Italian is certainly a very expressive language. If you've been to Italy (or have Italian friends) you may have noticed that we use our hands a lot when we talk (hard not to notice). And you may have thought we're crazy moving so much with all that heat...
Well, what you may not know is that Italians have their own very special hand gesture language. What's the reason behind it? Looking at Italy today, you'll think of it as a unified country. But it's not always been the case. Before the unification, in 1861, Italy was made of lots of different states and kingdoms with their very own languages and traditions. Hence the need of a more universal language.
Today, gestures are passed along from generation to generation of Italians, together with dialects, traditions, and an unmeasurable love for pasta ;)
There are so many Italian hand gestures...in this video Marco explains his favorite ones.
Please note it's not just a matter of hands. All facial muscles are also involved. So make sure to check his facial expressions when you practice!

It feels so weird when you're italian and you realize how many hand gestures you actually do everyday.
So true Emma :)
like the so and so gesture I thought was international but now I have some doubts
hahaha no there are two kind of gesture language
1) the italian gesture language (the most complex and expressive)
2) the international gesture language
3) the language of the deaf, the real gesture language i think
Emma Bolcato exactly... I am Italian but i don't use some of this gestures
Mattia Massari I am italian and I know most of them
People here in Rome move their hands even when they're taking on the phone and the other person can't see them.
Ahaha vero
si xD
Bruh anche qua a torino
E' dovunque così. penso
so true!
My dad(who’s an Italian Argentine) moves his hands even when he’s driving 😂 he’ll take them both off the wheel and my whole family is like “Put your hands on the wheel!” 🤣
SAME HAHAHA
Yeah i'm argentine too and we use all those gestures too hahahahaa
i am italian argentine lol both my parents use the gestures
i do it all the time as an italian :P
On the phone? Yes, a few comments down some one confirms that Italians gesture on the phone. Japanese bow on the phone, sometimes.
I always wondered why Italians speaks with hand gesture, now I know there is actually a perfectly logic explanation.
no there's not. absolute nonsens
@@RagingADHD Yes there is a sense, Italians speaking fluently standard Italian is a recent thing, my grandparents for example don't speak any Italian at all. And what you think are dialects in Italy are fully different lenguages so hands gestures were necessary.
Now almost every kid speaks both standard Italian and regional dialect but the habit remained, it is simply a fact of culture :)
@@RagingADHD
1 that's racist
2 he explained the SENSE of each and every hand gesture
DonPrimon In reality only older people remember the regional dialect. Everyone speaks standard italian
@@gaialagomarsino4454 depends were are you from. In south we speak in both, italian and dialects
ma come fa la gente a stare ferma mentre parla?
me lo chiedo anch'io! così diventa noioso 😂
Ritalin
Nikole Jeager boh
infatti chi non si muove nel fare almeno uno di questi gesti mentre parla, è una mummia ahahhaha e neanche tanto interessante
Io un ce la fo. 😂
"You're lucky" alias "Te faccio un culo così" AHAHAH
Confermo e approvo
Assolutamente
Può essere inteso in entrambi i modi
anche “che coglioni” per quando non ne puoi più
It can be used either way 🤣
Sto male ahhahahahahhahaha
looks like Italians made all these gestures to understand each other on a really crowded party
Pretty much
It's so handy in this type of situation,you can talk to someone from one spot to another of the party getting 100% of the conversation
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣
I'm eating pizza，listening to opera while watching this. And I'm freaking chinese.
FJ Kong 🤦♀️🤦♀️.
How can you don't do gestures when you talk?!
In my opinion (I'm Italian) it's impossible!
Yeah I'm having a shite and I'm Scottish/Swedish
@@vittoealloggio3895 that's possible. Because in some part of my country (Indonesia) gesturing while you're talking considered as being mad or rude or even impolite, especially when you're talking to the elders
@@ChickenSoup736 ow, understood :)
Thank you
so you literally don't need to speak Italian to speak Italian :D
😂
Rokas Getautas probably
Yep, xD
*WTF gesture, looks around with a grumpy face*
normally all these gestures are used while talking, i haven't seen my family talking to other italians only using hand gestures, some in this vid i actually have never seen, such as drinking wine, and a few others, that nobody would really say in a sentence in general.
We all most have exactly the same hand gestures here in Greece. We also have so many other things in common. I would love to live in Italy!
really? You use some of these gestures too?That's cool!I really wanna visit Greece,now even more!😂😁
+Valentina Benelli That's great. You should visit our islands first they are beautifully! 😀😀
Well Greece have once been occupied/under the influence of Venezia. So it's likely that some of the hand gestures comes from that.
+Michael Simonsen Mainly our eastern islands, Rhodos and Create were occupied/under the influence of Italians for many years as far as I know.
Greece is wonderful! As italian our Father is the Roman Empire and is semi-perfect Low... but our Mother is the hellenic culture with the philosophy, democracy and art they teached to us.
I cracked up especially at "your wife is cheating on you" I mean who even needs a hand gesture specifically for that? HAHAHHA! Awesome video!
When Someone drives in a bad way and makes you risk to have an accident
Because this is a very common sentence to insult somebody and we usually use the word "cornuto" because a cornuto is who his wife has cheated on him
You'd be surprised
It's an insult! never do it! It's like the middle finger.
@@giuseppebongiorno5364 Same thing here in Brazil, although we call them "corno" or "cornos" if there's more than one. This might sound a bit off to you, but our word for "horns" is "chifre" or "chifres" (plural); if someone becomes a corno we say "ele levou um chifre", meaning "he took/received a horn", or maybe "ele foi chifrado" meaning "he got horned".
Not sure if they do the same in Portugal, so it might be something we inherited from all the Italians that arrived here.
I'm American, raised by an Italian grandpa, I've used about 75% of those hand gesters, never knew that I picked them up until watching this video. Crazy what you pick up from parents without even knowing
ma se non gesticoliamo viene fuori un linguaggio monotono....
gesticolare rende più interessante una discussione :D
Migliora l'espressività
ma poi gesticolano anche all'estero...e daje su...guarda già negli stati uniti, ogni volta che parlano, ci partono con quella mano alla nigga della situa ahahhahaha
xD
Noi facciamo delle discussioni espressive ed euforiche Nn siamo dei robot perfortuna
In questo commento (senza offesa) sembri omofoba. O forse sei solo un viaggiatore nel tempo giunto dagli anni 40: in quel caso, benvenuto! Siamo nel 2017, e "checca" è un termine retrogrado e offensivo. Non pronunciarlo se vuoi sembrare una persona per bene.
My English conversation teacher in high school was always like "Guys, it looks like you're talking to a deaf person!" and good Lord it's true.
Hehe Stefano :) We just can't contain all that passion 😉
I swear, one day an Italian might accidentally doing one of those Naruto’s hand signs and performing some sort of jutsu.
That would be awesome 😅
Ahahah
sto ridendo, noi italiani riusciamo a farci capire tra noi, ma se qualche americano ci vedesse sarebbe tipo "wtf"
È cosi.
A volte gli stranieri fanno i gesti a caso (con intenzione anche goloardica alle volte).
Certo se ti dicono una cosa parlando italiano (o cercando do farlo) devi dirgli che il gesto è totalmente fuori contesto
Ciao,come ti chiami su istagram?
@@carlocumino824 succedeva pure a me, ho i genitori italiani e quando mi sono trasferita in italia mi trovavo a fare dei gesti completamente fuori luogo perché avevo capito male il loro significato 😂 mi beccavo certi sguardi confusi
Una volta, a Las Vegas, segnalai con il gesto "non ce n'è" a un collega non italiano e distante una cinquantina di metri che il locale che stavamo cercando era chiuso. Ovviamente non capì il gesto, dovetti raggiungerlo e dirgli che era chiuso. A quel punto capii quanto i nostri gesti sono pratici!
@@lepeggiocose6316 Ne avrà intuito vantaggi anche lui ?
I'm mediterranean myself and in every single mediterranean countries (Italy, Spain, Greece, Morocco, France, Lebanon, Egypt, Malta etc...) we use our hands a lot (like for saying anything). It's a cultural thing like the over use of olive oil in our food for example ;).
Haha yes indeed. Go Mediterraneans 💪✌️🤞👆👌🤙👍🤚
Morocco, Lebanon, Egypt and Malta ARE NOT mediterranean countries!!!
@@ksam5673 theyy areee!!!

Where from,my friend?
I had an Italian book for learning sign language for the hearing imparied, and it commented on the fact that often people in Naples can understand each other perfectly even if one is mute and the other doesn't know the "official" sign language, making it easier to be deaf here than in other countries :)
I live near Naples, and it is soo true. We gesticolate sooo much: there are like some words in the neapolitan dialect that I don't think I could say without moving my hands; it sounds crazy but they don't seem to have the same effect in my mind without the whole "gesticolating thing"😂
"Look at that asshole" ahaha mi ha fatto morire!! Sono una ragazza bulgara e vivo in italia da 15 anni, e anche io ormai utilizzo tutti quei gesti nella maniera più naturale... gli italiani hanno davvero un modo di comunicare pittoresco e contagioso!
I have an Italian friend who’s forbidden me from moving my hands while talking with her as it confused her greatly. Let’s just say that my hands didn’t agree with my mouth. 😅😂
Time to impress her and tell her how you feel about your hands being censored by using 1:18
"Look at that asshole" Hahahahah
LOL! Always useful to know...especially when driving in Italy 😆
+Marco in a BOX And safer in America since they won't understand :). Too many drivers shooting each other in the U.S.
+Riyadh K Better if accompained with : "MAVVAFFANCULOVAH"
Sono piemontese e si fa anche qua
ooo va sto stronzo
I F***** love it! I am a german sometimes I cannot come up with a witty response particuarly when I deal with rude agressive people, I will use some of the gestures,
and when they don`t understand, me ne frego!
+Anmeldn gute Idee ;)
Haha I'm glad this was useful! Expressing emotions with gestures is definitely more immediate (and fun!) 😉
I am italian and I love Germany
CIAO RAGAZZA TAKE CHANCE ON ME
all' "if I catch you" sono mortaaaa, mi hai fatto venire in mente mia mamma (calabrese) che mi fa "se ti pigghiu!"
😂😂
Muoio
Not certain about the points made but ,if anyone else needs to find out about how can i speak italian language try Jadonite Talk Italian Buddy (just google it ) ? Ive heard some super things about it and my co-worker got cool success with it.
SII ODDIOO, CON IL SANDALO MI DICEVA “si te pigghiu te azzu reglie reglie” 😂😂
NON CAPISCO COME IL RESTO DEL MONDO NON GESTICOLI MENTRE PARLA.
Poi al sud si gesticola un sacco, ringraziateci che senza i gesti non capireste una ceppa in dialetto.
I mean...we do. Just not as much. 😂
Senza la gestualità non ci capiremmo nemmeno tra noi italiani😂😂
Argentinian here, we use 90% of the gestures depicted in this video. And thats thanks to you!!!
@@TATO10892 it is funny for an italian to read a list of common Argentinian surnames since there are many with Italian parents and grandparents
Ciò che amo del sud è il modello greco dell'agorá: la città si vive in piazza tra la caciara delle persone e il continuo dialogo alla prima occasione. È un modello unico e che porta al perpetuo confronto con le opinioni altrui, utilissimo a espandere la propria apertura mentale.
Mi piace un po' meno l'inevitabile "alluccare" che contraddistigue spesso le vostre conversazioni, ma d'altronde, se si sta sempre tutti a parlare, è naturale che sia richiesto uno sforzo in più per farsi sentire!
Baci dal Nord 🇮🇹
Wow! I'm not even full Italian (my nonno is from Sicily) and I use a lot of these gestures without really realizing it! It must just be really easy to pick up subconsciously!
I love the nonno from Sicily. My nonni were also from the South of Italy :)
Victoria Zandi Same here! My nonno and nonna were born in Sicily, but im also half Irish. I do a lot of these and didn't even realize it lol!
I'm pretty similar, my papa came from Sicily too and I picked up most of the "I dunno" "I dont care" and "What?" gestures without knowing.
Ce n'è uno figo!
Quando "applaudi" facendo scorrere la mano destra lungo la sinistra e viceversa per dire "Boh, ho fatto!" o "Me ne lavo le mani"
ahahahah è vero
Da me se lo fai velocemente abbinandolo ad un sorriso malefico significa "hahaha ho la possibilità di fare qualcosa che mi conviene/che danneggia un mio nemico".
hai dimenticato di mettere 'il braccino corto' per dire che sei tirchio HAHAH
😂😂😂 bellissimo quello
When I met my first Italian friend, two things surprised me. One was she kissed me so loudly and the other one was her hand were always in the air.
Tutti dimenticano quando prendiamo la fronte scuotendo la testa come a dire: che ho fatto di male per meritarmi questo?
Verissimo! Me lo sono proprio dimenticato. Facciamo così tanti gesti... 😀
Già c:
+Marco in a BOX in English that gesture is called "the Picard facepalm"
È molto simile al facepalm americano
Poi faresti un video dove spieghi che in Italia quasi nessuno suona il mandolino? ti ringrazio infinitamente ahahhahaha
Ahah sì, ci sto pensando ;-)
Io neanche l'ho mai visto un mandolino dal vivo.
@@eleonoraf7817 Io ce l'ho a casa. Era del mio bisnonno (o qualcosa del genere...).
So ,I'm Romanian,living in Sicily since 2004. Gestures aren't always inherited , they are contagious.Everytime I go on holidays back to my country they know where i come from before i open my mouth.
One of the (few) things I love about being argentinian, is the gestures we inherited from Italians. We use almost all this 60, and the ones we don't are easily understandable
Same in U.S. in areas with Italian heritage. I use many of these. I laugh at some of these because I haven’t seem some of them in a very long time, but, they are instantly familiar.
I remember being criticized for gesturing when I was in college.
(It’s been 100 years and we are still not quite assimilated. Lol)

"Traaaac"
+Hello Hello Esatto proprio traac😂😂
Eccallà!
+Alfonso Formicola ahahaha esatto
Detto anche eccallà o ecchahallà😂
in argentina is exaclty the same! wow i didnt know we use sooo much italian gestures, almost all of them! XDD-viva italia!
60% of argentina population was composed by italian immigrants.. go check that out
***** i know...im argentinian and it was more than 60% XD
Shopping Rb ¿how do you know its not exactly, do you know what you are talking about?, we have the biggest italian innmigration. There is no other country that has so many italian innmigrants and roots. Over 65% of the country has italian roots. And no, we dont think we are the superior race of latin america, thats really stupid. And stupid of you to believe that shit. No one is superior than no one.
Los gestos además de ser italianos, son fácilmente entendidos por los españoles. A cualquiera del país ibérico que les muestres eso también va a saber de que están hablando.
Por eso básicamente entendemos todos los gestos, porque nuestra cultura está totalmente marcada por la imigración europea. Tristemente toda la marca cultural nativa de nuestras también raíces aborigenes fueron borradas desde Sarmiento, pasando por Roca, hasta los primeros presidentes del siglo pasado. Desde que Sarmiento popularizó su discurso xénofogo y racista, siempre como nación tendimos a vanagloriar lo del viejo continente, y a despreciar lo autoctono.
Y lo que dijo Shopping Rb es verdad, tal vez vos no seas así, y yo tampoco, pero sabemos muy bien que la mayoría de los demás argentinos creen que son mejores que los peruanos, bolivianos, paraguayos, etc, porque "son más blanquitos y más europeos"
Mare Maradin en realidad se mezclaron. he estudiado en profundidad la historia de roca y el mismo conto con fuerzas aborigenes de su lado. en realidad fue una guerra contra el cacique mapuche, que en sus malones venia y robaba el ganado y se llevaba a las mujeres y las tenia como esclavas sexuales. cada nueve meses aprox hacian eso. el ganado y lo robado de lo vendian a los ingleses del lado chileno a cambio de armas de fuego. el presidente anterior a roca les dio tierras para que cesen los malones, sin embargo volvieron a hacerlo. de todas formas ambos bandos hicieron cosas feas. tambien es cierto que antes y despues se ha menospreciado a los aborigenes. yo vivo en san martin de los andes y conozco bien la historia por que una parte sucedio donde vivo. hay 3 comarcas mapuches aca actualmente, y mantienen vivas sus raices, asique tampoco es tannn asi.
It's nice that lots of 'em are used here in Brazil too.
Hello Marco, I'm Brazilian and our country has received millions of Italians in the past. It is amazing how Italian culture is imbued with us. Almost all these gestures are used by us, mainly in the region of the State of São Paulo.
Il gesto che hai utilizzato per "you're cool" io lo uso più per identificare una persona... furbetta, che sa come raggiungere i suoi obiettivi. Mica sono l'unica?
no no la uso anch'io! come a dire "fai attenzione a quello che è un furbetto" (furbetto per non dire altro)
Si, o anche per dire "sa il fatto suo" :D
Edmeri _ in Puglia quello che "sa il fatto suo" si dice che è "fino fino" 😂
È Furba 😉
Nono anche qui a Napoli.
Usiamo quel gesto proprio per identificare una persona furba (figl e ndrocchij) hahahahaa
La lista di gesti più completa di sempre su RUclips ;)
Ah troppo gentile, GRAZIE!
Bello anche il tuo canale 😊
Marco in a BOX Grazie...ma il tuo mi sembra studiato meglio ;) In bocca al lupo! :)
Io molte di queste manco le sapevo hahaha
Who needs Duolingo when you can use this video to become fluent in Italian?
I'm falling in love with italians just by watching this video.
Mechelle Morrone brought me here. 😂
True..XD
Some of these gestures have the same meaning in Brazil, maybe they were brought by Italian immigrants. 😉
That'd be interesting indeed! Do people in brazil use often many of them?
+Camilla Mazzatenta Yes, but not as Italians do. Haha... 😉
We use a number of these in India as well.
actually, it's because Italy has been taken by many countries, Portugal and Spain was in Italy for many, many centuries, so they picked up some of these "body languages" for understand each other in Italy. After America discovered some of portugal and spanish occupant of Italy went in there, so Brazilian and Mexican's culture are very close to Italian culture.
The Italian body language was made to comunicate between all the country when it wasn't a country yet, because, as he showed you, we had so different occupant in our country in the same time, so we spoke very diffrent languages (nowadays there still are those languages and we call them Dialects (dialetti)) and we couldn't understand each other. So we developed body lenguage to comunicate, and that's why we have so many hand gesture and why our hand gesture are so similar with brazilian's!
+Creeperahah98 That' s quite an accurate and intersting explanation. Thanks :)
Hahaha! They should teach this in school! Well done Marco! I like it! :)
AdviseMyStyle Haha! My approach to teaching languages :)
As you know, knowing this stuff is quite useful when you live in or travel to Italy!
Marco in a BOX Mate... If I knew that when I first went to Italy, I would fit in far faster! I actually had a couple of friends teaching me the hand gestures later on. ;) I can't believe you found 60 though. I knew just 5. :)
+AdviseMyStyle NOOO WAYYYYY!!! JURE! :)))=)) ciao Jure! Come stai?! How did you end up here :D un grande bacione !
Tobias Tran Lol! Sto benissimo, grazie! Marco is my RUclips Manager and he is awesome. :)
Tanto ci metterebbero anni a capirli... Noi li abbiamo nel DNA
I'm Ecuadorian and we make the same gestures, in Miami as well- my Hispanic friends growing up, we made all these gestures. My favorite one is the hand gesture for perfect, we always did it to say "wow that dress looks perfect or you look incredible"😊
I love the similarities with our gestures in Spain, about 40 of those gestures are basically the same and have the same meanings, although we don't use them so much while talking. Though I don't know if other countries have so many similar gestures as well.
I Love everything about Italy and Italians they are the best people I ever seen
I love their country
Their food
Their language
The Italian people are so friendly and nice they are the best people in the World
I think I well Live in Italy one day 😉

Il "sei fortunato" ha anche un significato minatorio però
Actually, the "you're lucky" one has a threatening meaning as well.

Reminded me of my grandmother so much! God bless that women, the traditional Italian firecracker, best food and never a dull moment.
I was so excited to see this! My fiancee's name is Marco and that is why I watched y'all. I am from the South in the US and my Momma is Southern and also does ASL~ American Sign Language. As soon as I started watching this I realized that he and she will be able to bond over sign language, albeit Italian gestures aren't as comprehensive as ASL. Whoo hoo I am so happy because hopefully they are meeting next week :) God bless y'all for doing these.
Loved the one of "It's not my business"/ "I don't care" basically it's like washing your hands. In Puerto Rico we use "Me lavo las manos como Pilato" with the same context.
Me lavo las manos...brilliant! 😉
In fact while we do that gesture we say "me ne lavo le mani", which means "i wash my hands", like Pilato says in the Bible
H Valentin we say the same in italy too! "me ne lavo le mani", sometimes italian uses "come Pilato" too!
1:41 io sono solito usarlo per intendere "come volevasi dimostrare" o "tutto secondo i piani"
O come diciamo a roma il bellissimo 'eccalà' e il 'e te pareva!'
Infatti ha significati diversi
NerderGame L-E-2.0 'U sapev ji' a Bari lol
ECCALLÀ!
The best language tutorial video Ive seen yet!
I really enjoy your videos! Italian gestures are very common here in Argentina (especially people from Buenos Aires tend to be very expressive with their hands and face expressions). I think it's because Italians have emigrated to many different countries, including Argentina. I'm proud of having a strong influence of Italian culture, it's so poetic. When I was a child I didn't understand why I moved my hands every time I spoke, after all I discovered the reason.
I love your videos Marco!!!! I am an Italian culture enthusiast and I find your videos very helpful!
Thank you Cameron. Glad to hear that 😊
ė strano sentire parlare un italiano così bene in americano. Miracolo!
che lingua è l'americano?
+Pierpaolo Pierpa più che altro lo slang.. La lingua è sempre inglese ovviamente
Infatti è italiano o sbaglio?
Quindi io sarei strano? XD
+I Calarmati voglio un calarmato
I work with Italian from 2013 and I understood some of those masseges using hand. Grazie Marco
Ci voleva un canale così!! Finalmente qualcuno che ci ha pensato!
Definitely the most exhaustive and precise video on Italian gestures!
GRAZIE Andrea Zilio ;)
Secondo me la gente non italiana si cofonde sia a parlare mentre gesticola che a guardare noi (che poi non sanno neanche dove guardarci viste le mille gesta😂) fare tutti quei gesti mentre parliamo😂
ahahahahah una volta un ragazzo mi chiese se per favore la potevo piantare di muovere le mani perché non riusciva a concentrarsi sulla discussione, inutile dire che sono scoppiata a ridergli in faccia poveretto 😉
+Antares nel cuore oddio non ci credo😂😂 di dov'era questo ragazzo? Credo che se ci fossi stata io mi avrebbe direttamente dato un pugno😂
Non mi ricordo, se non sbaglio russo 😂 era il padre di una ragazza che ho conosciuto, lei parla abbastanza bene l'italiano mentre il papà no, quindi poverino si doveva concentrare un pó per capire quello che dicevo, è stato un momento epico!
+Antares nel cuore già non capiva in più tutti i nostri gesti, fantastico😂
Ahahahahah
Ahahahahahah, I' m Italian, this video is wonderful, I laughed so much!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you so much for the information i am from bulgaria and sometimes we also use some of these gestures when speaking it proves just how amazing and spread italian culture is.
Most of these gestures are quite universal.
Native Americans developed a sophisticated sign language for the same reason Italians developed hand gestures; they lived in multilingual societies. By the way, the Chinese have this same problem. Their solution was to develop a writing system based on ideas rather than sound. This means Cantonese speakers and Mandarin speakers can read documents written in traditional Chinese even though those are mutually unintelligible languages.
Luis The Humanist that’s interesting
Grazie Marco, con questo video ho capito quante volte utilizzo questo linguaggio muto senza accorgermene! Siamo meravigliosi!!! :)
I am so happy I discovered your channel through this video!
fratellooo sei troppo legnoso, ho abitato in sicilia 20 anni, te li farei vedere io i veri gesti :) fluenti ed eleganti, dai rilassati:D
Italian influence in Venezuela is huge !!! basically all those hand movements we make here in Venezuela, the Italian community in Venezuela is very large like the Spanish community. I loved the video I felt very identified, kisses from Venezuela !!
+eleonora medina you're totally right. I was about to say the same thing :D I'm from Venezuela and never thought we did so many gestures while speaking. It might also be because of my Italian family's influence, but still it's spread all over our country :D
Yeah, it's amazing how much we look alike as peoples, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese influence in Venezuela is very large. I loved your comment !! saludos desde Venezuela!!
+eleonora medina we do this in São Paulo as well... when I went to Russia people laughed at me to talk with hands, hahaha
Ananda D'Aquino the Italian community in Brazil is huge, my cousin lives in Sao Paulo for 15 years and now lives in Brasilia and told me that Brazil is a very diverse country like Venezuela has many influences from different countries and that's one of the things that BrazilIt is a very special country.
Qué bueno! Gracias por tu comentario!
I'm really starting to think Italians are literally everywhere 😊
I'd love to visit Venezuela and the rest of South America. Hopefully soon.
Besitos 😗
Most of them are used in many different countries, not only in Italy. That's interesting!👌
I love being Italian AND I think you are gorgeous Marco!!!!!
I love how you wear your hat, Marco! Can't wait to see more videos!
Haha thanks Johnny 😉👒
sei adorabile... finalmente c'è qualcuno che spiega il perchè della gestualità italiana!!!
Ahhh grazie! Che bel commento :)
Mi fa piacere ti sia piaciuto il video. Ne ho appena pubblicato uno nuovo sulle "regole Italiane": ruclips.net/video/K6G_clfRX5U/видео.html
+Marco in a BOX già visto e votato pollice su... ovviamente!!! ... condiviso su facebook... spero di raggiungere più persone perché sono orgoglioso quando vedo video italiani ben fatti e con buoni contenuti!!!
WOW! Grazie mille davvero :)
I litteraly feel at home right now!!!😂😍 Grazie mille 😍
So many common gestures with Greece!! Cool!!
Marco hai dimenticato il gesto dell'ombrello, per il resto perfetto *fa l'occhiello con pollice e indice*
Eheh il gesto dell'ombrello è piuttosto internazionale 😏
I love this video and I've used it countless times in classes in Japan to show differences in communication between cultures.
we like the italian gesture
it always means please
its great to show how to please something you want or need
We use most of these gestures here in Argentina plus some others of our own culture that was heavily inculcated by all the Italians that emigrated here, it's so cool to realize we are so similar in this aspect of talking with our hands all the time :D
I'd love to visit Argentina. I would feel very at home over there 😍
+Marco in a BOX True, you should mate, we have sooo many beautiful places where to go that I can recommend you, also you would get to know how similar we are in the whole cultural/food and way of talking aspect and our mores and things, we even have words derived from the Italian language adapted to our Spanish dialect, such as laburo and mangar that stands for lavoro and mangiare, or to call our grandparents nona and nono 😊
Being from the US, I noticed quite a few of these gestures have worked their way into our own tendency to indicate certain things, such as the gesture for "crazy." Although I gotta say that the language and the gestures have more impact when used together. I plan on traveling around Europe at some point in the future, so this video was both amusing and helpful. :)
Renzi will make you change idea
Nice! My great grandpa was Italian and I didnt even realize how much of these me and my family were actually using in our every day lifes lol
Many of these exist in Brazil, that's amazing!
Ahahah ho riso come uno scemo, in effetti non mi accorgo di tutti i gesti che faccio quando parlo :D Iscritto!
+Alessandro Murtas si ma non sono così accentuati tutti quei gesti.ita
but they are not as pronounced all those gestures.uk
Splendido xD da italiana è sia buffo che interessante vedere questa tipologia di video :)
Ma il gesto che hai fatto all'1.41 per me significa anche "appunto", "com volevasi dimostrare"
E quello del 2.02 pe me si riferisce anche ad una persona furba.. :)
So Italian! I love it! Thank you !👍
Some are not complete, they may be explained better. But it's the better video i've ever seen that explain so well theese concepts! Grandissimo!
Hey! Very funny and interesting to know! I couldn't imagine we had so much in common! I'm French and I know and usually use about the half of all of these gestures !
il "Pota" è fondamentale da spiegare agli stranieri :')
Il caro vecchio pota! Intraducibile.... 😂
I am an actor playing an Italian.Thank you so much for such an educational and hillarious piece!
Loved this and because I am hearing-impaired, I have had to learn some basic Sign Language. This comforts me I could go to Italy and get by at times without knowing much Italian as the signs are almost the same! Thanks for this video!
Mi hai fatto piegare dalle risate! Complimenti davvero👍🏻😂
ih ih grazie 😂
Oh mann
I'm living in Italy for 3 years but still couldn't learn the Italian language well
I learnt in 8 months. Get an Italian boyfriend.
Grazie Mille Marco. I just recently started watching your channel. Even though im 61 years old i can still learn these hand gestures. 👌 Buone vacanze and Buon Natale Ciao.
Beautiful video Marco! You’re a genius! It’s not easy to put together all the Italian gestures. I don’t know if someone has written a book on this important matter ... hugs from my awesome Trentino. Take care guys! Alfonso
Ho dovuto mostrare questo ai miei amici americani, in modo che non mi guardano come un teppista. (PS io sono italiano-francese)
Ciao! :)Hi! I'm Italian and I want to say that you do a good video, you explain very well the italian gestures!
Grazie mille Carlotta :)
Prego!!!! Non mi aspettavo di ricevere una risposta..😊
quindi siete italiani??!
Mi sono appena iscritta al vostro canale! :)
lol love it! I will be using at least half of these when I am in Italy. So helpful!!!! Grazie!!
Bravo Marco! Ottimo lavoro! 😃👌🏼
Ma sei proprio simpatico. Mi diverto moltissimo a vedere i tuoi video. Grazie!
Grazie mille a te 😘
Ahh! Ti sei dimenticato il mio preferito: il gesto dell'ombrello ;) next chapter? :*
Ehhhhh ma quello è internazionale - non è una prerogativa italiana ;-)
+Marco in a BOX Già... i francesi lo chiamano "Bras d'honneur" o qualcosa del genere
perdona la mia ignoranza ma sei italiano?
perdona la mia ignoranza ma sei italiano?
perdona la mia ignoranza ma sei italiano?
Wow! What a great video! Interesting with the specific meanings of the various gestures.
Of course as an English introvert I communicate by remaining completely still while transferring my thoughts psychically.
Che bello Marco. Grazie!
Spanish people use like, 80% of these too, on a daily basis ahhahah
