... gab mir doch Gambetti an diesem Vormittag wieder eine wertvolle Lektion der Mühelosigkeit und Leichtigkeit und Unendlichkeit des Italienischen, das zum Deutschen in demselben Verhältnis stehe, wie ein völlig frei aufgewachsenes Kind aus wohlhabendem und glücklichem Hause zu einem unterdrückten, geschlagenen und dadurch verschlagenen aus dem armen und ärmsten.

Anna40 @AceOnRoam it's about how he perceives Italians as children who grew up in a "free way" free spirit coming from a happy well of family and contrasting them with the Germans who come from a poor oppressed beaten home. Mine is not a great translation that's the idea... poor Germans! 7y

Anna40 Well-off 7y

AceOnRoam Thanks for the translation 😊 7y

Izai.Amorim Well, Germans do admire the Italian (and French) way of life, and Italians admire German efficiency and classical culture (Goethe, Rilke, etc). Germans enjoy the disorganization and confusion - as long as they don‘t miss their flight. 😂 It‘s a very difficult relationship. As Italians say, “Germans love but don‘t respect us. We respect but don‘t love them.” 😎 7y

Anna40 @Izai.Amorim Two very different nations 😊 hope the elections won't bring Berlusconi 🤤🤤🤤back 7y

Izai.Amorim It looks like it could happen. At least our Italian friends won‘t feel that ashamed this time, after orange man even bugalunga man seems acceptable. Isn‘t that crazy? 7y

Anna40 You know what's really scary? I think you're right! Not only orange man but also the fact that there is no one you can actually vote for are a humungous problem! I dissuaded my husband from voting for Lega Nord! And he is not a supporter at all he simply did not know who to vote for! I was totally in shock! So facelift, hairtransplant mafia mysoginistic bugalunga man will probably win!!! 😭😭😭😭 7y

Anna40 @Izai.Amorim the above post was for you. Forgot to tag you 7y

Izai.Amorim @Anna40 I feel very sorry for Italy. No good choices. The right won‘t solve any problem, the left is a joke, our friends call Renzi a “left-wing Andreotti” 😮 and the five star people are anti Europe, when Europe is the only good thing Italy still have. 7y

Anna40 Yep! That's pretty much what my husband said. 😔 7y

Anna40 @Izai.Amorim I forgot to tag you above... he IS back 😭😭😭 7y

Izai.Amorim @Anna40 Yes, he‘s back. Who could have thought that a billionaire, whose fortune is of dubious, many say criminal origin, with the sole goal of using the office to enrich himself and stop legal action against him, a lier, womanizer, misanthrope, egomaniacal, low-IQ person with bad hair and fake tan could ever get elected? Unprecedented tragedy. Possible Only in Italy, vero, cara mia? Incredibile. 🤷‍♂️ 7y

Anna40 @Izai.Amorim couldn't be phrased better! Sad depressing times.. 7y
