    In restaurants there are more Albanians working there than Italians: it's definitely Italy

    Morale della favola: se vuoi parlare italiano a New York, cerca un albanese ! 😅 cari amici dell'Albania, grazie mille di aver imparato la nostra lingua e di preservarla in terre statunitensi ^^

    When my grandparents moved to Chicago in the 1920s they didn't speak a word of English. But they forbade anyone to speak Italian to us. Because it was really looked down on, it put them very much in the lower class of American society at the time. They were strongly invested in having us be English-only American citizens for our own benefit. And that was a really painful thing for our family. We paid a price for that.

    What I learned from this video: there's a lot of Italian speaking Albanians who own/ work at Italian restaurants in New York.

    Hands up to Orazio because he didn't lose his Sicilian accent. Greetings from Sicily

    My favourite thing about this video is the clear difference between those who speak italian but born in the us (and it's not an easy feat learning a language while not immersed in the culture, so obviously kudos to them!) and those who came from italy. They immediately start shouting and gesturing, it feels so much like home! 💕

    When I was a little boy, I used to watch my father fix his cars. Often when he ran into problems repairing them, he would swear at his cars in Italian. That's how I learned to swear in Italian.

    The overwhelming majority of Italian immigrants who settled in New York City from 1880 - 1924 were from Southern Italy and didn't speak formal Italian. They spoke Neapolitan or Sicilian.

    The fact that they've lost the language for me is a tragedy. They need to teach the children Italian at home cause English is inevitable everywhere else.

    For me as a German, but also being able to speak fluently Italian and English, it’s always heartwarming to see people in other places, speak languages, that I understand😊

    I love this video because it gives you a "slice" of what genuine human interactions are. I love seeing people's face light up when they realize they share something with someone else.

    To all the people that think they know why. A lot of albanians born in the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and till early 90s know how to speak italian, especially coming from midwest Albania, because that was the “forbidden” TV/Radio that they looked/listened during the communist era. It was the only contact that we had with the western world. I speak so fluent Italian that sometimes the Italians don’t believe that I’m albanian. Then, obviously, in the States there are no borders and they mix (the guy that says he is albanian, but his mom is italian). The Mafia correlation is not the reason. It is more of a result. My wife, both my parents, my sisters in law speak fluent italian.

    in Little Italy there are all nationalities except Italians, years ago I went to a restaurant where there was an Italian at the door who welcomed customers, who emigrated decades ago, I ate a carbonara, when I got up from the table to go to the bathroom I took a look at the kitchen, only Asians worked inside, and the pasta was very salty, much better McDonald's.

    as an Italian boy I want to congratulate Albanians because many of them are really fast on learning Italian and they are also great Italian speakers

    I saw the light in Orazio's eyes when he talked about Sicily and his family. It filled my heart.
