what is mario saying in super mario

Marios famous catchphrase is "Its-a me, Mario!". This phrase has become iconic and is recognized worldwide. In some games, Mario also says "Lets-a go!" or "Here we go!" when starting a level. However, a recent viral TikTok video claimed that Mario is actually saying "Itsumi Mario" in Japanese, which roughly translates to "Super Mario". This claim is false, as "itsumi" is not a real Japanese word. Therefore, Marios famous catchphrase remains "Its-a me, Mario!"
