Tommaso on the other hand, is an American with Italian background, like many are in Little Italy I assume. His Italian was the stereotypical one from films, though his singing was 10/10! Great video.
Giuseppe still talks a perfect italian, despite of he left Italy when he was only 10. That means he cared a lot about his roots. Respect. Another thing... check the way he avoids eye contact. So old school. Loved it.
He is not avoiding eye contact, checking everything around (police blue lights, dealers spots) is a typical behavior of someone who’s been into a criminal life. Not hating on him, just saying.
As an Eritrean with parents who are fluent in Italian, and most of my friends being Italian in germany, growing up seeing my dad speak Italian to my friends‘ parents must have been one of my proudest moments 😅😍🥰 been obsessed with everything Italy since I can remember. It’s the most stunning place we used to visit every year 🥺 I love you Italy & Italians with all of my heart per sempre 🤍🙏🏾
We Italians have much respect for the Eritreans, some of the bravest, proudest and most loyal people in Africa. Noi Italiani rispettiamo profondamente gli Eritrei, tra i più coraggiosi, orgogliosi e fedeli popoli africani.
I saw a video of some Eritreans speaking Italian, they have the most neutral accent ever, never heard somebody speaking that clearly in Italy. My accent wouldn't sound that standard if I tried.
I have been to Eritrea and it left me breathless. Exploring the streets of Asmara and sitting in one of the many cafes, jumping in the Red Sea in Massawa and crossing the countryside on that incredible road that borders the train tracks are experiences that I will never forget. Ciao!
Omg I'm Italian and your comment made me so happy and proud 🥺 unfortunately I've never met an Eritrean person before, but I know you are one of the kindest and bravest people ever. I really hope one day I'll be able to come and visit your country ❤️
Haha as an Italian, I remember the only time I went to a restaurant in little Italy, the waiter was so sure about his "Buongiorno" that I answered in Italian. When he understood we were Italians he practically fled away, as he actually didn't speak Italian haha Anyway, I love how you speak Italian 😍
Happens the same in Germany! In some Italian restaurants they just greet you in Italian then you speak Italian and they quickly back off haha funny but also quite annoying sometimes
@@Sim0sama yesss, of course! Even if he wasn't Italian but he spoke a little bit of our language, I was ready to help him practice, but he flew away (that was funny, not his attempt). I'm a language student (English and Swedish) and I really love to practice as often as I can, but unfortunately mother tongues are not everywhere 🙃
I’m Italian and I swear that for the first seconds I thoughts you were a native italian speaker, congratulations is really hard to hear American with such a perfect Italian pronunciation. There’re a lot of English native speakers who have a perfect Italian’s grammar and syntax but only few have also a very good pronunciation. Dovresti venire a trovarci in Italia, saresti più che benvenuto!
A giudicare da una pronuncia così perfetta, deve essere stato in Italia senza dubbio. Questo tipo di confidenza la prendi solo con la pratica sul campo
@@valerioborghese2916 Parla comunque meglio di tanti italiani che parlano con una forte inflessione dialettale. È vero che dopo un po’ che lo si ascolta ci si accorge che è anglofono ma è comunque un’ottima pronuncia per un americano, ripeto conosco moltissimi inglesi e americani che parlano un italiano perfetto dal punto di vista grammaticale e sintattico ma quando si tratta di pronuncia hanno serie difficoltà. Gli accenti e le vocali aperte o chiuse sono un dramma persino per me che in Italia ci sono nato, ci ho studiato e vissuto fino ad ora :)
He's pretty good, far from perfect. He made a lot of mistakes as well, but definitely better than those Italian Americans he was interviewing, tho Giuseppe seems the one who still retains some genuine Italian accent and intonation
As an Italian myself, it’s honestly rare to find non-Italian people speak our language so fluently and with such confidence, davvero complimenti amico mio! Keep up the good work, this video really made my day! 💗
Puedo entender italiano más o menos porque hablo español y me encanta la cultura.I can understand Italian more or less because I speak Spanish and I love the culture.Italians despite all the shit some of them went through here in the u.s years ago , discrimination that to lower extent is still happening today, despite this they never let anyone to get to them mentally.
I tried learning and it was hard to talk to people because most just want you to speak English or not at all or get irritated at lower level speakers.👁👁
Man, as an Italian your accent is so damn clean, way better than the people you spoke to. If I were to meet you I’d think you grew up in Italy and learnt it when you were young. The people you met probably grew up in some sort of italian/american mix and learnt some weird gibberish and aren’t fluent in neither language
The italian dialects of America are their own entities, they're not just "weird gibberish". Doesn't help that most of the Italian diaspora is from Southern Italy (especially Sicily), whose accents are already so distinct from the normal "proper" Italian that comes from the wealthier Northern areas.
The first guy was just Albanian. They're sometimes shy to reveal their nationality as they are afraid to be racially discriminated and they use to say that they are italian because they can manage to speak the language as they use to watch italian tv channels during their life in Albania.
Goes to show how pathetic American racial worldview is, (nobody should be discriminated against, just want to clarify) because Albanians are virtually indistinguishable from Italians, in fact Italians were HIGHLY discriminated against when they first made it (in mass) to the US during the late 19th century, Columbus day was solely created to mitigate the racial hatred Italians were facing so yeah, in one hand it seems silly he would hide his nationality, on the other hand seems almost ridiculously correct White Hispanics who wanted to become someone in America have always done the same, look at "Martin Sheen" aka Ramón Antonio Gerardo Estévez, Anita Page aka Anita Pomares or "Rita Hayworth" aka Margarita Carmen Cansino America is just a beautiful place where you could only succeed (until relatively recently) if you abandoned your identity and changed your name to an Anglosaxon one to appear "whiter" because Americans generally reject anything that doesn't sound Anglo
Man this guy has such a interesting personality. Hes one of those old youtube gems whos respectful and polite and extremely well spoken, someone who doesnt insult people or does nasty stuff for views. I was smiling throughout the video. God bless you man, keep making these amazing videos. Btw im genuinely interested to know where did you learn so many languages? And how did you perfect them?
Even though Giuseppe has been over there in NYC for 57 years I can say his pronunciation is awesome and if I heard him talking in Italy I wouldn't have any suspicion about him living in America for most his life
@@tonybutocini6149 that's not the point, the point is people take at face value that they actually speak Italian just because of where they live (that was the point) meanwhile they actually don't... it's all broken and/or with American accents.
@@tonybutocini6149 ....huh? Plenty of people live in countries where they don't usually need all the languages they are able to speak, yet are better at it than these "italians".
People hating on Tomasso, maybe it's because I'm not Italian but I really loved his charisma and performance almost like he used to work in theater lol
@@fromheaventoearth5779 yeah right, I recently found out he's actually kind of a popular street performer now I understand where the charisma comes from
Tommaso is American for Italians and i believe that Italians in Italy are quite different from Italian-Americans (often immigrants from southern Italy or emigrated to northern Italy and then to the US, Australia, Canada, UK, etc. Not even Italians from the south represent Italians in Italy in general, there are many differences between them: linguistics, temperament, habits, history, local traditions, regional gastronomy and even genetics! 2 or 3 years ago i had read a diatribe between Italians on Quora, from then on i deepened and a new world opened up to me: really curious and less homogeneous people than i imagined (i'm Russian) The history of Italy and the differences between Italians in Italy is a truly fascinating theme ...
As an Italian, congratulations! You speek very well and I know that Italian is a tough and complex language to learn! Fortunately, I've had the privilege of learning english at school so I can speak italian and english fluently. Cheers to you!
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 I never said anything about pronounciation, I simply said that learning the grammar rules of the Italian language can be a long process for foreigners, since they are hard.
@@GDino33 Yeah yeah I get it, I think that french, italian, spanish, german, portuguese and romanian are all beautiful languages! Unfortunately I can only speek italian, english, spanish and romanian. Cheers to you!
I am from Italy and this guys speaks GREAT Italian! I love it and I was psyched when he started speaking... He speaks Italian better than TomMaso (not TomasSo) and it's saying something, with all due respect for Tommaso (languages are not something easely remembered and if you don't speak them, you'll lose them). Also, one of my close friends is from Mola di Bari! I LOVE THIS VIDEO!
@@hecomments9373 tuo zio è italiano? Intendo non figlio di italiani all'estero, eh, ma italiano nato in Italia? Te lo chiedo senza la volontà di offendere o discriminare, ma solo perché spesso alle anagrafe fanno confusione! 😅 Comunque, in Italia il nome corretto e comune è Tommaso, che è anche il nome di un Santo.
Tomaso è una variante di Tommaso. Non è molto comune o popolare ma viene utilizzato ed è legittimo, nessun errore all'anagrafe. Questo in generale. Altra questione invece se il Tom(m?)aso del video abbia effettivamente 1 o 2 emme. Chi lo sa? Vero che in inglese non pronunciano la doppia consonante, dunque può essere semplicemente errore di pronuncia.
@@robyx4088 infatti Tomaso è una variante non comune. TomasSo, in ogni caso, è figlio di un inglesismo abbastanza frequente, chiaramente udibile anche nelle parole del Signore in questione. Oggi gli errori all'anagrafe sono estremamente infrequenti ma, in tempi compatibili con la data di nascita presunta del Tommaso nel video, invece lo erano molto di più.
Tomasso mixed different italian handgesture and dialects in the wrong way 😂 wannabe Italians Always kill me ☠️ Btw tanto amore from Italia😘 (Even his name Is incorrect)
@@efrainrondon5753 No, but we simply try to preserve our identity from the caricatures that come from America and that ruin the image of Italy! If in the movies we are represented as "Pizza, pasta, mafia and mandolin" or stuck in the 50's it is their fault! It's not even their fault honestly, because they really believe that what they have is Italian culture, but it's really just a bad caricature. It's their identity and OK, but it's not an Italian identity, that's what they can't understand! We have more in common with our Spanish or French cousins than with them, simply because they are AMERICANS and not ITALIANS. It is too easy for them to call themselves Italians if they don't even know how to indicate it on a geographical map! Obviously I am not speaking of everyone, but of those who do not know the language, culture or have never been here, but they continue to define Italians without a reason! On the other hand, Italian Americans who strive to know our way of life and who REALLY preserve our culture and spread it all over the world are welcome!
@@efrainrondon5753 he isn't being harsh, he's just saying that tommaso isn't really Italian, and at least from my point of view, if you are born and raised in a country you are 100% part of that country despite your parents nationality
@@benaz_ excluding someone from being considered Italian is very harsh. I'm from a nationality that has a huge diaspora and I would never exclude someone simply because they weren't born in the motherland. If anything I would try to educate them on the culture.
This Granit guy is a Legend, he was straight capping tho ,mother Croatian father Calabrese but they Give him an Albanian name, the dude looks 200% Albanian same as his accent(probably an Albanian from Kosovo,that explains the Fluency in Serbian/Croatian)and when he asks him where in Croatia is he from he says dubrovnik which is a city that lives only of tourism and the most of its tourist are Albanian,like someone pretending to be Spanish saying that they’re from Ibiza 🤦♂️ 😭
1) "looks 200% Albanian" Albanians and Italians are decently phenotypically diverense groups, plus they are geographically close and really don't differ that much from each other in looks, so there's no way in hell you would know whether someone is Italian or Albanian by looking at them, simply no way, they're indistinguishable, other factors might or might not give it away, such as accent or name like in this case, which is what gives you the bias to say he "looks 200% Alabanian" when in fact I have seen hundreds of Italians who resemble this guy and have nothing to do with Albania 2) Ibiza is an inhabited island, I live in Majorca (the island besides it) and go to Ibiza every so often, nearly 200 thousand people live in it
@@SiboWoW no way. Arberesh people knew italian 100% perfectly cause they were born in Italy. He has a strong albanian accent while speaking italian+ he doesnt know italian very well.

I like how you approach the people without condescension unlike another TH-cam video. She was walking around being judgy about people not speaking Italian in Little Italy.
How you switched from Italian to Croatian was so unexpected and smooth! Would love to know your life story, a guy from Kansas apparently knowing quite a bunch of languages!
Nice to see Tommaso on a TH-cam video. I met him during my honey moon in NY. He stopped me and my wife while we were walking along the streets and asked us if we wanted to stop and eat something in the resturant he was working. I told him that we had eat already and he asked me a cigarette hahahah, then he told me that he was from Sicily Palermo. Honestly he was the only america with Italian roots that I met in little Italy , the rest of them were all Albanians or Croatians.
@@goluremilanguages I know! ❤️ I wish you all the success in the world, (I know how hard can be to grow on TH-cam) J'attends ton prochain vidéo ! Son super motivadores! 🙌
Well they are both based on the original “Latin” so not really a surprise. Although to be fair, Portuguese is too and I have a tough time understanding it.
CIao 🖐😄 sono di Verona (northern Italy) e vedendo questo video ho pensato che tu avessi vissuto in Italia per vari anni, invece in un altro video dici che ci sei stato solo per qualche giorno...e quindi complimenti, sei molto bravo e hai un accento migliore di molti stranieri che si sono trasferiti qui e hanno studiato/lavorato per tanto tempo. Rispetto ad altri poliglotti che sono su TH-cam e spacciano l'Italiano come lingua che parlano (facendone in realtà solo una specie di parodia macchiettistica) tu sei forte! 👍
Well, the second man, Granit is Albanian, he said he was from Calabria, where many Arbëreshës live. They are called Arbëreshë because at times where some of them migrated from Albania to Calabria (because Ottoman conquest in Albania), one of most important Albanian principated was Arbëria, which then they united all in one principate.
Ah I didn't expect the part about either of them knowing Croatian! I understood some of the Croatian since I was taught a little bit by my mother who is Croatian. Its very nice that people know croatian!
Haha I love this video. My mum is Italian-American, but i've been working hard at learning Italian properly so this video was really helpful! You speak so clearly :)

Un video divertentissimo! That was super fun to watch! And the part where you speak Croatian and Italian was super interesting to watch for me. I’m from a region that borders with Slovenia and I go to Slovenia and Croatia all the time (well… At least I used to, before Covid): it made me laugh! Grazie!
Italy is the most beautiful country in the world. I am a proud Croatian, but Istria and Dalmatia are as beautiful as they are because of the Venetian Empire.
@@brilliantbeaches5389 that's so true! Passing by the Adriatic it's so clear the Venetian influence in the architecture along Istrian and Dalmatian coasts, everytime I go there I feel more like home then when I go in other parts of Italy 😆✨
I’m italian, I understood everything. This man said (5:45) “mannaggia alla miseria” which means “f*cking hell” but it’s not so vulgar. (5:48) now he said “Uagliò! Che s ric?” - “Ragazzo! Che si dice?” which means “Ehi what’s up buddy?”

Hey man, I'm new to your channel but this one video blew my mind! You're not only so fluent in the way you speak the language but I can tell that you've immersed yourself in the culture too! Your pronunciation and even your body language just drips swag my brother! Keep doing what you doing for real... Love✌ p.s. I've just subscribed too!
I come from an Italian/Jewish family, and one of the biggest regrets I have for my family is that my Italian side didn’t pass on the language to their children (my parents) or the grandchildren. I would’ve loved to grow up speaking it. It’s such a beautiful language. I learned Spanish in school, and to this day try to force myself to say things in Spanish in my head so I can retain it. Someday, I hope I can throw myself into Italian culture fully, so I can reconnect with my heritage, of which I’m very proud of.
I can relate to you slightly, but I have connected to my English culture so easily that I feel sorry for you that you cannot connect with the Italian heritage. It is a truly beautiful language, and I can speak a little bit since I have learn Spanish and speak in three languages. I speak Hindi, Gujarati and obviously English with an American and English dialects.
I relate with you, my family did not pass the language down, however they did pass down the culture and traditions as I was raised catholic and we did the Sunday dinners, homemade sauce and wines. Your family was probably very similar to mine as they did not want to look like foreigners when first moving to the us so instead they “assimilated” was a common practice back then
OKAY SOOOOO I’m Italian and I love watching videos of people speaking Italian hence I was watching this one and guess what I’m from Mola di Bari, the town on the Adriatic Giuseppe mentioned being his hometown !!!! This makes me so proud and it was such a surprise hahaha😭😭😭😭

Kudos for your Italian, it is pretty darn good. On the other hand Tomasso (which should actually be spelled Tommaso) speaks Italian like I could speak Mandarin! Strong accent, not so good prononciation, he might be from Palermo but at some point he throws sont Napoli slang....quite weird
Lmao it’s so funny at the end with Tomasso when he start speaking Sicilian it’s all ???? The slang there it’s so brutal. Especially from Palermo and montelepre. Roots run deep there. Shout out to my family in Sicily.

I ate in Giuseppe's restaurant at San Gennaro festival last September! Pizza is nice at his restaurant. The festival must have been awesome 100 years ago and it was certainly authentic! I guess the only real Italian people at last festival were Giuseppe and I! Still, it touched my heart very deeply!
@@outside5973 Giuseppe's restaurant is called Buona notte. It is not spelled buonanotte as we would in Italian, but two words separately (like good night). The pizza was nice, I had it in his outside garden with some umbrellas on top of my head which represent the colors of the Italian flag and are kept with some material that you cannot really see. It seems that they are kept in the air magically.
Mi piace molto questo video!! You speak Italian very well in my opinion. I love the language and wish to be as fluent as you in the future. Bravissimo 👏🏽

Puedo entender italiano más o menos porque hablo español y me encanta la cultura.I can understand Italian more or less because I speak Spanish and I love the culture.Italians despite all the shit some of them went through here in the u.s years ago , discrimination that to lower extent is still happening today, despite this they never let anyone to get to them mentally.
Italian is a difficult language to learn how to speak btw lol.
@@GDino33 really, even for you?
Sadly most of my Italian Americans friends didn’t speak Italian unless they are recent immigrants.
I tried learning and it was hard to talk to people because most just want you to speak English or not at all or get irritated at lower level speakers.👁👁
Man, as an Italian your accent is so damn clean, way better than the people you spoke to. If I were to meet you I’d think you grew up in Italy and learnt it when you were young. The people you met probably grew up in some sort of italian/american mix and learnt some weird gibberish and aren’t fluent in neither language
nah theyre definetely fluent in english, theyre just from new york lol
Cerra el.orto
Weird gibberish..bit like Yiddish.
The italian dialects of America are their own entities, they're not just "weird gibberish". Doesn't help that most of the Italian diaspora is from Southern Italy (especially Sicily), whose accents are already so distinct from the normal "proper" Italian that comes from the wealthier Northern areas.
How do you know they are not fluent? Such a generalization.
Your Italian is SOLID!!!!!!!!!
Devo dire che lo parla davvero bene l'italiano, oltre alla cadenza ha anche una padronanza incredibile...
The first guy was just Albanian. They're sometimes shy to reveal their nationality as they are afraid to be racially discriminated and they use to say that they are italian because they can manage to speak the language as they use to watch italian tv channels during their life in Albania.
Im albanian too , and can say 100 % the first guy is albanian from kosovo
It's crazy how Albanians in Calabria and Sicily kept their language for 600 years whereas Granit from Kosovo became Venezian.
@@Woozy69th Po👍🏻
È vero,sono albanese,e tutti i miei zii sanno parlarlo dato che da piccoli vedevano sempre film italiani
Goes to show how pathetic American racial worldview is, (nobody should be discriminated against, just want to clarify) because Albanians are virtually indistinguishable from Italians, in fact Italians were HIGHLY discriminated against when they first made it (in mass) to the US during the late 19th century, Columbus day was solely created to mitigate the racial hatred Italians were facing so yeah, in one hand it seems silly he would hide his nationality, on the other hand seems almost ridiculously correct
White Hispanics who wanted to become someone in America have always done the same, look at "Martin Sheen" aka Ramón Antonio Gerardo Estévez, Anita Page aka Anita Pomares or "Rita Hayworth" aka Margarita Carmen Cansino
America is just a beautiful place where you could only succeed (until relatively recently) if you abandoned your identity and changed your name to an Anglosaxon one to appear "whiter" because Americans generally reject anything that doesn't sound Anglo
Man this guy has such a interesting personality.
Hes one of those old youtube gems whos respectful and polite and extremely well spoken, someone who doesnt insult people or does nasty stuff for views. I was smiling throughout the video.
God bless you man, keep making these amazing videos.
Btw im genuinely interested to know where did you learn so many languages? And how did you perfect them?
Even though Giuseppe has been over there in NYC for 57 years I can say his pronunciation is awesome and if I heard him talking in Italy I wouldn't have any suspicion about him living in America for most his life
D'accordo!
I’m sure his parents spoke Italian more than english his entire life.
Except "ritirato" instead of "in pensione", but it's asking too much
I am Italian and British, living in Italy, and all I can say is that this guy is the best foreigner speaking my first language, Italian.

@@alexalbertosandro2251 it’s not a judgement it’s factual observation by someone who’s actually fluent.
Maybe its because they live in new york so they don't need to speak italian
@@tonybutocini6149 that's not the point, the point is people take at face value that they actually speak Italian just because of where they live (that was the point) meanwhile they actually don't... it's all broken and/or with American accents.

People hating on Tomasso, maybe it's because I'm not Italian but I really loved his charisma and performance almost like he used to work in theater lol
Only his name was italian lol
Yeah I liked him alot. But I hate seeing caricatures of Jamaicans so I think I see why the Italians are upset.
@@fromheaventoearth5779 yeah right, I recently found out he's actually kind of a popular street performer now I understand where the charisma comes from
@@joey8033 ah interesting
Tommaso is American for Italians and i believe that Italians in Italy are quite different from Italian-Americans (often immigrants from southern Italy or emigrated to northern Italy and then to the US, Australia, Canada, UK, etc. Not even Italians from the south represent Italians in Italy in general, there are many differences between them: linguistics, temperament, habits, history, local traditions, regional gastronomy and even genetics!
2 or 3 years ago i had read a diatribe between Italians on Quora, from then on i deepened and a new world opened up to me: really curious and less homogeneous people than i imagined (i'm Russian) The history of Italy and the differences between Italians in Italy is a truly fascinating theme ...
As an Italian, congratulations! You speek very well and I know that Italian is a tough and complex language to learn! Fortunately, I've had the privilege of learning english at school so I can speak italian and english fluently. Cheers to you!
Pronunciation of Italian is easy as it is completely phonetic. Much easier than French.
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 I never said anything about pronounciation, I simply said that learning the grammar rules of the Italian language can be a long process for foreigners, since they are hard.
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 That's true and it's closer to Spanish then French thats why it's my third language I'm learning .
@@davidwoodleylegend1685 This all being said there are some Spanish false friends in Italian, which makes it harder to learn.
@@GDino33 Yeah yeah I get it, I think that french, italian, spanish, german, portuguese and romanian are all beautiful languages! Unfortunately I can only speek italian, english, spanish and romanian. Cheers to you!
I am from Italy and this guys speaks GREAT Italian! I love it and I was psyched when he started speaking... He speaks Italian better than TomMaso (not TomasSo) and it's saying something, with all due respect for Tommaso (languages are not something easely remembered and if you don't speak them, you'll lose them).
Also, one of my close friends is from Mola di Bari!
I LOVE THIS VIDEO!
Esiste anche il nome Tomaso con una M comunque, mio zio si chiama così :)
@@hecomments9373 tuo zio è italiano? Intendo non figlio di italiani all'estero, eh, ma italiano nato in Italia? Te lo chiedo senza la volontà di offendere o discriminare, ma solo perché spesso alle anagrafe fanno confusione! 😅 Comunque, in Italia il nome corretto e comune è Tommaso, che è anche il nome di un Santo.
@@francescogatti4590 Vabbeh poi ognuno scrive come vuole e modifica lo spelling
Tomaso è una variante di Tommaso. Non è molto comune o popolare ma viene utilizzato ed è legittimo, nessun errore all'anagrafe. Questo in generale. Altra questione invece se il Tom(m?)aso del video abbia effettivamente 1 o 2 emme. Chi lo sa? Vero che in inglese non pronunciano la doppia consonante, dunque può essere semplicemente errore di pronuncia.
@@robyx4088 infatti Tomaso è una variante non comune. TomasSo, in ogni caso, è figlio di un inglesismo abbastanza frequente, chiaramente udibile anche nelle parole del Signore in questione. Oggi gli errori all'anagrafe sono estremamente infrequenti ma, in tempi compatibili con la data di nascita presunta del Tommaso nel video, invece lo erano molto di più.
Tomasso mixed different italian handgesture and dialects in the wrong way 😂 wannabe Italians Always kill me ☠️
Btw tanto amore from Italia😘
(Even his name Is incorrect)
i was thinking the same thing! XD
Wow you Italians are very harsh and unwelcoming with your diaspora.
@@efrainrondon5753 No, but we simply try to preserve our identity from the caricatures that come from America and that ruin the image of Italy! If in the movies we are represented as "Pizza, pasta, mafia and mandolin" or stuck in the 50's it is their fault! It's not even their fault honestly, because they really believe that what they have is Italian culture, but it's really just a bad caricature. It's their identity and OK, but it's not an Italian identity, that's what they can't understand! We have more in common with our Spanish or French cousins than with them, simply because they are AMERICANS and not ITALIANS. It is too easy for them to call themselves Italians if they don't even know how to indicate it on a geographical map! Obviously I am not speaking of everyone, but of those who do not know the language, culture or have never been here, but they continue to define Italians without a reason! On the other hand, Italian Americans who strive to know our way of life and who REALLY preserve our culture and spread it all over the world are welcome!
@@efrainrondon5753 he isn't being harsh, he's just saying that tommaso isn't really Italian, and at least from my point of view, if you are born and raised in a country you are 100% part of that country despite your parents nationality
@@benaz_ excluding someone from being considered Italian is very harsh. I'm from a nationality that has a huge diaspora and I would never exclude someone simply because they weren't born in the motherland. If anything I would try to educate them on the culture.
This made my day!! love from Italy
Anche te sei italiana 😂😂😂
One of my grandparents was Italian who went by the name Losi. This video rly warms my soul, thank you! 🇮🇹🇲🇨
Giuseppe is Italian Italian, he doesn't have to pretend and act in a stereotypical way because he is a real one. Good to see
This Granit guy is a Legend,
he was straight capping tho
,mother Croatian father Calabrese but they Give him an Albanian name, the dude looks 200% Albanian same as his accent(probably an Albanian from Kosovo,that explains the Fluency in Serbian/Croatian)and when he asks him where in Croatia is he from he says dubrovnik which is a city that lives only of tourism and the most of its tourist are Albanian,like someone pretending to be Spanish saying that they’re from Ibiza 🤦♂️ 😭
Probably yes👍🏻
His father could have been an Italian Albanian (arbërësh). In that case, he actually would be an Italian of Albanian culture.
Baldwin 🧐
1)
"looks 200% Albanian"
Albanians and Italians are decently phenotypically diverense groups, plus they are geographically close and really don't differ that much from each other in looks, so there's no way in hell you would know whether someone is Italian or Albanian by looking at them, simply no way, they're indistinguishable, other factors might or might not give it away, such as accent or name like in this case, which is what gives you the bias to say he "looks 200% Alabanian" when in fact I have seen hundreds of Italians who resemble this guy and have nothing to do with Albania
2)
Ibiza is an inhabited island, I live in Majorca (the island besides it) and go to Ibiza every so often, nearly 200 thousand people live in it
@@SiboWoW no way. Arberesh people knew italian 100% perfectly cause they were born in Italy. He has a strong albanian accent while speaking italian+ he doesnt know italian very well.

Parla Italiano meglio della maggior parte degli italiani a Little Italy 😂🤣
@@goluremilanguages direi che lo parli molto molto bene. Giusto da qualche frase/parola si sente che non sei italiano, ma se chiudo gli occhi faccio difficoltà a capirlo. Comunque noi la parola "pandèmia" la pronunciamo "pandemìa".
Well, to be fair, only one of those Italians was barely able to speak standard Italian.

I like how you approach the people without condescension unlike another TH-cam video. She was walking around being judgy about people not speaking Italian in Little Italy.
How you switched from Italian to Croatian was so unexpected and smooth! Would love to know your life story, a guy from Kansas apparently knowing quite a bunch of languages!
he's albanian
@@EndritBajramiEshte21he’s talking about the interviewer
Nice to see Tommaso on a TH-cam video. I met him during my honey moon in NY. He stopped me and my wife while we were walking along the streets and asked us if we wanted to stop and eat something in the resturant he was working. I told him that we had eat already and he asked me a cigarette hahahah, then he told me that he was from Sicily Palermo. Honestly he was the only america with Italian roots that I met in little Italy , the rest of them were all Albanians or Croatians.
In NY the italian americans have been replaced by balkan people

When they both started Croatian.... My jaw dropped to the ground.
Svaka cast decki
Well, the second man, Granit is Albanian, he said he was from Calabria, where many Arbëreshës live. They are called Arbëreshë because at times where some of them migrated from Albania to Calabria (because Ottoman conquest in Albania), one of most important Albanian principated was Arbëria, which then they united all in one principate.
The second guy is granit kolshi he's an albanian from Kosovo thats why he knows some croatian/serbian

Italy is the most beautiful country in the world. I am a proud Croatian, but Istria and Dalmatia are as beautiful as they are because of the Venetian Empire.
@@brilliantbeaches5389 that's so true! Passing by the Adriatic it's so clear the Venetian influence in the architecture along Istrian and Dalmatian coasts, everytime I go there I feel more like home then when I go in other parts of Italy 😆✨
I’m italian, I understood everything. This man said (5:45) “mannaggia alla miseria” which means “f*cking hell” but it’s not so vulgar. (5:48) now he said “Uagliò! Che s ric?” - “Ragazzo! Che si dice?” which means “Ehi what’s up buddy?”

Your pronunciation and even your body language just drips swag my brother! Keep doing what you doing for real... Love✌
p.s. I've just subscribed too!
I come from an Italian/Jewish family, and one of the biggest regrets I have for my family is that my Italian side didn’t pass on the language to their children (my parents) or the grandchildren. I would’ve loved to grow up speaking it. It’s such a beautiful language. I learned Spanish in school, and to this day try to force myself to say things in Spanish in my head so I can retain it. Someday, I hope I can throw myself into Italian culture fully, so I can reconnect with my heritage, of which I’m very proud of.
I can relate to you slightly, but I have connected to my English culture so easily that I feel sorry for you that you cannot connect with the Italian heritage. It is a truly beautiful language, and I can speak a little bit since I have learn Spanish and speak in three languages. I speak Hindi, Gujarati and obviously English with an American and English dialects.
I relate with you, my family did not pass the language down, however they did pass down the culture and traditions as I was raised catholic and we did the Sunday dinners, homemade sauce and wines. Your family was probably very similar to mine as they did not want to look like foreigners when first moving to the us so instead they “assimilated” was a common practice back then
Ciaooo dall Italia! Sei un grande comunque! Incredibile quante lingue sai parlare, e sei pure un sacco simpatico, continua così
OKAY SOOOOO I’m Italian and I love watching videos of people speaking Italian hence I was watching this one and guess what I’m from Mola di Bari, the town on the Adriatic Giuseppe mentioned being his hometown !!!! This makes me so proud and it was such a surprise hahaha😭😭😭😭

On the other hand Tomasso (which should actually be spelled Tommaso) speaks Italian like I could speak Mandarin! Strong accent, not so good prononciation, he might be from Palermo but at some point he throws sont Napoli slang....quite weird
That’s just Italian Americans, most of our slang is Napolitano for some reason
Lmao it’s so funny at the end with Tomasso when he start speaking Sicilian it’s all ???? The slang there it’s so brutal. Especially from Palermo and montelepre. Roots run deep there. Shout out to my family in Sicily.
He didn't speak any Sicilian, he used a strong neapolitan accent
