Expresso Correcto



also in Rome before we got on the cruise Danielle and Marina took us out to the markets and as usual when we arrived we had a coffee and cornetto at a bar to start our day. Danielle ask if I would like a Expresso? and me thinking that if you add an "O" to a word it sounded more Italian so I said correct"O". He looked at me and said really it only 9am, after many laughs it turns out that correcto is a word! I'm so Italian with out even knowing it.
It means to correct the Expresso i:e to add liquor like a grappa or a spirit, so be carful what you say! Mind you I did have my expresso corrected once or twice at night!
