Italian as a National Language
Despite centuries of vast literary production, Italians had to wait until the unification of Italy in 1861 to have an official common language. Tuscan Italian was chosen for this role, even though only a small minority of the population spoke this dialect at the time. Most Italians spoke their own regional dialects. Today, the Italian language is rich and expressive, requiring complex verb conjugations, and Italians are proud to use it.
Technology may be responsible for the introduction of many borrowed English words, which are now used liberally in both formal and informal conversations. Rather than insisting on proper translations of English terminology, Italians often use English words as they are, even elevating their status to “fashionable.”
Italian Language and Music
Anyone who has studied or played music is familiar with words like crescendo, forte, and tempo. Italian has always been the language of opera librettos and is still universally recognized as the language of classical music. But why is Italian called “la bella lingua” (the beautiful language)? The sing-song effect of Italian comes from its pronunciation: most words have an accent on the penultimate syllable and end with a vowel, making the language sound sweet and lyrical to foreign ears.
Italians: A People of Saints, Poets, Sailors, and…
This famous motto defines Italians well, reflecting the religious and historical roots of the Belpaese. Paraphrasing Winston Churchill’s statement about Italians losing wars as if they were football matches, and football matches as if they were wars, I’d also add that Italians are passionate football commentators, as fierce and die-hard as they are experts in politics. Italy’s position on the Mediterranean Sea has left it open to invasion over the centuries, making it adept at accommodating other cultures.
Italians may complain about changes to their culture and language, but they are a warm, welcoming population that has learned to be enriched by diversity rather than fight it. Italian journalist Beppe Severgnini wrote that a red light at a traffic intersection is more of a suggestion than a command because Italians prefer to think rather than be told what to do. Foreigners might consider this a threat to safety, but Italians generally maneuver adeptly through the maze of traffic lights, regulations, laws, and traditional ways of doing things.
Italian Language and Communication
One could argue that the universal language of Italy is not Italian but gestures. This ‘handy’ method of communication helps Italians be understood abroad, even when they don’t speak the language. Foreigners should keep this in mind when visiting Italy – Italians are not affected by nervous tics; rather, they are highly communicative people who aren’t afraid to get physically close when communicating. The warmth of the people is felt instantly, especially when sharing a meal or a glass of wine, which is widely regarded as among the best in the world.
