Fun facts — Neapolitan

  • The phrase ‘see Naples and die' ("vedi Napoli e poi muori" - Goethe) means that the city is so beautiful that, once you’ve seen it, there’s no reason to go on living.
  • The name Napoli originates from the Greek word 'Neapolis' or 'new city'. Naples was founded by the Ancient Greeks in the 2nd century BC.
  • According to linguists, the Neapolitan dialect has had a huge impact on the Italian spoken in the US because historically some 80% of Italian immigrants came from Southern Italy.
