Venetian vs Portuguese, Romanian and French.
I was catching a lot of this and I have only a low-level passive knowledge of ordinary Italian (plus some Spanish now). Usually the French person in these suffers compared to the other romance language speakers, but this time there is more overlap. Everyone is enunciating for clarity, but it's fun trying to guess the words and the Venetian speaker didn't over-complicate things.

Pedantry is properly the over-rating of any kind of knowledge we pretend to.

I love this channel, and the concept. I usually pester my French fiancée to see what she can gather despite her lack of Italian. I look forward to other examples of regional Italian languages.
