Itanglese, which is also known as Anglitaliano or (in the United Kingdom) Britalian, refers to multiple hybrid types of language based on Italian and English.

There are numerous portmanteau terms that have been used to describe and label this phenomenon, the earliest of which is Itanglish, first documented in 1973. Other forms include Italglish (from 1985), Itaglish (1986), Itlish (1993), Itinglish (1997), Italish (1988), Italgish (2000) and Italianglish (2011).[1]
