    1. Straight from my authentic, country-bred Italian wife: "Almeno quando parlo l'italiano, posso usare le mani"

  3. this is also true for greek. if you sit there stiff as a stick, most greeks wont understand. our language relies a lot on hand gestures to deliver so much

    1. Heh, I think I remember that from Hetalia. I think it was that Italy would be unable to breathe if his hands were tied for too long? Something like that...

    2. I thought that it was that he wasn't able to talk, but it could have been that...
