👉 Inglesina refers to a type of English language where words are often rephrased, altered, or removed. This is similar to the Italian translation process where new words or phrases are added into existing ones.
Here's a brief overview:
- Inglesina comes from the Italian word "ingleso," which means "English" but also "new." It originated in the 19th century when Italian scholars began translating works of Western literature and philosophy, focusing on their new interpretations.
- In English, "Inglesina" could mean either a style where words are rephrased or a phrase that is altered to fit modern sensibilities. For instance, "the English way," which means the idea of speaking English as if it were a native tongue, is an Inglesina.
The word's exact definition can vary based on cultural and linguistic context, but its general meaning is often associated with adapting existing words or phrases into something new that sounds familiar yet maintains some unique characteristics.
