Ciao

Something an Italian would say to an Italian, or that a non Italian would say to an Italian, or that an Italian would say to a non Italian, but not something a non Italian would say to another non Italian.
Frank- Ciao.
Richie- You might have spent a lot of time with the Italians Frank, but they're not your people, neither are the micks. Saying Ciao to me isn't progress, I'm wondering why you're talking like that, and if I'm going to have to start talking weird to be speaking your language too.
