This is compelte wrong

first of all, not only milan but in all of the lombard dialect sciura is a word, and it's for rapresent rich people, it's too ofend the lady, calling sciura equal to calling a old witch 93.35.126.0 (talk) 19:28, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I agree this article is misleading and badly written, possibly by the mentioned influencer herself. Being elderly and from Milan myself, I must however also correct the above comment for being culturally and linguistically wrong.

Sciur and Sciura are proper Lombard words for Mister and Mistress, in their historical meaning. They should be used as in Mr and Mrs Smith - say, Sciur Colombo and Sciura Colombo (Colombo being a very common surname from Milan).

In popular use, for real Milanese people, referring to someone as a "sciur" or a "sciura" is an expression of (only slightly ironic) respect. Traditional Milanese speakers make even stronger use of understatement than the Brits, and it is a pity that recent cultural snobs are corrupting the Milanese language and making improper use of its background culture. 151.13.48.130 (talk) 10:50, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
