    Bravo. Il mondo diventato piccolo ci dovrebbe fare riflettere sulla nostra appartenenza alla umana specie ed alla cultura europea, tutti noi dobbiamo alle altre nazioni delle cose senza le quali non saremmo noi , la revolution ai Francesi, il via alla rivoluzione industriale ai Britannici, musica e rinascimento agli Italiani. Scienze, matematica, filosofia, ce li dobbiamo reciprocamente a pezzi. I pionieri della meccanica quantistica son tutti tedeschi. Basta, siamo Europei. Un sedicesimo del mondo. I brits vogliono tornare alle misure imperiali in sistema dodici ma contando in base dieci. Mah?! Tempo una generazione o due torneranno in Europa a cui appartengono.

    when I was a teen I saw a group of Italians in London repeatedly stepping into the road on a zebra crossing just to make the cars stop for them. it's like they were amazed the cars would actually stop to let them cross. I was impressed by their amazement as I had previously just assumed the pedestrian crossing rule was the same everywhere in europe. lucky i didnt visit italy or france first cos I'd have been run over on day one.

    As a young girl in communist Albania, I became an anglophile reading Charles Dickens, whom I adored at the time and would read late at night by the fridge light. Then I learned it rains a lot in England and that the English love tea, which I thought was heavenly (not knowing what English tea tasted like). So I studied English as a hobby, watching BBC ESL programs. My favorite was the series « Walter and Connie » which was about a charming young couple, much like Katie and Matteo, except Walter and Connie were fictional characters played by actors, whereas Katie and Matteo are very real. Katie reminds me why I used to like the English so much.

    The British have two souls, the organized and polite one of the good people and the drunk and violent one of the pub-goers. A big difference between Italians and British is the consumption of alcohol, it is difficult to be friends with them when their idea of fun is to go to pubs to drink alcohol and maybe get drunk. Then I agree that in general they are nice people and anything but introverted, but it is really difficult to reconcile their love for beer with the Italian education which teaches to drink little and only during meals and which misjudges drunks and those who overindulge in drinking alcohol.

    Things are changing, thankfully, many are going teetotal, not drinking alcohol. There is a high level of excessive drinking, but, like smoking, eating animals and eating processed foods, it is becoming a lifestyle choice many are leaving behind. I am always dismayed by the thugs who go abroad to get as drunk and aggressive as they can, please don't think we are all like that. And most of us, 83% did not vote to leave the EU. We are proud and happy to be Europeans, it is devastating to see what happened. It doesn't add up, literally. We want to come home.

    The young lady was close- queueing up to get into the pub; crawling out of the exit. Italians obey rules more -they're more conservative in dress, behaviour ( coffee, eating, etc.) & thought ( religion), compared to Brits , or the Spanish. They need to intensively study the pasta in London supermarkets but still end up disappointed. In 3 words? Generous, friendly & alluring, especially when talking in any language ( quite inventive too).

    Everybody speaks like this, in every country. You may think that people in YOUR country speak more slowly, but this is a false impression, due to the fact that you speak that language and thus understand everything. Some languages (Italian, Greek, Japanese, Vietnamese. etc.) sound as if they are spoken faster than others, but this is just because there are more syllables per second in those languages than in, for example, English or German or Russian, but on the other hand, the second group of languages have more consonant clusters, and so the average number of phonemes uttered per second turns out to be roughly the same.

    true but as an italian i can say in italy we say "it's british humour" when something is not so funny, i guess because you can't translate very well it and the jokes in the comedies etc. don't make sense to us when we see them (translated). still, the way we joke is quite different too (not better or worse just different).

    Britain’s Roman Legacy-by Penelope Rance They came, they conquered and their lasting effect on Britain is still visible to this day. From ancient forts, roads and walls, to villas, palaces and spas, discover Britain’s Roman legacy. Technology, architecture, language, government, town planning - even a sense of national identity. The depth of the Roman influence on the British Isles was such that it survives to this day, seemingly unmatched by that of any of the invading forces that followed them. But then, the majority of those invaders, and the subsequent ruling elites, wanted nothing better than to be Roman themselves. These heirs to the Roman ideal - Saxons, Danes, Normans, Plantagenets, Tudors, Georgians and Victorians - all tried to establish Britain as part of a wider empire, drawing on the example set by those first imperial overlords. And I'm sure you're familiar with the Monte Python skit.@@supertuscans9512

Era un poeta in disarmo e un ex docente universitario che quando andò in pensione si ritirò in Italia, divenendo tifosissimo della Sampdoria e del Gin Tonic, era amico di tutti, anche dei genoani come me, ma malgrado le sue frequentazioni fossero unicamente italiane non apprese mai la nostra lingua in modo sufficiente a tenere una conversazione senza che questa non fosse un misto di inglese 80% e 20% di italiano, cioè la stesse parti del Tonic e del Gin. Ci ha lasciato qualche anno e molti e io fra questi lo rimpiangiamo.
