Meloni's party looks to shield Italian language from foreign contamination

"It is not just a matter of fashion, as fashions pass, but Anglomania repercussions for society as a whole," said the text of the draft bill, calling for the Italian language to be protected and nurtured.

It said the spread of English "demeans and mortifies" Italian and proposed that all public and private bodies had to use the language of Dante to promote their goods and services. The bill said the widespread use of English in Europe was "even more negative and paradoxical" given that Britain had quit the European Union.

As long as you make this gesture no matter what words you use you speak italian...

“Language” (singular) 🙄

People using this 👌🏼 instead of this 🤌🏼?

Tom_Fowdy Why impose a 100K fine where €20 would be enough?

🤣

So, they will ban words like 'computer' and 'Internet'?

Perhaps protecting the language is the only thing he can do?

I wish we had someone like her.

Lol... I've heard this line before

Distracting the public from real issues that need her attention

Love this woman! As Leftist intolerance and gender madness engulf the US and Britain, she's a breath of fresh air and reason.

She is slowly getting scripts from Mussolini 's books. They are clearly inter twined.

Excellent leader. Someone who is genuine and not infected by this outrageous woke ideology from the left. Italy is getting stronger and hogging the limelight of Europe with their pathetic leaders.

That others go out their way to speak English keeps reinforcing Anglo hegemony. This is especially why you have many native English speakers who don’t bother to learn other languages. It is unnecessary. Culture and language are the most powerful mechanism of power.

Good luck with that one because language lives under the entire population and the harder you shout to an Italian he cannot do something... 🤣 Hold my beer

Sounds very Quebec ish.

Italians got it right! Bravo italia 🇮🇹 GiorgiaMeloni

🤡

Italians? Only foolish fascists

Italian's first steps toward becoming a dead language, like its forebear, Latin.

The bus left a long time on that one. Or even the autobus 😂😂😂

You mean like the ancient Greeks contaminated Italian.

Gabagool!

Finally something right shes doing

what in the xenophobia

Could you imagine if North America had said at one point we are going to protect the English language from contamination by the Italian language? So absurd

Good for them.

Laughs in Romance languages.😂

Maybe go back to the ”pure” Latin of the Republic?

soldi del pnrr vanno sorpesi🇮🇹

Can't wait to move to Italy after biden finishes destroying America in the next few years.

Good

Any minute now, she'll show up with fab military designer outfit...

This is an extreme nationalist who believes in conspiracy bullshit and is popular, not good.

lol....to pretend that government can control language is pure fantasy. It is also telling how much people in government believe they can control others.

In Québec, Canada 🇨🇦…this is not new …

but not the country borders

No more than what the French have done for decades now.

Is she banning 'OK' ?

Creo que cada cultura debe cuidar su idioma y no permitir usar palabras de otro idioma mezcladas. Se deben enseñar obviamente otros idiomas pero deben estar definidos por sus límites históricos y no usar cualquier palabra que esté de moda.

So if I say “dat’s a spicy meat-a-ball!” I could go to jail? I thought this was America?!?

Momma Mia

LOL at ignorant commenters below. They wont call the French government 'fascist' for doing the same long time before Italians did.

'contamination' is a very ugly word

Oh this always goes well

What

That's good! We should have that in Germany as well. But the problem here is the advertising industry! They are responsible for all that shit here!!

Are they gonna claim the word 'fascist' for themselves or nah?

Via a fare nel… Fascista

No one even speaks Italian tho apart from Italy obviously.
