10 phrases that Italian mom will say

The whole world knows how anxious Italians feel about their mothers. Many girls who have married a representative of the stronger sex in Italy know that they will never eclipse their mother-in-law, either in life or in everyday life. An Italian mom will never let her child out of the house hungry or lightly dressed. Most likely, this child, whether he is a year or forty years old, will practically "roll out" of the house in so many clothes that it will look like an Eskimo.

So, we picked up ten phrases that are very, very likely to hear from an Italian mother.

"Have you eaten?" - This question is a real mantra for every Italian who has children. This is her main concern. She will ask this question even on her deathbed. Needless to say, how important it is for her to hear the answer. An Italian mother will call her child, sit him in the kitchen and let him go from the table only when she finally makes sure that her precious child has eaten the right amount of food, comparable in volume to the size of an elephant calf.

"You cannot go out like that. You will catch a cold!" - It doesn’t matter at all that you wear a down jacket or a fur coat that is hotter than on the surface of Jupiter. Mom Italian will still consider that you are not dressed warmly enough. And, for heaven’s sake, don’t leave your house with a wet head: “You’ll catch pneumonia!” And try not to run: "You will sweat and get sick! And by the way, did you eat?"

"Why haven’t you found (found) yourself a good girl (guy)?" - In the world of Italian mothers, love is something simple and taken for granted, something that is easy to find and difficult to lose, something that does not encounter any obstacles in its path. In a word, nothing can stop you from finding your half. It’s just worth a little effort.

"So he (she) is good enough (good), but you can find better." - Acquaintance with the family of your Italian half may seem to you more like a scene from the movie "The Godfather", rather than friendly "gatherings." Let's be honest: you will never seem to the mother of your chosen Italian as worthy of her smart, beautiful and simply amazing son.

"You look bad, aren't you sick?" - Sometimes it seems that Italian mothers can not think of anything other than the appearance of their precious children and their health.

"I washed your things and stroked them. Oh yes, and I cleaned your room." - If your mother is Italian, then you know that your clothes will always exude a pleasant and fresh aroma, and your things will be carefully folded and packed.

"You can become the UN Secretary General, why not?" - It does not matter how much you do not believe in yourself and what kind of black streak you experience in life. An Italian mother will always assure her child that he is the best and most brilliant of all, and that he can do anything. This is the most amazing thing in Italian families: you will always find in them a sea of ​​warmth and support.

"You want to say that you intend to study in another city?" - Italian parents adore their children so much that the mere thought that they want to flee from their "nest" provokes the active use of numerous persuasion techniques. "Why do you want to leave if you can live here? We will miss you. And how will you eat there?"

“No, no, don’t get up, you’re sick. I’ll do everything myself” - If the beloved child of the Italian mother, God forbid, gets sick, he better stay at home and not admit it. After all, an Italian mother with her over-care can convince the patient that he is so hopeless that he can not move his hand.

"Where will I sleep?" - When, at thirty, the Italian “chick” is finally ready to fly away from his father’s house, he may be faced with the fact that he will not succeed so simply. For an Italian mother, he will forever remain a baby who, in her opinion, is absolutely helpless without her care and help. Therefore, the mother will often go home to her offspring to make sure that he has not died of starvation and has not lost his way in the middle of the mountains of garbage.
