Italy’s Gov’t wants to fine people who say ‘Bruschetta’ wrong

Italy’s ruling party is fed up with the blatant Englishization of their language. They are seeking to pass a new law that requires people to use ciao to English words to express Italian food real love.

CNN reports that Giorgia Meloni, the Italian prime minister, is proposing to impose fines of up EUR100,000. ($108,705) on people who use words or phrases in languages other than Italian for official communication.

According to the bill’s text, the proposed law is designed to end “Anglomania,” which “demeans” and “mortifies” Italian culture and language. It could also penalize those who mispronounce words such as “Bruschetta.”

CNN reports that the proposed law could result in Italians being penalized for pronouncing Bruschetta’s name as “bru-shetta” instead of “bru-sketta”. It could be considered an insult to say “Grazie” in Italian without using the correct accentuation at its end. This could also be a serious offense for Italian bureaucrats.

Quite frankly, we may have won the election, but there’s still a war to be fought and the Left isn’t resting; they’re regrouping. And now that Donald Trump is Time’s Person of the Year, you can be assured their feelings have been exacerbated. They’re not singing Kumbaya in DC just yet. In fact, they’re plotting ways to embarrass him and cause him to fail. Will you join our efforts to fight back and defeat them?. We can’t wait until January 21—that will be too late!

CNN reports that parliamentarian Fabio Rampelli stated in the draft bill, “It’s not just a matter fashion, as fashions change,” The bill will soon be up for debate in parliament, as Meloni’s party supports it.

Italian citizens would have to use their native language “for promotion and use public goods and services within the national territory.” They could also face fines of up to EUR100,000.

Euronews reports that Meloni’s government will have to stop using longer Italian expressions in english. Instead of “dispenser,” politicians will have to use “dispensatore de liquido igienizzante for le mani.”

The law would be even more comprehensive in terms of cultural implications.

CNN reports that the culture ministry will form a committee to help students at universities, schoolchildren, and businesspeople pronounce Italian words correctly — and avoid any fines.
