"Emout!". L'Eredità, Giovanni shocks Italy: the answer that costs him an epic blunder | Video

Like every evening, the lights come on in the studio of L'Eredità , the kingdom of Marco Liorni , the space in which the Rai 1 host, night after night, practices his profession: he hosts. And he hosts one of the most followed programs on Italian TV, that of words, their lawyers and the guillotine.

Here we talk about the episode of Wednesday, February 26. The day before, Alessandro had qualified for the last act of the game show: second guillotine and, for him, second failure. No way, the mystery word of the final chain was not guessed, and in short, once again home without a prize.

Alessandro's flop had unleashed social media, X in particular, the elective terrain for all those who comment live on what happens in the studio of L'Eredità. And incidentally, social media had unleashed itself against Liorni, ungenerously, for a very slight inaccuracy in the vote of confidence in Parliament.

So, in the episode of Wednesday 26 February, among the contestants trying their luck is the unfortunate Giovanni. We are in the first phases of the episode, Giovanni must try his hand at the game of words that, letter after letter, are composed. The one who runs out of time after the rival loses. The definition reads: " The chat emoticons ". The word to guess begins, obviously, with "e". And Giovanni, unwary: "Emout!". A mysterious and obviously wrong word. A word that, it goes without saying, has unleashed social media. Shortly after, Giovanni would have guessed the correct answer, "emoji", but so be it, the omelette was done...
