Just because your Italian is not enough to join the Ndrangheta. It is mostly done by one recognized Calabrian Ndrangheta family marrying another. There could be exceptions like a son of a prominent Ndrangheta family marrying a non Calabrian. The off spring son will be eligible to join. Then there is the example of the Colombian marriage, which I mentioned in the previous post, which is purposely done to strengthen family business. I could see the daughter of an Albanian mafia boss marrying the son of a prominent Ndrangheta family and their male off springs can join as well. Some of the examples I gave you are exceptions. These examples I gave you would surely need approval from the higher ranks.
