As long as you're asking for it... In English, the name of languages is written with a capital letter. In other languages, such as Norwegian, only countries is written with a capital letter while languages are not. So in Norwegian it would be "Norway/norwegian", while in English it's "Norway/Norwegian". So in your last post it would be "Italian", while your signature should say "English" ;)

I've been called a grammar nazi many times, but I don't normally care about small errors (even though I spot most of them) because they're often just slip ups. Every now and again though it's a great way to give people a slap if needed. I couldn't help myself correcting one of the Leatherman employees on Facebook when he/she wrote "your" instead of "you're" because the people that run that page is seriously pissing me off with their complete lack of customer support skills.

Thank you again :)
In Italy it's Italia/italiano... but with many gray zones. "Italiano" is used as a name and as an adjective (il popolo italiano - the italian people / l'italiano parlato - the spoken Italian). As a name, it may or may not be written with a capital letter, according its use -Italian uses capital letters as a form of respect, too: "Vostra Eccellenza" or even "Veniamo a ricordarVi"- . "in italiano" is intended as "in italian language", so...

I hope to have not given you even more work :)
