How much Slavic ancestry do Italians have?

[Windischer]

the whole assumption that venedi are west slavs, anti east slavs and slavini south slavs is incorrect. laughable, actually: out of three existing regional slavic proper groups - slovenes, slovaks, slovjaks - two speak languages of west-slavic character (slovjak - typical west-slavic, slovak - west-slavic with southern elements) and the third, slovenes, are a language group by themselves (south-slavic with west-slavic elements).

Triest is a perfect mix of Italian and slavic. If you want to know how they look and which habits they have--> they are tall, slender, with the same facial expression of a person meditating the suicide, wear long dark coats and walk mostly alone and apparently with no destination; they have usually light eyes and brown or blondish hair, they do breakfast with brandy and sneak with champagne, arriving to the end of the day punctually drunken, but strangely they are the oldest city of Italy, apparently elders don't want to die before they are 98.5 years old. Old ladies in particular have energy and will of alcool even after the 100. That city could be the proof that alcool doesn't really kill you, but just your husband.

I liked that city very much and I integrated perfectly. I have been drunken like 300 days on 365.

Almost none.

There is a big misunderstanding, because Ancient Veneti weren't Slavs

[cocoNN]

Almost zero. Slovenes themselves have little Slavic ancestry...

What kind of ancestry do they(Slovenes) have?

[LightHouse89]

none.... Italians are not eastern europeans at all.

what does it matter if everything is a social construct anyway?
