prendere una scorciatoia

to take a shortcut

معنی

To take a faster route.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

In ancient Italian cities like Venice or Rome, 'scorciatoie' are often narrow alleys (calli or vicoli) that only locals know. Tourists often get lost trying to find them. There is a strong cultural emphasis on 'lo studio matto e disperatissimo' (intense study). Taking shortcuts in school is often seen as a lack of character. Italian drivers are famous for finding creative ways to bypass traffic. A 'scorciatoia' is often a point of pride for a driver. In Italian business, while efficiency is valued, 'prendere una scorciatoia' can sometimes imply 'fare le cose alla carlona' (doing things sloppily).
