Not even close

It was this:

Sollozzo - Can you belive that stupid Mick is my bodyguard?
Michael - No more than I believe that's the best veal in the city.
Sol - Well, he doesn't know the difference.
Michael - Yeah well my jaw is so f*cked up I can't even chew veal.
Sol - Yeah well, I'm sorry about that, but what else can you expect from a stupid cop like that? You should sue the city. I'm sure the judges here will give you a fair break.
Michael (laughing) - The wine any good in here?
Sol - Sure, have some.
Michael - First, I get your trying to shoot my father was just business.
Sol - It was, I swear.
Michael - Hey, I don't know what the hel you want with me, I don't even want to be in the mob.
Sol - I still want to make a deal.
Mike - I gotta take a leak.

The translator's over at the house playing pinochle with a couple of the guys. He's happy, they're letting him win. grin

lol clap

Plus, I'd add Sollozzo's last words after Mike pulled the trigger for the first time on McCluskey:

Sol: Eh, Mikey, how come you shot him in the throat and a red dot appeared on his forehead? Is that a paintball gun or what?

Mike: Nah, since he's gonna be off your payroll in a coupla seconds, I thought he'd do better as an Indian bride.

To which Michael replied:

Sorry about offing you Sol, that was just business too. Personally I always liked you.
I'll say hi to everyone who works at your heroin processing plant when I am in Sicily.

Hi!
It was me who posted this little video on youtube, based on a transcript I found on a Website of Sicilian Germans.
As far as I know now, there are one or two mistakes:
1) Instead of saying: "do you want to play" in Sicilian, he's actually saying: "but i want that" or "ma voggiu ca" instead of "ma vu giucar".
2) I'm not sure about "Sul serio".

Today I got this comment for my translation on youtube:
"Italian Americans speak Italian very bad. I met some in the US and they really don't know any gramar. This because the Italians who initially emigrated to the US were poor and illiterate and spoke only local dialects. What they're speaking here has nothing to do with Italian. It's some sort of sicilian mixed with calabrian with an american accent. An average person from, say, Milan or Venice would have problems in understading this. (Indeed in the italian version they've dubbed this part too). "

That's not surprising. Italian is full of dialects and the Italian that gets passed down from one generation to another would tend to deteriorate over time. What little I know my Dad had a hard time understanding my pronunciation or the context in which I used it. By the way, people in Milan or venice not only use somewhat different grammar and vocabularly, but their pronunciation is different too.

The same can be true of other languages. For example, I have many students who are Hispanic and speak Sapnish. But, some of them cannot readily understand certain phrases, vocabulary of other Spanish speakers. In fact, I have not found a Spanish speaking person yet who can translate some of the Spanish spoken in the film Carlito's Way.

Yeah, but the average Milanese and Venetians are snobs. tongue
