Discussioni Wikipedia:Ambasciata/Lamborghini Countach
Da Wikipedia, l'enciclopedia libera.
Buongiorno!
Unfortunately, that's about the only word of Italian I know.
In any case, the article on the English Wikipedia about the Lamborghini Countach claims that the name, Countach, is a rude word in the Piedmontese dialect meaning something like (and I apologise for the swearing) "holy fucking cow!" ; some other websites[1] claim it is an expression to describe a beautiful woman. Can somebody who knows this dialect tell me what "Countach" actually means? Grazie! --en:User:Robert Merkel
- Robert, I just left a note in Discussione:Lamborghini Countach. I'm not Piedmontese, therefore I cannot answer about the specific of your question. Nevertheless, several slang Italian words have such double face - although they remain very colloquial words (sometimes even insults), certainly not suitable for a polite speech or a formal occasion. --Paginazero - Ø 09:24, 9 feb 2006 (CET)
