Hii deuscì affirmando locuntur, et Oclo meo et Corada mea proferunt blandientes. Horum aliquos a proprio poetando divertisse audivimus, Tomam videlicet et Ugolinum Bucciolam, faventinos. | (3) This is spoken by everybody in Romagna, especially the people of Forlì, whose city, despite being near the edge of the region, none the less seems to be the focal point of the whole province: they say 'deuscì' [God, yes!] when they wish to say 'yes'; and to seduce someone they say 'oclo meo' [My eye] and 'corada mea' [My heart]. I have heard that some of them depart from their native speech in their poetry; these include Tommaso, and Ugolino Bucciòla, both of Faenza. |
