Also interesting is the fact that the Old Sicilian letter for “sci” was “X” possibly due to influence during the Aragonese domination of Sicily or before. So you will find “cascia” spelled “caxa” in older texts. In fact, many geographic features and comuni in Sicily still retain the letter X in their spelling such as Joppolo Giancaxio (“Giancascio”) and Xirbi (“Scirbi”). The only toponym to defy this rule is Giardini Naxos (“Naksos” or “Nasso”) in Eastern Sicily, likely because of its Greek origins.

I'm from eastern Sicily, the difference from our sicilian and Palermo sicilian is absurdly huge, especially when someone spells it out so clearly like Filippo.

Interessante. Però come altre cose tali, lo è anche a livello superiore. Non solo dal contenuto del video ma anche quindi dai rapporti linguistici tra un parlante siciliano che comunque conosce l'italiano e un italiano, spagnola e portoghese. Dove comunque l'italiano è più a conoscenza dei suoni e della pronuncia siciliana. Da ciò le naturali conseguenze. Innanzitutto, il fatto che diversi nomi siciliani siano simili più allo spagnolo e al portoghese è incidentale. Visto che comunque Podcast (l'italiano) sembra capire meglio tutta la descrizione. D'altro canto, il siciliano è condizionato dalla scelta del nome dal fatto che conosce già il termine italiano corrispondente e quindi cerca più o meno consapevolmente di distanziarsi da esso. Sa che sarebbe troppo banale usare un termine uguale. Da sardo mi troverei esattamente nella stessa situazione. Come credo qualsiasi italiano che conosce una delle nostre lingue/dialetti

The similarities between Sicilian, especially, the Palermitan version is due to the fact that the Spanish ruled Sicily for about 500 years, with the Aragonese ruling first and then the Catalans and lastly the house of Borbon ( the Spanish branch of the house of Bourbon) Palermo was the seat of the vicerois. Many of the great Sicilian noble families like the Moncadas, Dalcontres, Marullo, Valdina had Spanish origins.

As a Sicilian who spent two months in Spain, I thought it was a breeze travelling through the country and communicating with people. Granted, as I only studied the language for 6 months, I was constantly butchering the conjugations, which I find to be the hardest aspect of the language. But the rest of the grammar and the vocabulary was fairly easy to pick up. Having said that, it should be said that not everything comes for free straight away, there are little phonological parallelisms that one needs to figure out first. Once this is done, then it gets progressively easy. For instance, the Sicilian word for 'wife' (mugghieri) is very obviously related to the Spanish word for 'woman' (mujer), but this becomes apparent only after you realise that the sound 'j' was converted into the sound 'gg', which is not pronounced like a hard 'g', but by compressing air between the tongue and the palate (it's hard to describe in words), hence you also get words like ajo =agghia (same pattern here). It just takes a bit of extrapolation. Incidentally, the Sicilian guy in the video speaks what is perhaps one of the least intelligible varieties of Sicilian (Palermo and the surrounding towns), because lots of the ´r´ sounds disappear (´carta´ becomes ´caitta´), which I would imagine must confuse speakers of Spanish until they figure it out. This is not a feature of Sicilian at large, but just of some subsets. Other people in Sicily simply say ´carta´, whereas if you go east of the island, eventually you come across ´catta´. Ah well... I´ll stop here. I could get off on this stuff...

As a native Slavic speaker, i'm not a specialist in Romance languages, but i did notice that Sicilian often used "u" at the end of a word, instead of "o" in other Romance languages, (but except Romanian, because use of "u" at the end of a word is the most characteristic for the Romanian surnames :)

Distribution of -u and -o is quite complex in Italy, there's systems with three genders (neuter, masculine and feminine) where -u corresponds to the neuter or the opposite (such as Neapolitan and its dialects). In this case though -u is entirely reserved for masculine noun as Sicilian has 2 genders like most Romance languages.

Hi, I’m from Catania, in the east coast of Sicily. Our variety (dialect) of the sicilian language is extremely different from the occidental varieties, especially from the Palermo dialect, as Filippo said in the video. I’m a proud speaker of the Catania dialect and I’m trying to improve my standard sicilian language, with the help of the association “Cademia Siciliana”. Here our version of the words: 1) stagnìnu (“gn” is like the italian “gn” sound) 2) chjanca (“ch” is like a “k”, the stress is in the first “a”) 3) sceccu 4) buatta (used only for “aluminium cans” because for “jar” we use “brunìa”, the stress is in the first “a”) 5) puḍḍisinu (“ḍḍ” is one of the most peculiar sound in sicilian language and in the eastern dialects of Sicily it is pronounced like a double retroflex “d”, the stress is in the last “i”). Nice video! Here on youtube I usually watch the videos of Ecolinguist, Podcast italiano and Portuguese with Leo...so it’s a pleasure for me to see you here all together, playing with my native language!

The word fiasco (meaning to fail) comes from the Italian word fiasco (flask, meaning bottle of wine). It is said that the expression "fiasco" originates from the craft of the glassblower. "To make a fiasco" would indicate the accidental production of a flask - or a similar vessel - instead of another more difficult shape. From this point of view, the fiasco would constitute a failure.

O português dos reis, naquelas alturas, era muito semelhante ao que hoje em dia se fala no Alentejo, e a pronúncia alentejana é bem distinta da brasileira.

Uma palavra para descrever os desrespeitosos: inveja

God how much i love languages.. they fascinate me. Im a greek learning italian and it's so strange seing that plumber is "fontanero" in spanish and also "fontaneri" in sicilian.But in italian it's "idraulico" which is actually derivated from idraulikos a greek word that comes from "idor" which in ancient greek means water. :)))

Como español de España, he entendido (sin leer los subtítulos): 99% portugués 97% italiano 35% siciliano Dato: nunca he estudiado los otros idiomas.

I love the fact that in Spanish “idraulico” is “fontanero”, since also in my dialect (Romagnolo) and in its Italianized version, we call it “fontaniere”!

Nice experience. When you see the similarity between languages. That's mean in the past all the peoples of the Mediterranean had a great trade and cultural exchange between them. I think the mediterránean area was the heart of the world historically and culturally because all the major languages ​​come from this region.

Also... In sicilian, and web have alot of hidden Arab origins in our words. Sicily was a sort of a gate between West and East world cultures.. especially with Ferdinand II of Palermo, who got scomunicated by the Pope for his good relationship with arabs and muslims 😅🤣

I am a first generation Australian born to Sicilian immigrants and grew up speaking Sicilian at home and with my relatives. I am getting old now and as the older immigrants have all passed I rarely use Sicilian. It was such a pleasure to listen to you all and hear the language of my parents and ancestors. My family oral history is that we have a Spanish line and my father always used a double surname (Sicilian and Spanish). It’s amazing how “familiar” Spanish sounds to me. Thank you!

I understood Sicilian because I'm Sicilian, Italian because I'm Italian, Spanish because it's very easy to understand, but portuguese... I sometimes understand nothing. 😭

some of the words were exactly the same between Spanish and Portuguese too. In fact, the similarity of grammar, lexicon and sentence structure between Portuguese and Spanish is 89% - the closest pair of romance languages without any doubt proven scientifically and linguistically by linguistics experts. Just the accent is a bit different, but does not impede the intelligibility in any significant way at all.

A lot of Spanish speakers and Portuguese speakers choose not to study each other's language since it's so similar. It's actually super entertaining for both to laugh about it and be understood at the same time. I find the only people who study the other language do it to speak in professional settings.

In terms of the Italian accent yes, but in terms of vocabulary, for me as a Spanish speaker, Portuguese always ends up being the most understandable because the vocabularies of Spanish and Portuguese are like 90% the same, also the grammar and sentence structure too. It's not surprising as Portugal and Spain are next door neighbours who share a very similar history and culture, to say nothing of the very similar languages. And the Portuguese and Spanish languages, as it turns out, are neighbours in South America and also in a few small African countries/islands i.e., Sao Tome e Principe and Malabo & Bioko, and on mainland Equatorial Guinea where 2 of the 3 official language are Spanish and Portuguese.

Sicilian dialect has a strong Spanish influence because Spaniards ruled Sicily before the unification of Italy. for example "Sto a casa" instead of "Sono a casa" is just like Spanish "Estoy a casa"

Thank you, Norbert. These languages are very close to each other despite the words chosen.

Here are the Romanian correspondents of the 5 Sicilian words: 1. funtaneri - fântânar 2. carnezeria - cârnățăria, măcelăria 3. sceccu - asin, măgar. Also "măgar" in Romanian can be said about a naughty and stupid man. And "sceccu" reminds me of the romanian similar words: "secătură" and "secu(le)", which is used to address a stupid/naughty man. (le) indicate a direct address to that person. Meaning that person's mind is dry as a dessert, or he has no brain. 4. buatta - but, buta, bute, butie, butoi ... Sometimes friends invite each other to a "băută la gura butoiului"... means a drink at the mouth of the barrel :), if wine or brandy is kept in the barrel. - "buatta" sound similar with "băuta". 5. pitrusinu - pătrunjel

It's more similar to Standard Italian than I expected. Good to see Filippo again, and very pleasantly surprised to finally see Davide here! Great vid.

Sicilian is similar to italian but Sicilian is not a non-standard italian.

@@nzurrunzurru7346 I'm aware :) What I meant by "Standard Italian" is what Davide speaks in the video. I don't hear a strong Torinese accent. And I assume the Italian spoken in Sicily is a lot closer to Sicilian, right?

@@augustodaro2208 No because in italian the words are in italian, in the north and in the south the words are the same the only thing that change are the accents and some words for example in Rome we speak italian but with the "roman" accent and for example the word "il" means in italian "the" instead in rome we say "er"

I'm Italian and I understand very well sicilian but just for subtitles. I can't understand just listening.

Sono figlio di immigrati italiani provenienti della Basilicata, sono nato in Belgio e la mia lingua madre è il francese. Eppure capisco napoletano, romano, abruzzese, siciliano, una buona parte di portoghese, spagnolo, corso e rumeno. Quindi non capisco gli italiani che non capiscono i diversi dialetti italiani, anche se per quanto riguarda il sardo, forse è una cosa normale.

@@pstviou perché non sono dialetti 😂 puoi capire l'italiano con accento e qualche parola regionale che parlano molti, o la lingua regionale italianizzata parecchio che si sente in serie tv come Montalbano o Gomorra, o puoi capirla in quanto lingua romanza affine all'italiano e a cui siamo in qualche modo esposti ma... non significa che non siano lingue a parte non intelligibili. Anche dello spagnolo e del francese si capisce parecchio senza averli mai studiati no?

We have a saying in Spanish that says: "Hablando se entiende la gente"! Thank you Guys.....that was fun! 🖖🌻💛.

I love all Romance languages. But being of Italian descent, I’m obviously partial to Italian. I’ve been exposed to many Italian dialects since my childhood. My father is Marchegiano. My mother is Calabrese. My first wife was Abruzzese. My second wife is Sicilian. I have friends that speak Tuscan, Barese, Napolitano and Sardinian. Viva la lingua Romanza!

That’s really cool. Barese always seemed like a tough one, a harsh dialect to me. Calabrian seems nice but I don’t have too much experience with!

Merci pour le vidéo! J'adore cette série. Comme un québecois qui parle un peu l'espagnol, je trouve que grâce à ces vidéos et surtout aux paroles écrites dans les langues parlées, je comprends de plus en plus! :)😉

The fourth word "buatta" may have a correlation with the Spanish word "bote" (container, jar, can, tin) which is a synonym for "frasco" (jar) or "tarro" (jar).

In Sardinian a container / box / jar / tin is called "Bòtu". At least in my area (South West of the island). We even use it to describe a dumb person: "conca 'e bòtu" (can head or box head).

Panda I think that bote is related to boite.

Though the difference between "bote" and "frasco" would be that "frascos" allways contain a lid and "botes" can either have it or not. "Tarro" by the way has to have a handle and it's not used to store something. It's closest translation to english would be "Mug".

'Buatta' suena como botella en Español, que también es un contenedor.

Davvero figo, è bello riuscire a comunicare e a spezzare un po' le differenze linguistiche.

Acá en lunfardo también decimos un "cristiano" para referirnos a un "tipo" o una persona informalmente. Y decimos "plomero" en vez de "fontanero" en castellano rioplatense. Excelente el canal! Felicitaciones!
