20 Italian Hand Gestures Explained

Italians have made expressing themselves through hand gestures into an art form, with dozens of different gestures in their arsenal for every kind of occasion.

There’s the angry variety, the gestures used to woo the opposite sex, and the rapid hand movements that look angry but are meant to convey that the gesturer is overjoyed.

If you're looking to add some nonverbal communication skills to your social repertoire you should take a look at this video by Dolce & Gabbana featuring male models demonstrating the fine art of Italian hand gestures. It'll help you set your hands, and your emotions, free!

Secret Whataburger menu: Tell the cashier to hold the mustard, because they put so much mustard on that it's overpowering. Next she'll ask if you want mayonnaise instead. Yes, mayonnaise is fine. Also grill the onions. And add a slice of cheese. Then substitute a bottle of orange juice for the high fructose sodas (it's the same price). Finally, when they bring it out, get the spicy ketchup.
