway (apart from Como and... dunno where else). But yes, the fact remains: Naples is a dirty metropolis... no one would think, today, that every sidewalk is not walkable due to "a living garbage invasion" (that was REMOTELY true in 2008 or so... has been true in Milan and Rome too, anyway... but Naples "did it better" lol it has been solved more than 10 years ago anyway).
      About the shootings... I guess Gomorrah did a "great" job on that (don't get it wrong, I love Gomorrah) but all I can say is I never seen a shooting in my whole life lol Nor a bullet on the street pavement. Of all my friends and family, nobody has never been shot. I would say you get the same amount of shootings you get in other big cities.
      Maybe you should be worried about pickpockets more than those two things, in Naples ... but as I said, there is no need to fear so much for pickpockets, you can sum up.
      In my opinion you should take a train/airplane and see, knowledge is the best option against nescience (not meant as boorish ignorance, let specify).

    Sicilian was an early influence in the development of the first Italian standard, although its use remained confined to an intellectual elite. This was a literary language in Sicily created under the auspices of Frederick II and his court of notaries, or Magna Curia, which, headed by Giacomo da Lentini, also gave birth to the Sicilian School, widely inspired by troubadour literature. Its linguistic and poetic heritage was later assimilated into the Florentine by Dante Alighieri, the father of modern Italian who, in his De vulgari eloquentia, claims that "In effect, this vernacular seems to deserve higher praise than the others since all the poetry written by Italians can be called Sicilian".

Of course any region and city has its own dialect but why does she need to discriminate southern dialects??(as if Venetian dialect was this much better! They tend to use lots of curse words and blasphemies)
    Italy is just not made up of Veneto (luckily),this country is unique because of all the different cultural heritages you can get in touch with just moving from one region to another!
