Welcome to Comme se dice?, the podcast that celebrates the Neapolitan language and its rich cultural heritage. In this fourth episode, we dive into the world of the words “Paisà” and “Sciuscià,” terms that narrate stories from an era marked by World War II, the struggles of immigrants, and pivotal historical events such as the Quattro Giornate di Napoli.
Throughout the episode, we analyze the historical context in which these words were born and evolved, highlighting their connection with neorealist films – particularly Roberto Rossellini’s Paisà and Vittorio De Sica’s Sciuscià. By exploring this dialogue between history, cinema, and everyday language, we uncover how “Paisà” and “Sciuscià” have become enduring symbols of resilience, courage, and rebirth, conveying the daily realities of life during times of crisis and change.
This episode is an invitation for anyone interested in exploring the intricate links between language and history, providing insightful reflections on how words can encapsulate entire eras and cultures. Whether you are passionate about history, neorealist cinema, or the Neapolitan language, get ready for an exciting journey into the heart of historical and artistic memory. Press play, relax, and let yourself be carried away by a narrative that unites art, reality, and emotion. Jammo ja!

In the first episode of No Such Thing as a Synonym, we kick things off with a pair of very familiar verbs: "see" and "watch". 

When you look up these words in a dictionary you’ll find they have virtually identical definitions. However, I want to let you in on a secret – the dictionary isn’t telling you the whole story. 

In this episode, we’ll explore the pragmatic and subtle differences between the two words, including the difference between “seeing a film” and “watching a film” and “seeing someone fall off their bike” and “watching someone fall off their bike”. 

Listen along to learn something new!

🪨 From the stone he carried in his pocket to the life he built abroad, Neil’s journey is one of survuval and change.
