Butchering of a global brand name of the day: hoha-hola = coca cola

So in Florence, the residents have a bit of an accent.  They have trouble, or maybe they just don't care to, say their c's.  So in Florence, Coca-Cola becomes Hoha-Hola.  So even though Italy is a small country (by size) compared to the US, they still have tons of regional accents.  And, each region has their own accent and their own slang as well.  I dont' know if Giuditta was just trying to make me feel better, but she was saying that she doesn't always understand what others are saying as well.  While in Genoa, we met this guy from southern Italy.  He spoke with a southern (Italian) accent, and had his own slang as well, which MNG couldn't always understand (or at least that's what she told me).  MNG said that Genovesians have a certain cadence to the way they talk.  When they speak Italian they slow down and speed up in a certain way.  I of course did not pick up on it until she told me, but it reminded me of T. Shreve, which is always a fun bit of memories.
