Living dangerously there, Appolonia was from a village in the hills around Corleone, Sicily, Sicilian was probably spoken there.
Most Italians find full blown Sicilian incredibly hard to understand, so if the GF’s father was from Torino or Milano he wouldn’t have had much chance of understanding.
Haha fantastically close. And yes they have their own dialect up here.
Italy is funny it's like the UK but upside down north is posh South is poor.
