Go to buyraycon.com/xiaomanyc to get 15% off your Raycon purchase this holiday season! Brought to you by Raycon. In 2009, while I was in college, I decided to spend a year in an overseas language program in Beijing to learn Chinese. Not only did I get to try squat toilets for the first time in a Chinese university’s international students dormitory, I was also randomly assigned as a roommate this handsome Italian man named Ciro, and I learned a lot from his debonair Italian ways. He a rough around the edges punk rocker from the gritty streets of Naples, I an introverted bookworm from the leafy suburbs of New York, as a match it actually worked surprisingly well.
Since leaving China 15 years ago I’ve missed him quite a lot, but since I am a professional language learner who travels the world these days Ciro offered to teach me the Neapolitan language of Naples which contrary to popular understanding is not a dialect of Italian but a language which differs from Italian as much as Spanish does.
Stay tuned to find out what happened when we reunited in Naples. I don’t speak any Italian so it was quite funny for Neapolitans to encounter an American tourist who only spoke English and Neapolitan.
If you want to get in touch with Ciro to learn Italian, Chinese, or Neapolitan or have a job offer for him (he's looking for work currently) you can get in touch with him on LinkedIn here: / ciro-d-esposito-1aa87b140

    • Actually, the regional languages of Italy are more dialects than languages. A rule of thumb I personally use to distinguish the two is mutual understanding and numbers: basically every city in Italy speaks a different dialect, and many times an Italian can't understand the dialect speaker, but it almost never is true the other way around. Neapolitan is an exception, together with Sardinian and a couple others from what I can remember. If you want some tips about Italian ask away, I'd be happy to help :) (Btw, I'm from Parma and I do know a bit of the local dialect!)@@EternalBeatbox

    • Only around twenty percent of Welsh people can speak Welsh and many of those will use English more often. So it's not unusual at all for this man to be struggling. He probably just learned a bit in school. It is more common for Welsh people to speak Welsh than Irish people to speak Irish though.

  • I'm happy to see that you're trying to speak Neapolitan and obviously you still have to practice. I really appreciate the fact that you and your channel bring to the vision of many people the existence of our language, unknown by most of the world and, even worse, often confused with Italian or even defined as a dialect of Italian. Thank you from me and my people :)

  • This is all lovely, to be honest. I'm only Portuguese myself, but enjoyed this immensely. Nerd factor: seeing a Fiat Uno parked on the street feels like home. I was fortunate enough to visit Italy for 2 weeks with some friends in 2011. We even were so bold as to rent a car - I was the driver. Navigating city streets and overall roads was also interesting. There's something uber cool about Xiamanyc that his videos make you feel at home with the culture and language even thought it may be a different country, a different language, and many many years gone by.

  • Italy experiences this ALL the time when decendants of the southern diaspora return only knowing the dialect (regional language) their ancestors came from. I only speak/understand Cotronese (one of the Calabrian dialects) and everyone from Naples to Sicily goes CRAZY when I speak to them. While I am a little embarrassed that I don't know standard Italian, they think it is the COOLEST thing ever! Lol
