Rafaele is a very capable student. He should always work at the highest level.

He demonstrated some admirable quick-thinking when engaging with the difficult question of the appropriate moments to use the past simple and present perfect tenses.

Rafaele is a good student who can communicate well in English. He does not always do it accurately in terms of grammar and vocab, and this is his challenge... to cross from B2 to a good C1. Homework please Rafaele!

    Thank you for your point of view and I also think as you, that it wouldn't be the best option for Scotland, not to mention they would lose the national currency that in this European market it plays a major role thanks to its stability.

    I am inquiring to know what both sides think, English and Scottish.

    If it is true what we mentioned above regarding the currency, the stability, the job market and so on, does it mean that we have to rely on economics matter in lieu of a healty national sentiment?

    Scotland indipendency. Yes or not.

    Lately I have been following this debate about the indipendency of Scotland.

    As I am thinking of moving to UK and arguabily to Scotland due to job market in Oil and Gas, I would like to know if it would be a just move by the side of Scottish people or inevitably it will throw them in a bad situation.

    I don't know Actually I do not know what to write tonight although it has been since I wrote here. Despite the fact my leaving to UK is due to arrive, I am somewhat stressed beause of my job, my concern about not to be up to keep on a conversation with a real English... Anyway, let us talk about the bright side, I do not know how, but I managed to put aside all the necessary money to stay abroad for awhile, that is a mistery to me, I cannot help spending bunch a money in the useless things. I am planning to stay two days in London before the course starts, lovely city with its pro and cons, but we all acknowledge it as the European New York. Great expectations it is not just the title of a Dickens' book, it is reflects also what I feel when I have to talk about my future and despite my age I have no intention to turn my dreams into failure. Please correct just the grammar, otherwise I cannnot discern whether I did a grammar mistake or something else. Thanks

    Le mie parole italiane preferite.

    Non è un segreto che sono perdutamente innamorata della lingua italiana. Mi piace tutto, dallo spelling pazzesco con le doppie consonanti , che più di una volta mi ha dato un bel mal di testa, alla pronuncia e anche i diversi tipi di accenti e dialetti. Mi piace imparare nuove parole e l'altro giorno, mentre parlavo con un mio amico italiano, abbiamo fatto una lista delle mie cinque parole italiane preferite. È stato molto difficile perché ne ho ben più di cinque e se volessi elencarle tutte, non finirei mai! Alla fine sono riuscita ad individuare queste: Addirittura, scherzare, comunque, scommettere e sciocco. Mi piace molto la pronuncia di tutte queste parole, sono foneticamente piacevoli ma anche molto divertenti da scrivere. Vorrei anche aggiungere altre due parole che ho imparato questa settimana: scarabocchio e scavezzacollo; queste due sono, senza dubbio, le due parole più fighe che abbia mai visto! :)

     

    Eccellente e perfetta!

    which fits best vs which best fits As you can se from the title, it is a very simple question. I run through this tiny doubt not long ago, I wrote a sentence which was corrected right away into "which best fits".but now, reading my textbook, I have read "which fits best" What is the right position? Thanks in advance.

    Ho la mia prima lezione di Italiano venerdì. Sono un po' nervoso perché Mi sento che il mio italiano non è buono e non voglio sembrare stupido. Questo è la ragione per cui che non ho mai avuto una lezione. Ma il professore sembra gentile e sono eccitato per l'esperienza. Spero che io parti di iniziare la lezione con sicurezza.

    Fa freddissimo qui a Billings. Ci sono -28 gradi celsius con il vento. Questa temperatura non è il massimo divertente quando si lavora fuori.

    Dovrei dormire adesso. Buona notte italki.

    Needs correcting :)

    mi ritengo un ragazza nella media. Sono bassa di statura, circa 5'4''. Ho gli occhi blu, i capelli biondi che è mossi, e sono sorridente. Di solito sono allegra ma divento ansiosa molto facilmente. Sono un po' sfacciata e puerile ma solo perchè sono giovane e amo ridere. Qualche volta sono pigra ma penso che non fare niente sia noioso. Mi piace molto lo sport e faccio esercizio ogni giorno (la maggior parte del tempo...). Mi piace passare il tempo con i miei amiche le mie amiche/i miei amici in città o semplicemente a casa. Sono abbastanza intelligente - io studio tedesco, italiano, inglese, chimica, matematica e filosofia a scuola. Ho studiato tedesco per tre anni e sono andata in Germania per uno scambio scolatico, quindi conosco un po' meglio il tedesco. Studio italiano da un anno e è qualche volta è molto impegnativo.

    Let's start again So here I am. In awhile Winter will come to a close to make room for the Spring, just two months left and we will be able to see the magnificent of nature with his marvelous colours. To say the truth, I can't wait to be catapulted into a new season and make new experiences, new encounters. The most amazing thing, that for someone could be not so interesting, is that finally by that time I will be studying in Cambridge and I am looking forward to having a look to the city, the different architecture and being sourranded by a fresh English sound for my ears. Throughout this time, I will definitely have to improve my skill to make myself clear and in the meantime to pick up the language as much as I can. At times, just change your habits for awhile bring you a new inspiration for your life, new motivations that were hidden in you.

    Just another piece of writing This time I am not going to grasp a dictionary, browsing insanely its pages to pick up the word which fits best to put togheter my thoughs, my feelings and try to make you astonished. No, I won't for sure. This word will flow out without any trick on its way as if It were written straighaway by the heart, although I am neither a writer nor my heart owns hands suitable for the purpouse but, nevertheless, I will make a go of it. Here it's awfully cold! I believed to be ready for facing the winter but likely I was wrong. Not to mention the broken heating which starts every once in a while, this situation make me feel like Scrooge in Dicken's tale and it is somewhat absurd since Christmast is coming. The amusing thing is that I have had turn the cookers on and the flames have been warming up for just about 15 minutes making the flat more comfortable and cozy. I hope the technician comes as soon as possible, because I find hard living in such a frozen place. I would have never imagined that outside was warmer than here, of all things! Thanks in advance for reading this silly story but I know you will be somewhat helpful . Ciao

    Congiuntivo italiano inglese Ciao a tutti, ho qualche problema a capire quando usare il congiuntivo in inglese partendo da una frase in italiano. Esempio riguardo al congiuntivo presente: Voglio che tu SIA qui -> I want you TO BE here - NON -> I want you ARE here The teacher insists that her students BE on time - NON -> ARE on time Spero tu stia bene -> I hope you ARE well - NON -> you BE - TO BE Quindi tutte tradotte in italiano nel congiuntivo presente ma tre forme diverse, qualcuno può darmi delucidazioni? grazie
