We won the last soccer match ITALIA vs ENGLAND, but now ITALIA vs GERMANY is a historic match that reminds us of how many Italians have emigrated to Germany
For this reason, our word of the day is ACCETTATO: past participle of ACCETTARE (TO ACCEPT, TO ADMIT). In this case BE ACCEPTED BY… society.
In fact, in this great old movie, famous actor Nino Manfredi played a brilliant role as an Immigrant in Switzerland with a lot of job problems in the Seventies.
FORZA ITALIA!
About “accettato” issue, there are a lot of stories (also here http://www.northendstories.com ) that they can testify an hard time we, Italian Americans, spent all of our lives. Hopefully Italy now trust on us providing good teachers and lessons to learn Italian.
