Neapolitan[edit]
Etymology[edit]
Literally “see Naples and then die”. Compare Italian vedi Napoli e poi muori.
Though of unknown origin and authorship, it is likely to have been coined in the city itself when the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies (of which Naples was the capital) was at its golden age, that is, during the kingdom of Bourbons.
Pronunciation[edit]
Proverb[edit]
- see Naples and die (nothing compares to the beauty of Naples, so you can die after you've seen it)
