That's because an Italian doesn't speak Italian, he talk in dialect. Even between neighbouring towns there are differences, the phrase "let's go" can be translated as "andiamo" in italiano but "imo" in my dialect, and "nnamo" in Roman dialect {60 miles apart from my town} and "iemu" in a town nearby 20 miles.

In Ontario Canada there is roughly 1 million Italian immigrants who obviously speak Italian and their children speak Italian and many of their grandchildren speak Italian. Still very connected to Italy with relatives visiting or visiting back in Italy...etc. I've always noticed the Italian Americans are very watered down, I know that is starting to happen here as the older generation starts to fade out. But as the son of Italian immigrants who grew up with almost entirely Italian neighbors, friends, class mates...etc I cant stress how fortunate I feel to have grown up Italian but in Canada. My family continues many traditions that even our relatives in Italy do not carry on such as making home made cured meats, cheese, wine, growing our own vegatables, making sauce...etc. Much of Italy moved on but we here are Italians frozen in time of the old ways.

I worked for a short while with some Italian-Canadian dude in NF, ONT, CA and the dude spoke English with an heavy Italian accent but he didn't speak a word Italian 😬 He knew probably the basic but wasn't able to hav an actual conversation in Italian. I know Italian community in NF was big and your story kinda explains somewhat his situation. I believe 90% of his personal life revolved in Italian community (bit weird for someone who's at least third or fourth generation Italian in CA). Perhaps he was faking but I never caught him faking it.

It’s the same everywhere people always want to different from what they are and who surrounds them. The Italo-Americani overdramatise their heritage because their ancestors had to be that way to stick up against the abuse they received 70-100 years or so ago.

We “mostly” don’t speak fluent Italian anymore because of all the hate and discrimination we faced when are parents/grandparents came here 1880-1920. So our parents didn’t teach us Italian. They wanted us to become American. Assimilate as immigrants should. Some of us even had to change last names to be treated better or the US government changed them at Ellis Island because they couldn’t pronounce/disliked them. But we’re still very proud of our Italian blood! 🇮🇹 As is with every immigrant. Most people are proud of their heritage/ethnicity.

Italy has many different languages, what's called Italian is just the Firenze dialect of Tuscan. Not speaking a language doesn't change your ancestry. You don't become ethnically English just because that's the only language you speak. Stop crapping on people for liking their heritage. If Italian Americans hated being Italian, you guys would complain about that instead. You're ethnicity doesn't change just because you move to a different place. Many Italians moved to the US and their descendants make up a large portion of the US today. It doesn't matter if they speak Tuscan or even Sicilian it Neapolitan, their heritage is still their heritage.

Italian Americans came at a time where privileged Anglo-Saxon white people ruled America and the better you could pretend to be one, the better your life was. Chicanos could keep their culture because they were segregated and so they built their own communities with their own culture. Italian had to fit into wider Anglo American society and so dropped their language to do so.

Do you dumbasses ever understand that when most of these immigrants came to the U.S. they all understood that it was important to speak a unifying language since there were people coming from all over the world to the U.S. and could not communicate with each other otherwise. But of course I have to explain such a logical reason since you geniuses can't figure that out.
Royal Emery & do you understand the concept of blending in without having to sacrifice your own ancestral culture? That you can easily pick up TWO languages without having to resort to "us or them" mentality all the time? In extension, do you know how many languages a person can actually easily pick up just during the first 10 years of thier life? Of course you don't.

In Ontario Canada there is roughly 1 million Italian immigrants who obviously speak Italian and their children speak Italian and many of their grandchildren speak Italian. Still very connected to Italy with relatives visiting or visiting back in Italy...etc. I've always noticed the Italian Americans are very watered down, I know that is starting to happen here as the older generation starts to fade out. But as the son of Italian immigrants who grew up with almost entirely Italian neighbors, friends, class mates...etc I cant stress how fortunate I feel to have grown up Italian but in Canada. My family continues many traditions that even our relatives in Italy do not carry on such as making home made cured meats, cheese, wine, growing our own vegatables, making sauce...etc. Much of Italy moved on but we here are Italians frozen in time of the old ways.
That's Amazing... Un'oasi conservata nello spazio-tempo. Saluti a te
that’s actually special. I wish real italians like me in italy would do this too because we have many beautiful traditions but italy is now modernized too, you have to go to the rural areas with farms to find ancient traditions still going on.
Hmm... interesting story dude. I worked for a short while with some Italian-Canadian dude in NF, ONT, CA and the dude spoke English with an heavy Italian accent but he didn't speak a word Italian 😬 He knew probably the basic but wasn't able to hav an actual conversation in Italian. I know Italian community in NF was big and your story kinda explains somewhat his situation. I believe 90% of his personal life revolved in Italian community (bit weird for someone who's at least third or fourth generation Italian in CA). Perhaps he was faking but I never caught him faking it.
America is a much more deserve place than Canada while at the same time it pressures people to assimilate to American culture. Italians had to go through a period where they weren’t even considered white in America, so most Italians stopped even learning the language by the second generation
As a third generation Italian Canadian I can confirm this is true
Most people that I know living in the USA and having Italian roots, they don't speak Italian even if they think they do. They speak a mixture of Sicilian and Neapolitan language, which is as if you blend Dutch and German and think that it is English
So true~

We “mostly” don’t speak fluent Italian anymore because of all the hate and discrimination we faced when are parents/grandparents came here 1880-1920. So our parents didn’t teach us Italian.

Not Always though Paulie Malignaggi for example visits his grandparents in Italy even though him and his parents was born in NY and he actually speaks Italian like a native speaker
Yes, big difference, especially in the food. Italians in america eat a lot of spaghetti and meatballs. And we eat a lot of lasagna. I always heard they ate more seafood back in the homeland.
@@nicknardini5469 we love lasagne too 😁 but we always try to make them ourselves so it's not a frequent meal as they require something like 5/7 hours of preparation. The typical food depends on the region. In the south seafood is eaten frequently, in the north there are more meat dishes. What unites all the regions is pasta 😂❤ there are like tons of different recipes that make use of it
Russell is the best stand up comedian,hands down
"Costco!" Game over i am dead 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Even Hillary Clinton is funnier than Amy Schumer, and she's not funny at all.
A potato with a microphone is better than Amy
Women are not funny. They cannot be funny.
Everybody is better than Amy Schumer
You are true talent 👍👍👍
It sounds to me he knows nothing about the Italian culture e proprio un caffone. Americano
It's true! When we get mad everything becomes a question! Lol
Italy 🇮🇹 is very different culture to America’s idea of Italian ! For a start the women are very different although both protect their family ! And the food is very different ! Italy 🇮🇹 pure home cooking x
The thought Russel's inner monologue has a thick accent is hilarious to me.
I miss you Russell You have to do more specials! Tell Netflix to give you more specials!
The Guidos of NY are hilarious

"Take me to the store where ..." lol
I clicked on this video HOPING he would call them not-real Italians, and he definitely lived up to my expectations 😂
This is so great 😂😂
I love this guy 💕💕
Dickface is the literal translation of the Italian insult "faccia di cazzo". I love this guy 😂
I used to work with a guy who would go on and on about being Italian because that’s where his parents came from. Barely spoke any Italian himself, so whenever he spoke to the Head of Northern European Operations who actually was Italian, he’d limit it to asking about the weather or what the gut did on his holidays. It was hilarious to watch a guy profess to being Italian to anyone who’d listen, and not even have a GCSE level understanding of the language.
Yup . Had a guy and his family like that at my daughters Catholic school. On and on everyday car line , after church , School carnivals , parent meetings etc . He never actually contributed anything Italian to the school himself. So odd . 😂😆
being italian in america is different your still italian biologically and still know about the culture but u dont speak the language
Italy has many different languages, what's called Italian is just the Firenze dialect of Tuscan. Not speaking a language doesn't change your ancestry. You don't become ethnically English just because that's the only language you speak. Stop crapping on people for liking their heritage. If Italian Americans hated being Italian, you guys would complain about that instead. You're ethnicity doesn't change just because you move to a different place. Many Italians moved to the US and their descendants make up a large portion of the US today. It doesn't matter if they speak Tuscan or even Sicilian it Neapolitan, their heritage is still their heritage.
@@tylersmith3139 people don’t seem to understand that italian immigrants in the 19th and 20th century were discriminated against and discouraged from speaking italian or teaching their kids the language/culture in order to naturalize and americanize themselves. Italian american is 100% a legitimate ethnic subculture especially in the northeast, nobody says asian- american descendants aren’t asian though. it’s really no different from any other recent immigrant/ethnic minority in the US.

Great impression!
That was great
"They act more Italian than the actual Italians do."
I think that goes for every US immigrants group really. They always act more like their people than the actual people who live in that country does. Usually really stereotypical kind of way
How do African-Americans act African? They don't try to learn the language or really what part of Africa they're from. And you'll never an African-American that actually celebrates Kwanzaa(Which is a word that isn't even from a West African language) Chicanos are pretty Latino, they speak Spanish a lot, eat pretty authentic Mexican food and generally know a lot about Mexico. Italian Americans came at a time where privileged Anglo-Saxon white people ruled America and the better you could pretend to be one, the better your life was. Chicanos could keep their culture because they were segregated and so they built their own communities with their own culture. Italian had to fit into wider Anglo American society and so dropped their language to do so.
I wish I could double like it!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is a great bit
Boston area same thing. In the suburbs their are Italian neighborhoods where the Italians are half and quarter Italian , and they act more Italian than real Italians.
I did not understand the last joke about Costco... reading the comments here and I'm like "I thought I was the only one! "
@knowledge share ...and big jars of confidence balls.
Membership discount store where people buy massive quantities of everything.
So many people say their from a place but don't even speak the language, so this is actual facts
It’s an American thing it’s for Irish Americans to connect with other Irish Americans and Italian Americans to connect with other Italian Americans etc but we don’t actually mean we’re from those places
This guy is really good 😀👏
I liked that! 👍🌟
"Costco" I can't ...! 😂😂😂
Russell used to train with Joe Rogan, and Joe says Russell here knows how to throw them hands....dude can fight...
