Boxtree Phrasebook: Learn to Speak Mafia

Viac o knihe

So you wanna be a wiseguy? Have you ever watched Goodfellas on DVD, adopted a friendly-but-menacing expression in front of the bathroom mirror and asked if your reflection thinks you're funny? Funny how, like a clown, I amuse you?' Now try that out in authentic Italian. Repeat after me Stylish how-to photographs demonstrate a whole range of genuinely Italian, beautifully disdainful gestures, while a useful glossary will help you to distinguish a friend of ours' from a friend of mine' at twenty paces. With Italian translations of all of your favourite Mafia film quotes and useful everyday phrases ( You have a lovely restaurant. I would hate to see it accidentally burnt to the ground.'), this book gives you all the ammunition you need to pretend to be a made guy'. BadaBING!
