### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The first time I've ever seen my family's dialect in writing
*by S***M on August 13, 2022*

I'm not young. I'm far from my lineage's first generation of Americani. I have never seen language written the way my grandparents pronounced it. I thought it was a pidgin of Italian based on the stories my grandmother told me about miscommunication with her Italian mother-in-law.Honestly I haven't read through it yet, I'm just so emotionally overwhelmed to have it that even a few minutes flipping through now and then makes me very happy. As a polyglot I'm thrilled to finally have access to my family's native language, the language I learned first alongside English but was never formally taught. The adults never taught us children because they didn't want us to understand what they were talking about.Beautifully done. Much gratitude. This was clearly a labour of love and I'm feeling that love every time I crack it open.Get it. It's worth the possibility of unlocking your heritage and seeing what you thought you heard all those years ago, validated.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sicilian Dictionary and Phrasebook
*by J***O on May 8, 2011*

Dear PhD. Privitera,Bon Giornu,Thank you for creating such a sparkling, succinct book. I've just completed my first novel, La Luna Ciucculata'-(On Amazon.com) using the Italian speak instead of Sicilian and truly cite your dictionary in the novel. You might enjoy it the novel. It's a sicilian boy's coming of age story. One thing I found refreshingin your work was your search for your mother's surname.I have two basic surnames: My birth name was ZOTTOLO, stemming from Mazzara, Anello Sicily...the Arabic side. My grandfather was Marco Zottolo, My Grandmother was a Giacalone. my second surname was BOMPENSIERO, stemming from the Bompensiero's, Buonpensiero's and Buompensiero's and TAGLIAVIA'S of Porticello, Sicily fame. I sure would like any input as to their origin, if you would be so kind. PS. My next novel is titled The NIPUTI. PLEASE CONTACT Me THROUGH Amazon.com or my email <joebo1@consolidated.net>Thank yo and please contact me at:Giuseppi Salvatore Bonpensierojoebo1@consolidated.net
