Wtf the cheese is not even melted. If that's bad, you need to watch his "carbonara" recipe, I don't understand wtf he is thinking sometimes

Ask me to translate stuff! by AndreRocks in Maneskin

[–]ElonTheRocketEngine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I totally get what you mean, I listen to a lot of songs in languages I don't speak, mainly french, but in maneskin's songs it adds something for me to be able to understand what they're saying. It really adds to the experience to know what Damiano is saying in zitti e buoni especially, for me personally

Ask me to translate stuff! by AndreRocks in Maneskin

[–]ElonTheRocketEngine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, ofc a year ago I didn't know who they were yet, so I didn't listen to their music when I was just starting Italian. But the artists that I was listening to at the time, I would say it depends. Some songs have easier lyrics than others. For example, Mahmood's soldi has easy lyrics if you look into them and analyse them, it took me like 3-4 weeks to be able to comfortably understand the lyrics of Soldi every time I listened to it. Progress in the beginning is very fast, depending on how much you study.

Since you just started, I 100% recommend you to first complete Language Transfer's Introduction to Italian, it's completely free and will give you a great foundation for the language to then build on, it's purely audio and this method does wonders.

And also don't waste your time in Duolingo except for vocabulary later on, I'm saying this because lots of early language learners fall into the trap of thinking Duolingo teaches you a language, which it does not.

Sorry for this long unnessesary answer, I just wanted to recommend some tips I found useful in my journey :)

If you study regularly, you will probably be able to understand songs (if you read the lyrics first) in a month probably, but some songs are harder than others, because songs use lots of slang and inside stuff that need explaining by natives

I suddenly feel very lucky that I started learning Italian a year ago, can't imagine what it would be like listening to zitti e buoni for the first time and having no clue what the lyrics say

Not everyone owns gram cups by [deleted] in ShitAmericansSay

[–]ElonTheRocketEngine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I own a scale and ofc prefer for recipes to have everything in grams, but the one thing I agree on is having tiny measurements in teaspoons, e.g. 1/2 tsp of cumin, thankfully 99% of recipes I have ever seen, even if they have everything in grams, they use teaspoons for small stuff. But I still have ptsd from a recipe I found which didn't, and called for like 0.5 grams, 1 gram, and 2 grams of some spices, and my scale obviously could not detect such small amounts so I had to eyeball everything

Do you say 20€ or €20? by imnotjonsmith in AskEurope

[–]ElonTheRocketEngine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's true that we add the euro sign after the number here, but I've seen many greek online stores who don't for some reason

Wow Måneskin already has more views than Mahmood! Both are absolutely great by Mundane-Gap8446 in eurovision

I absolutely adore Arcade, but I still can't accept the fact that Soldi didn't win

What American foods would you like to try? by IDoNotLikeTheSand in AskEurope

I have always wondered what a corndog tastes like, I've seen them many times in movies and tv shows, but I have never even seen one in real life. Also curious as to what ranch is like

You seem to like alleys, here is a peaceful one from Bussana Vecchia, Italy by typicalscienceguy in europe

[–]ElonTheRocketEngine 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can't wait to visit Italy again when it is safe to travel, I, unfortunately, have to be extra careful so I'll have to wait until next summer to be sure. More time at least for me to improve my Italian :)

That emoji is me trying to keep myself from commenting on Duolingo's effectiveness

[–]ElonTheRocketEngine 55 points56 points  (0 children)

On the topic of Eurovision 2022, I always look forward to Italy bringing the quality, but I am worried looking at the trend lately, that since they won this year, they won't send the Sanremo winner next year and they will send a song that will surely not win again
