It did happen

Hi guys,

 

I've a question related to the sentence "it did happen".

Today I was listening BBC radio 4 and a woman said something like "it did happen last year..." but I didn't know nothing about that kind of phrase construction. Why not just tell "it happened last year..." since happened is a regular verb in past simple?

 

Thanks in advance!

Please, can somebody help me here? Hi, can somebody tell me if this is ok? I'm translating a web page for a friend of mine who owns a company of bags and I'd like to know if this is OK. I know it has a lot of mistakes but right now I'm not able to see where are those mistakes? Please! Thanks in advance! "Pepito" was born in 2011 at the foot of the “Serra de Tramuntana” in the old village of Alaró, Majorca. The designs and making of the bags are influenced by this old and grey coloured landscape giving shape to a unique, elegant and classic style that results in an authentically special and different product. All the ítems are genuiely made and impregnated by the spirit of the island from the beginning til' the end.

Can somebody help me with this text? Hi everyone, I've tried to write this text for a friend of mine who owns a company of fabrics in Majorca but I'm not pretty sure if is sounds natural or is very forced. Please, can somebody help me to correct this? I'd really appreciated! The essence of the products "Pepito" are based on the use of raw materials: fabrics compounds for cotton and linen as Majorcan Fabrics that are full of rich design in details and assorted colors. The fabrics of natural fibre somehow connect me with the different landscapes of Majorca. They help me to create a link between "Pepito" and the island. In this way I can transmit my feelings and work to the people. It is because of this reason that it is very important the selection of the fabrics, textures and colors. My wish is that the person that acquires a "Pepito"'s product feels through them a physical and emotional sensation and experience that create a link with the island, Somehow like taking with him a slice of Majorca. I`ve tried to create a product line rich in details, textures and simplicity but with an actual touch. All process from dyeing until the finished product is an exhaustive and semi-artisnal work. This is the fundamental base of the Brand, transmit the feeling for the noble materials and the pleasure for an artisan work.
