Cellphone alert signals: An Interpretive Dance Demonstration:
So, little brag, I understood most of that. He said "Suoniamo mi amici, vi faccio ascoltare una bellisima tarantella, tu suona una tarantella? Ma va bene?" I think. Which is "Let's sing, my friends, I'm going to play (literally: I'm going to make you listen to) a very beautiful tarantella, [to bird] you sing a tarantella, okay is that good?" Later I think he says Dai, Roma. "Dai" means "go!" or "do it." I think Roma might be the name of the bird.
Weirdest thing, I was watching Sherlock last night, and they used the word "ta" several times. I've never heard this before, but apparently it's a common British interjection. It means "thank you" or "thanks."
Like when Watson paid for a map, the guy said "Ta" and then when he gave Watson his change Watson said "Ta" back to him.
I watch a lot of British stuff and I've never, ever heard this. I've even seen this Sherlock four times and never noticed it.
