Hoi,
When you think that Italy is the same as Tuscany then you are right.. The
map is however a wee bit bigger, and Ethnologue lists some 33 language for
Italy. There are enough Italian languages that have their own dialects...
and many of these dialects are considered not mutually understandable.
Thanks,
GerardM
That's not right, the italian language is borned in the 1300 by the
toskany's "vulgar" (vulgar was a direct derivation of the latin), but
this
is quite OT ^_^.
Senpai

Hoi,
When Americans speak English, it may be different but it is English.
When
the Italians speak, they do not necessarily speak
Italian. Italian was
created at the unification of Italy, the culture, the cooking is
different
along similar lines, the history goes back
centuries and it is a living
history. I know that there are big differences culturally in the USA
and
that is something to be cherished.
