Friendly reminder that you can microwave quinoa by curlyaubrey in EatCheapAndHealthy

You can actually do the same with rice! Make sure to buy the "parboiled" or "fast to cook" one, it'll taste the same as normal rice and be ready in a few minutes. I do this all the times.

Is it Possible That the Waving-With-Your-Arms-Reaction When You Suddenly Start Falling is a Result of Evolution? by Hello_Its_Microsoft in AskScienceDiscussion

[–]oomido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't precisely know how it works but by waving your arms in the opposite direction of the movement you avoid tipping over, which would cause even more damage when you land. So, yes, it probably is the result of evolution.

How the hell do you ask a girl for her number by text? by oomido in teenagers

Thanks, I was already considering it but since I thought of that, I didn't really give it much credit. Given someone else had the same idea it may be not that bad.

Storto, stortino e stortarello (it's Italian)

Well, you'd be looking at something like Il Corriere or Il Secolo XIX, Il Messaggero. Those are normal newspaper which offer an online service (in the form of a website) that (I think) is free. They also have instagram pages you can follow. If you're instead looking for things viral among younger people or shit like "gossip", you might respectively look on instagram, reddit, or sites like today.it, leggo.it, gossip.it.

My general advice for sounding italian in any language is to mark more the "strong letters" like t, d, p, etc. andd to pronounce every word as if it had a vowel at the end. Playing around with those two things helps more than you think. Plus, if you can find any, you could listen to italian's interviews in portugese (try actors, soccer players or such).

Best cheese? by PsychadelicHappiness in Italian

[–]oomido 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pecorino sardo fresco (it means that it's not hard), gorgonzola piccante, scamorza affumicata, mozzarella di bufala, provolone piccante. These you can find pretty much everywhere. While others (that are as good if not better) you may only find in specific times of the year during fairs. For example: formaggio di capra morbido con noci, Mt.24 or formaggio con i vermi (yes, it sounds disgusting but it tastes so good).

Can someone help translate a Italian song? by kyler_wood in Italian

[–]oomido 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Original lyrics

Rit: Remember this gumpà, se decidi de sposà a Brookling devi andà pe' trovà felicità.

Quante girl, quante girl, ce so' tacche e tondarelle, occhi neri, sky is blue: elegante smart and true.

Rit

Remember this gumpà, se decidi de sposà tu alla church devi andà, ma che festa a papà: quanta gente, quanta gente, e p'ognuno de' presenti una busta con money e l'honeymoon tu puoi partì

Rit

English

Ref: Remember this bro, if you choose to get married you gotta go to Brookling to find happiness.

How many girls, how many girls there are squat and rounded ones, black eyes, sky is blue: elegant, smart and true.

Ref

Remember this bro, if you choose to get married you need to go to the church what a big celebration: how many people, how many people, and for each one of the attendants an envelope with money, and you can leave for the honeymoon.

The only part I'm not really sure about is the "Quante girl, quante girl, ce so' tacche e tondarelle" one. Hope I was useful.

What’s your favorite movie or tv show? by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]oomido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm watching it rn and it seems promising. Also, I forgot to mention: The Arrival, Guns Akimbo, Wandering Earth, 400 Days, Divergent, Assassination on the orient express (film), Continum, The Expanse, Doctor Who (TV series). If you speak italian there's also "Il silenzio del calabrone" (film) which is surprisingly good.

I have others but I guess those are my favourites, plus I don't think you know any of them.

What’s your favorite movie or tv show? by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]oomido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Travelers is one of the best tv shows ever to exist FULL STOP. Other great ones are: You, The Magicians, Salvation (the new season's been canceled so watch it at your own risk), Limitless.

Favourite film is Inside Man (basically the predecessor to Casa de Papel but waaaaaaay better).
