We've said it a thousand times: Sardinia is a universe apart. Wonderful, lying at the center of the Mediterranean, inhabited by people who can give everything without expecting anything in return, but that can be very proud and even offended when they feel a lack of respect towards them. This is why we have decided to publish a short handbook - clearly very ironic - especially for the consumption of the "Continental" on 10 Things to do in Sardinia.
1 - DO NOT START OR FINISHED WITH EACH STATEMENT AJO '
This first rule is very important. Try to remember that YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW TO SPEAK THE SARDINIA and say "Ajo" does not mean being able to speak Sardinian. We assure you that say it all the time does not make you seem more sympathetic to our eyes, but often we seem real morons. So, if you really can not do without, ditevelo among you, but not in a Sardinian urlatelo. OK?
2 - NEVER REFUSE TO DRINK IN SARDINIA
This rule is especially true in the Nuoro and Barbagia. If they offer you a drink NEVER EVER have to say no, it would be an offense. So drink, and if they continue to offer you a drink, drink again. A myrtle? Unu fil'e ferru? A good wine? It is important to continue drinking. So we are all happy and make friends before.
3 - DO NOT EVER SAY THAT THE SARDINIA AND 'WONDERFUL AND DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY' TO BE A LOT OF SARDI off the island
You could really get insults to no end for a sentence like that. Ok, often you come from the city gray and cold, I love it Sardinia, but we assure you that this is not really the best way to make that clear to the Sardinians. Above all, do not offend your (and our) intelligence with a sentence like that. We understood each other, right? ;)
4 - I DO NOT Saccenti WITH SARDI
A word of advice? Never do it-alls with the Sardinians. We are a nation of educated people, we read a lot (it will be because we live on an island and we like to get away?), We also do a lot. So do not think of doing the talk "maestrini" because the Sardinians - even those that at first sight seem to be "ignorant goats" - may respond to tone and make you instantly silenced.
5 - DO NOT EVER SAY THAT ICHNUSA NOT 'GOOD BEER
If you value your pellaccia not you dare ever say that beer Ichnusa is not one of the best beers you've ever drank. Tap the Ichnusa in a Sardinian is a bit 'as to offend his parents. So even if you find it dull, light or just acceptable, God forbid not to say so out loud. You could incur the wrath of the Sardinians fatal, young and old are all united in defending the Quattro Mori's most beloved ... that belongs to a foreign company and that of the Sardinian now has only name that's another story.
6 - DO NOT EVER SAY THAT LIKE A LITTLE SNACK
If you coming from the sea snack is put in the belly something light (or at most a sandwich), well, you are aware that in Sardinia the meaning is not that. The snack in our Island could turn into a super lunch that has nothing to envy to the best weddings. Never say to a Sardinian you want a snack, you might have to spend the next two hours to eat as if there was no tomorrow.
7 - DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CROSS A HERD
If you happen to be in the car and a flock of sheep crossing the road, you should not groped even begin to try to pass in the middle to a crawl, even if the sheep seem to never end. The shepherds usually do not like this behavior and you could apostrofare with cute epithets nostrani (including the lighter would be "On cunn'e rua mom").
8 - DO NOT CHALLENGE EVER TO DO SOMETHING A Sardo (SURPRISED YOU COULD REMAIN)
We are a people Sardinian definitely proud. Challenging a true Sardinian to do something - often dangerous - is already a challenge accepted. We are like that, a nation of stubborn people (even envious at times), which bears badly someone to tell him that he can not do a thing. The consequences of these challenges and could also be comic (or tragicomic) ...
9 - DO NOT TAKE TOO SERIOUSLY WHAT IT SAYS A Sardo
This article was ironic of course. The irony in Sardinia is inherent in the DNA of its inhabitants. When a Sardinian tells you something, even if it seems serious (and sometimes almost hostile), there is often only taking ironically around. Ergo, do not take it too seriously, maybe you answer tone - this is a true Sardinian appreciate !! - But please do not be offended! A smile and a nice drink will solve everything.
Villasimius Beach riso10 - do not bind TOO MUCH TO SARDINIA AND SARDI
This is the most important advice. We say to you, believe it. Do not bind to Sardinia, not affezionatevi to the Sardinians, do not let your heart on our beaches or in our sea. It could really become an incurable disease. Because when Sardinia and its inhabitants will not let you go inside then go away anymore. And you can not help it, it's already too late ... you can no longer do without this Island.
