The average education of a Mafia Family member rarely exceeds the fourth grade level. Many have no formal training in English at all. They are assimilated into the life of the Mafia very early, and none ever leave it, barring murder. All ranking members of the Mob must be able to trace their entire family to Italy, and this close tie to their homeland makes their language heavily influenced by Italian. A dope, idiot, useless underling.
Violation is punishable by death.
This Italian that is a functional part of Mobspeak further separates the Mafia from those which are not of the Family. Their specialized language allows Mafia to almost immediately recognize their own, thereby deterring infiltration of their ranks. Here again, Mobspeak reflects the fact that it is and was born out of necessity. As a rule, members of the Mafioso have horrendous grammar. Mainly this is a reflection of their overall lack of any kind of formal education.
