Topic: The thing about real Italian pizza in Italy
Anonymous A started this discussion 3 years ago #109,056
The bread is the main feature, and the toppings just complement it. In the US, the bread is thin, soggy, and flavorless, and the toppings are piled on as the main feature, inches thick.

Maybe you should try eating at an actually good pizzeria in America.

There are some good ones, but the pizzas in Italy are categorically better. Americans like the toppings, while Italians like the bread.

Then your Chinese must be really good. Please reply to this in Chinese, demonstrating the truth of your claims. I can read Chinese just fine.

Demonstrate your knowledge of French first, then I will engage. I did a PhD in French with a focus on witchcraft, so I will easily verify or deny your claims of knowledge.

This correct. A true Italian pizza is really only topped with sauce and some cheese. Both are used to compliment the flavor of the pie shell.

> as usual
Who do you think I am? Go on, say it.
By the way, it's "让我们用中文说话", not "我们用中文聊天吧". Get that PhD, then we'll talk.

You need take Chinese 101. You are making beginner mistakes that only an American English speaker would. You're making a fool of yourself.

It's not grammatically incorrect, it's just not how native speakers would normally say it.
"Let's use our tongues to speak the English language."
It sounds just as awkward as that.

The only good pizza is the one with pineapple on it.
