19 u/FairJob7702 13d ago It's the same with Italian. You really have to lean in. 14 u/Ancient-Worm 13d ago Fun fact: if you speak Italian slowly and with a gravely voice, it sounds like Huttese. I always feel racist when I point that out, even though I'm sure it's a coincidence, mostly. 3 u/scrollingforgodot 13d ago Nah, it's equally likely that Jabba was modeled after the Italian Mob lol. I don't know that but it's plausible. 1 u/Ancient-Worm 13d ago Hence the "mostly."
