We spent a few days in Bozen a year or two ago, and I don't recall
hearing much, if any, Italian spoken. In the hotels, museums, restaurants, shops and market I recall it to be almost exclusively German. Actually more like the German I heard a few months ago in Austria rather than, say, Schweitzerdeutsch. An hour or two south in Verona, German seemed to be almost unknown. -- wf.

Ortsei Ortisei, Bolzano (Bozen in German) best, Jiminy Bozen/Bolzano is predominantly Italian-speaking. It's right on the language border. North and east of it it's mostly German, south and west it's mostly Italian. -- Tim C. |

I had fish and chips served in a newspaper in Belfast in 1999. I was
with a French women. We were not impressed. That said, I can understand the longing. During my 10 months in Europe I would have killed for a taco and a Molsen Dry. During my two years in Toronto, I never saw a fish and chip place. I moved to Oshawa (40 km away) and counted 20. I suspect it is the same with London and England. The cosmopolitan crowd doesn't go for it whereas in low immigration places it is still part of the local fabric. Sam |
