Translating Italian Punk Rock Lyrics I'm having a tough time translating the chorus to one of my favorite punk rock songs. WARNING: THIS IS PUNK AND IT IS OFFENSIVE. IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE IT DON'T READ ANY FURTHER. (ATTENZIONE: SE SEI UN PERBENISTA NON LEGGERE QUESTA DOMANDA!) Ecco: "Senti la tua verità ma come puzza dosi di meschinità ma quanto basta tra qualche anno chissa come cambierai lasciami stare io so già chi sei giudica sta storia dai giudicala come vuoi giudica sta storia dai giudicala come sei se io fossi come te mi sparo in bocca signorino tutto punk ma con la firma e in tutto questo la coerenza dove sta è dentro il cesso ma sei tu che vuoi giudica sta storia dai giudicala come sei giudica sto cazzo dai tu colpisci ma non fai male no tu potevi sezionarmi e poi insinuare sul mio passato ma chi ha detto che la tua parola io l’ascolterò" Ho capito quasi tutto tranne il ritornello. Giudica sta storia dai? Cosa vogliono dire?

Crucial Questions for Native Italian Speakers (part 2) This question is intended for people who are fluent in English and Italian. You know who you are. Time to put your skills to the test. I want to be able to say the following phrases in Italian: "Grappa comes in two flavors: Palatable and Gasoline. Choose wisely." "Do you think I have a shot at getting in as an act to this year's San Remo Music Festival?" "They banned smoking in all the bars? What's next? No drinking and no talking?" "Why are all the people here so skinny and attractive? Jesus I feel like a bridge troll. Everyone is looking at me like they can't safely pass my way without answering three questions." "My country exports our crappy food to your country. For some reason you seem not to mind. Soon we will be exporting our economy. I don't think that you'll be so chipper then." "While we're on the topic of exportation, how come obtaining illegal drugs is a cinch here in America but I can't find Grapello anywhere? What is this world coming to?"
