    I'd say Viggo Mortensen sounded like he did pick up Italian in Rome specifically,
    judging by the way he sounded in this footage.
    He had both a foreign accent and a roman accent, together:
    cool!
    Kobe Bryant grew up in Italy till around age 13,
    as his father was a professional basketball player who balled for some Italian teams in the second half of his career.
    But then Kobe went on back to US,
    where he became the absolute Legend of the NBA we all miss to this day.

    Hey Metatron, have you ever read "A Sicilian Romance" by Ann Radcliffe? It was written in 1790 (by an English woman), and is set in 16th century Sicily (a more precise location is not explicitly identified, but it is obvious that most of the action takes place in Messina, as the characters can see Calabria from their castle windows). I'd be curious to know how good or bad a job she does in depicting Sicily and its people of that time. But it is a novel, so not exactly a quick read... And then the language is very 18th century, and can get weird even for a native English speaker (referring to bedrooms in a castle as 'closets', for example, which is valid, but is a very long ways from modern usage), so it would be even more difficult for a non-native. Still, if you ever should take the time to work through it, I'd really love to hear your thoughts on it!
    It seems 18th century English authors had a thing for writing stories set in medieval Italy, and Horace Walpole's "Castle of Otranto" (1764) seems to have started the genre? His story isn't given even as much as a regional location for its setting, but he does use character names suggestive of 13th century Sicily (most notably the main characters Manfred and Conrad), but his story doesn't have much descriptiveness in it, so there's not much to discuss as far as accurate portrayals of medieval Sicily or Italy. But Radcliffe does offer some descriptions of the land and its people, so there's actually something to talk about!

    • @ROMANTIKILLER2
      @ROMANTIKILLER2 14 дней назад +1

      Keep in mind though that 99% of tv and all media content to which Italians are exposed is standard Italian.
      And at least in most of the north of Italy, regional languages are usually not considered proper languages ("i dialetti") and have often been frown upon and largely abandoned as something that uneducated people would use. For instance, my parents born in the 50s at home or with uncle and grandparents talked in their native "dialect", but they always spoke to me in Italian, and my friends from the village have pretty much the same experience.
      Moreover, when migration within Italy became prevalent from the 1960s onwards, they would not be practical to be used even at home as they are largely mutually unintelligible (e.g. a Sicilian and a Venetian would have to speak to each other in Italian).
      To answer in a nutshell: yes, Italians born and raised in Italy are native speakers.

    • @thebenis3157
      @thebenis3157 14 дней назад

      @nicks0alive 9 дней назад

      Yes, there are native italian speakers. For instance, when two italians (who speak different dialects) move to another country and have children, they are going to teach their kids standard italian, making the children native italian speakers. Furthermore, in many households in italy, "regional italian" is more popular than "dialect." Meaning, millions are native italian speakers before they even enter school.

    Kobe Briantìs accent was so good that for a moment I thought he must have been dubbed... of course he has grown up in Italy (even as a Basketball player, as far as I understand) since his father was playing in Italy at that time. So he probably got that from living in Italy and interacting with Italian friends... the grammar is not perfect, but that is probably due to a long time of not speaking Italian so much:
    i don't know Marisa Berenson, but she is good.
    Viggo Mortensen can speak multiple languages and his Italian is amazing. His accent is not that strong, I think.
