I've been studying Italian for more than 5 years with a tutor, but still have a fear of making mistakes in conversation. To get over this, I really need to practice with more people.

    Hi Maria,


    ¿with him in the distance?

    I like a boy that i knew know from in the University. We have been dating but he is an exchange student from  another country and he is of exchange, so I Just i will just see him for this semester.
    I believe that we are fond of each other, and but I  am scared because i don't know if he go to will remember me after he leaves.
    What do you think?
    Should I go visit him or better i hope that the destiny returns us to each other.


    Please correct me.


    1. Always capitalize the first word in a sentence, and the word "I" is always capitalized.

    2. As for your situation, enjoy the time you have with each other now and see how the relationship is when it's time for him to leave. If things are good and he doesn't live too far away, talk about visiting him and see how he reacts. If you both agree to try to continue the relationship go for it! I'm a firm believer in taking charge of your own destiny.

    Good luck!

    Hi! Watching American television is a great way to learn the language. I recently met a girl in Uruguay who spoke English wonderfully and she said it was just from watching American television (including 'Friends')!

It is the only creature on the Earth who that is always happy to see you - at any day of the week, at any hour, even at night. It always forgives you for your rudeness, your silence or nudges (I'm not sure what you mean here, but a nudge is a gentle prod or light touch). It's naive innocent and sometimes you are surprised by how much it trusts you.
    Sometimes you watch in look into its big devoted eyes and can't understand what does it needs. "What do you want?" you ask.  I wish my dog would be were able to speak.
    In general, having a dog brings  great happiness but also great responsibility.

During this first trip there For the first we have been we stayed in Havana, the capital city, for three days. It is a very beautiful city, full of activities to do and things to see. During this first days we We walked a lot during these three days in order to visit the most attractions possible. Then we have gone went to Vinales, this a little city is located into in a valley in which is used to farm the tobacco. We have visited the valley by horse and it was a very particular unique and beautiful experience. While we were riding into the valley with our guide, there was a storm and so the guide brought us under a little roof awning (?) in order to avoid the rain, but we was already completely wet and the place was too small for us all. Nearby this place there was the house of a farmer and him who invited all of us into his house even though we was were dirty and wet. but for him there wasn't any problem, He offered us a cigars and we stayed with him all the afternoon. This was a very beautiful moment experience. The next stop of the trip was to Cienfuegos, this is a very little small city and even here we have found with many beautiful people. We stayed in a shared house ("casa particular" in Spanish and very common in Cuba) and we have We fell in love with the lady of the house, whom we called her Grandmother, and we cried when we left.

    Sometimes you add the "did" for emphasis. If someone says, "That could never happen" you might answer, "It did happen last year!" (With the stress on "did") Saying "It happened last year" has the same meaning, but is a more straightforward statement of fact.

    You can say either "They said that they will go fishing tomorrow." Or "They said that they are going fishing tomorrow." But you don't use the word "a" after "going".

    In the most simplistic explanation:

     

    Should (past of shall) implies the obligation or duty to do something - I should study, but I don't feel like it. 

    Would (past of will) I told him I would be away for a few days.

    Would also can express the conditional mood, indicating the consequence of a possible situation.  I would buy that car, but I don't have enough money. Or: I would help you if I had the time.

    Could (past of can) expresses possibility - You could do that if you tried. Or: Could you help me?

    Could and would can get confusing because they seem interchangeable at times, but the meaning of the sentence is different. For example, Could you help me? implies "Are you able to help me? whereas Would you help me? implies "Are you willing to help me?" An answer may be: "I would if I could." which means "I am not able to help you because I do not have the ability or means to do so.
