Mob Wives: Bensonhurst Italian Spelling Bee

Judges: Lorraine Bracco and Tony Sirico (Sopranos)

This hilarious video was posted on Funny or Die and boy is it funny! I don't know how many times I watched it before I could compose myself long enough to blog it for you. Italians will especially appreciate the humor because we have lived it! I will give you a few choice Italian words that you may want to learn before Mob Wives Chicago airs because Leah DeSimone loves to sprinkle them into her conversation! Here are some popular expressions...


Fuhgeddaboutit! = Forget about it!

A fa Nabila! = Go to Naples (literally) Go to hell!

Agita = Heartburn, indigestion

Cafone = idiot, lazy good-for-nothing

Malocchio = evil eye, Italian curse

Pazzo = crazy

Stoo nod = stupid

Sta ta zee = shut up
