interjectionVulgarRome

A Italian slang term. Browse all Italian slang.

What it means

  1. So what; who cares. Roman, vulgar, and widely misused outside Rome — it expresses indifference, not admiration, and Romans will tell you so.

Examples with translations

  • —Ha comprato una macchina nuova. —Sticazzi.

    'He's bought a new car.' 'So what.'

  • Sticazzi, che problema c'è?

    Who cares, what's the problem?

Where it comes from

Contracted from questi cazzi. Non-Romans frequently use it to mean 'wow, amazing', which is wrong; the correct word for that is the near-identical mecojoni.
