Italian Steve Harrington hcs because why not:

He was born in Italy (ovbisouly) but moved to hawkins when he was around 10 or 11.

He speaks fluent Italian, it's his first language, which is why he asks what certain words mean so much. He's still expanding his English vocabulary.

He always writes his notes in Italian, he was forced to stop writing in Italian at school but after he graduated he started again. Robin keeps trying to read his little notes but she doesn't know Italian yet. (He has a journal that's in Italian because he knows Robin keeps trying to read it)

He teaches Robin Italian because she wanted to learn. Mainly so she could understand what he mumbles.

When he's stressed, scared, or angry he'll start rambling/yelling in Italian. No one understands him but Eddie always gets him to calm down. Robin does too but for some reason Eddie does it the best. Unless he's arguing then he has to be reminded to speak English.

He's an amazing cook, everything he makes is good. Steve tries his best to introduce everyone to certain Italian dishes.

He has several of his grandma's old cook books.

During the holidays his parents force him to fly out to Italy to see the rest of his family. After the age of 13, his parents are already there waiting for him.

He insults people in Italian so they don't understand him. Dustin, Mike, and Robin are normally the victims.

Sometimes he'll just switch into Italian and has to be reminded to speak English.

He loved living in Italy but refuses to move back because all of his friends (family) that matter live in Hawkins.

#italian steve harrington #steve harrington #stranger things #steddie #robin buckley #headcanon #eddie thinks steve talking in Italian is very hot #eddie and robin beg steve to make them food #i love Italian steve sm #steves parents still suck btw #they basically sent him to live in hawkins because its a small town and they think he'll be safe when they go on business trips #hes not safe

Some cool expressions in Bergamasco (the dialect from the town I was born and raised in, Bergamo) and a comparison with italian.

Bergamasco is a very interesting dialect, because it borrows terms, sounds and letters from both german and french! This makes it sound very different from italian and other italian dialects.

A lot of grammatical components like the way verbs are structured, the sounds and pronunciation, and articles, are very similar to german and french.

And it also gives bergamasco-speakers like myself an advantage in speaking german, finnish or other languages that have the vowels ä, ö, ü (or the finnish y), since we already know how to pronounce them!

(green: Bergamasco, white: italian) Some expressions:

se fet? cosa fai? = what are you doing?

so mia. non lo so. = i don't know.

n'doe? dove? = where?

n'do set? dove sei? = where are you?

mochela. smettila. = stop it.

lassa sta'. lascia stare. = don't bother/leave it alone.

fa frecc. fa freddo. = it's cold.

fa colt. fa caldo. = it's hot.

mola mia. non mollare. = don't let go/don't give up.

fa' mia isè. non fare così. = don't be like that.

n'dondaret? dove vai? = where are you going?

n'che manera? perché? = in what way/ means 'why?'

borlà zò cadere = fall down

desdes fo'./rampa fo'. svegliati/muoviti = wake up, hurry up

gregnà ridere = to laugh

usa drè urlare dietro = to scream at someone

porta drè negot. non portarti dietro niente. = don't bring anything (with you)

lèa de terra levare da terra = scream/argue at someone so much you're lifting them from the ground

an va? andiamo? = shall we go? (from french on y va?)

so dré a maià. sto mangiando. = i'm eating. (from french je suis en train de manger)

usa mia. non urlare. = don't shout

Some words:

rüt sporco = dirt (from german)

hümmia scimmia = monkey

cì maiale = pig

ca'al cavallo = horse

formagèr formaggiaio/lattaio = cheese maker (from french fromager)

articiòk carciofo = artichoke (from french artichaut)

oeuf, öf uovo = egg (from french oeuf)

frèr ferro = iron (from french fer)

rasga sega = handsaw

scèta bambina = little girl

Bergamasco is mostly spoken in the countryside and especially in the mountain villages and hills around Bergamo by older generations. It is not as commonly spoken in the main city, or used by younger generations. I learned it from my mom, and we speak it in the house daily. You can often hear it spoken by handymen, construction builders, artisans, and older men in the town.

A political party popular in Lombardia (Bergamo's Region) proposed years ago that Bergamasco should be thought in schools in Bergamo and around the province, but the idea was rejected. The sad reality is that Bergamasco, like a lot of italian dialects, is in danger of disappearing due to how less and less it's spoken and taught to younger generations. I personally really love Bergamasco and I love how unique and cool it sounds, and how it clearly shows the history of Bergamo as well: we went through the Austrian invasion, the German influence and also trades/exchanges with France, that contributed in the years to make the dialect sound the way it does now. It's a collection of my town's history and cultural exchanges and interaction (even if unfortunate ones, with Germany and Austria)

Most people from Bergamo and that speak Bergamasco have a very prominent specific accent (I do!) even when speaking normal italian. People from Bergamo are considered very matter-of-fact and straightforward, and the dialect reflects this nature very well: a lot of words and verbs are shorter than their italian counterpart, and the borrowed sounds from German make it sound harsher/more direct than italian does.

Bergamaschi wanted to avoid speaking so badly they even made their dialect as short and direct as possible, so they could use less words than regular italian and get to the point quicker.

A tale in two parts:

Single teen mom Charles has to bring up his US Sassuolo-supporter kid all alone and they bond over football

BUT!! After a while he meets the love of his life in the form of a hot suave Spaniard (as you can clearly see in this picture) who adopts Charles's son as his own. They will take their kid to US Sassuolo matches together and they will live happily ever after.

The end.

#i don't know what this is guys i'm sorry #i already knew about the second picture but i saw the first one only yesterday #and i was like: 'before they adopted together the kid charles was on his own?? he was a single parent??'#and this happened #at least i think it's the same kid in both pictures??#and for reference: the kid is wearing a US Sassuolo kit #US Sassuolo is an Italian football team which plays in serie A and is based in Sassuolo #a little town which borders with Maranello #charles leclerc #carlos sainz #carlos sainz jr #charlos #f1

Here is a random fun fact about my father. He has always been very quick to make Nazi comparisons*. (Specific bees in his bonnet that I can remember include the TSA and any sort of environmental regulation, among other such things.) One time, when I found one of these comparisons particularly egregious, I brought up Godwin's Law ("As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1."). My dad responded by informing me that he was actually in usenet groups with Mike Godwin back in the day and did not get along with him. Given that information, as well as his fondness for hyperbolic Nazi comparisons, I figure there is a non-zero chance that my father was part of the inspiration for Godwin's Law.

*despite his fondness for such comparisons, when I told him in 2015 that I thought he was being very blasé about the rise of American fascism he laughed like I was making a joke, so.

#me posts #us politics/#when we still talked we kept getting into political arguments in italian restaurants #and i joked to a therapist once that this would lead to me crying in every italian restaurant in town #i had already managed two at this point (and twice in olive garden)#and she told me to at least not cry at fazolis #because there is nothing sadder than crying in a fazolis
