[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are different dialects of most romance (and other languages), however. If you say a slang word to one person -- another person, though from the same country or continent, might not know what you are saying - or may think it is something else entirely. You need to know your exact context, OP. You can't just go saying things that are unfamiliar to you. How old are you? [/quote] Agreed. [b]Unless you are of Italian origin, or at least have been married into an Italian family for 20 years, you really have no business saying these things. [/b][/quote] Oh please! I'm in NY--ethnic slang words like "schmuck", "stunad", "gringo" etc...they've all entered the lexicon of the masses (the greatest extent that swear/slang Words can), whether one is of that background or not.[/quote] A good New Yorker should be able to swear in Italian, Yiddish, Spanish and at least a couple of other languages.
