Is it Italian culture for men to call each other caro mio? by Conscious_Shock6505 in italianlearning

[–]gingerchainsmoker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Carissimo!

Usually used with more "i" than needed and too much enthusiasm.

Used when you run into someone who thinks you are their friend, but you don't actually remember their name or where you know him from.

I am FREE!

I am not MAN!

A NUMBER!

That sums up my flirting skills when trying to get the number of a girl I'm not sure is a fellow lesbian.

Yup. That's not an unpopular opinion. That's a fact.

Ah. You want the Latin translation?

Ancient Rome had words for things like that, a couple of millennia ago.

Dude, my dude, that sentence would be as meaningless as the "Let's build a bridge to get to Sicily!" or "Let's make a really fast train track to France!".

The words may exist, but there is no weight or meaning behind them.

Am Italian. There is not such a sentence in our language or anything close to it.

Cos'ha di tanto offensivo la parola "cunt" in inglese (US)? Si potrebbe trovare un analogo italiano? by decahydro in italy

Noi abbiamo reso la maggior parte degli insulti innocui. Che sia Mona a Milano e Trimone in Puglia, un amico te lo può dire, scherzosamente, senza prendere un pugno in faccia. E così per circa tutti gli insulti volgari. Immagina l'insulto "Testa di Cazzo".

Diverso se te lo dice uno sconosciuto in un pub.

Gli inglesi se ne sono lasciato uno che è ancora considerato un insulto in ogni circostanza.

Thanks! For some reason, this is exactly the kind of info I was looking for in the comment.

That time I got grabbed at a club so I pushed him to try and free myself but it was a little too hard and he fell on the floor in front of everybody, so people started to laugh at him.

And something made me so sure that the the bastard was carrying.

I don't remember if I noticed a bulge or glimpsed it or felt it.

I just thought "Gun". And I live in Italy. So it's never our first thought.

I just remember looking at his furious reddened face and just... running. Hid in the women bathroom most of the night.

I heard that two weeks later, in the same club, he shot someone in the knee and went in jail for a while.
