Language Diary Challenge: Che Figuraccia! (Part 2)

5/19/2017

Hey guys! So in case you don't follow me on Instagram or Facebook (links above if you just click on the icons under the blog title!), I'm doing the LANGUAGE DIARY CHALLENGE by Katie, the creator of the Joy of Languages blog. The idea is to post something every day in the language that you are learning, so of course I'm posting in Italian. You can check out the other videos I've done on the Questa Dolce Vita blog Facebook page. This is Part 2 of two videos that I did on the topic of La Figuraccia.

Figuraccia, in Italian, means "bad impression" and so is used when you make a fool of yourself in a situation like when you mess up words in a second language. In this video, I share the last three examples of times that my English-speaking friends and I have said ridiculous things in Italian.

Anyways, let me know in comments (here or on Facebook) what you've said by mistake that ended up being hilarious...! It doesn't have to be an Italian example either, I'd love to hear similar stories with other languages! And I apologize in advance for swearing in Italian, but it was necessary to make this video!
