Interesting. I always thought the Italian part was bigger cause we have family friends from there and they make it sound like it's a lot more.

I guess just like New York has Little Italy then Canada must have similar areas.

Actually, a quick look at the report http://www12.statcan.ca/english/cens...=0&RL=0&FREE=0 shows that after French, we are the highest in population.

Actually, small world cuz I'm half Sicilian and half central Italian, my hubby is born and raised in the north of Italy so I think we have it all covered :-) Do you speak Italian or Sicilian? It's hilarious going to Sicily nowadays and nobody understanding the 'ancient' Sicilian that I speak and they think I'm outdated (little do they know I speak the Northern Italian too) Sicily isn't the sicily our parents left many moons ago!

Armenians are going to take over the world. Parev to you to my Armenian brother. Their are many of us in Glendale, CA who are in the adult biz. :thumbsup

I am happy to see so many Armenians here, I want to contact everyone from this thread, I have already made contact with bdjuf, great talking to you man!

im american, but was raised by africans (thanks to the public school system in louisiana)

lol, louisiana is a fun place...
I've only been there twice, but it was a hoot :)

I speak basic Italian. My mom was smart cause her thinking was that if I learn Italian then anyone can understand me but if I just learn a dialect then I won't. I do undestand Sicialian usually. When I'm there I have no problem understanding people but sometimes I do come across people that speaks various dialects I have a harder time with.

You're right about Sicily being a totaly different place now compared to when our parents were there. Hell I've noticed it myself changing cause I've been visiting since I was 7 and now I'm 28. It used to be waaaaaay more old fasioned while now it's a lot more "Westernized".

In Northern Italy it's waaaaaaaay westernized big time. Partying, raves etc.. is all going on. It's just like here but they speak a different language
:1orglaugh

Sicily is still a bit mixed. You've got some serious old fashioned attituded AND more modern thinking etc.. mixed together.

If you come out to Vegas next month I'll have to go drink an espresso with ya :-)

"Sicilia insula est" (The very first sentence in my latin book back then.)

Buongiorno a tutti quelli che comprendono la bella lingua.

Hey whats your icq or aim I'll add you to my list :)

Italian & Lebanese.


I haven't met many with my mix.

Ok, I speak fluent Italian but I never did learn to read and write it. My freaking high school had every language but Italian, lol.

But let me give this a shot anyways.

"Sicilia insula est"

No freaking clue what that means, lol

"Buongiorno a tutti quelli che comprendono la bella lingua. "

Good day to everyone that understands this beautiful language.

Salve Maru! Sveglio presto di Domenica mattina?

Meloman.......nah no Vegas for us in January.....maybe next time......if you get to Montreal, let us know! We'll definitely have to get some espresso in Little Italy!

We grew up the same, since my father was the central Italian, we could only speak proper Italian to him - one word of Sicilian to him and he would tell my mother - Poveri figli rovinati! For the Sicilians in Montreal at the time, we were a freak show cuz we spoke Sicilian perfectly and at the same time they could hardly understand the Italian.

yeah dude... the ghetto bitches down here are soooo sexy... you content providers should come down here.. there girls are fine as hell, and will do anything for $

"Sicilia insula est"
Have to wake up my husband to know for sure - never studied latin, but I believe it translates to 'Sicily is an island'

I don't know. I think I'm mixed. I look a little white, a little Asian and a little Black. My grandpa was adpoted and has no clue where his people came from so we lost that leg of the tree.

My father is barely brazilian. He was born in Brazil the same day my grandparents arrived from Portugal. And it was illegal to enter the ship if you were pregnant. They didn't notice (!) my grandmother was pregnant of about 8 months.

3 of my grandparents are from Portugal, and 1 has ascendents from Italy.

Oh, and God is Brazilian.
