ORIGINAL: pelthunter Depends on the language you are speaking. Genoa in English, Genova in Italian? quote:
ORIGINAL: geofflambert Yes we know. Venezia, Livorno, Milano, Roma, Napoli, Turino, Baloney [sik][sic]. Just don't say Vienna (Wien, pronounced 'veen'). You may however continue to pronounce Worcester Wooster, Leicester Lester, New Orleans Nawlins, Burma Shave 'Burma Shave', Espania Spain. You get my point. I love Livorno! Nice sea, nice girls, nice ponci (rum & cognac) and nice cinque-e-cinque (col pepe ma senza melanzane). What you say? I live there? Oh, yes, I live here
