Estratto da: *10 things Italy does better than anywhere else* By Jordan Burchette and Silvia Marchetti, for CNN 3. Cursing Be it in Italian or any other language, the accent of native Italy turns any expletive into a blunt force instrument. Rhythmic, staccato and with an almost operatic legato that fuses syllables together like a hammer-on guitar note, swearing here is a performance art. Inspired mostly by pigs, anatomical exit points and promiscuous women, Italian profanities, which vary by region, sound equal parts dramatic, angry and comical. Powered by the passion characteristic of the Italian people, the results stun, intimidate and even charm their recipients, sometimes all at once.
