Profile
Hello! I am a native English speaker and live in the United States. I love travel, and am fascinated with world languages — So I'm determined to learn one... or two... or ten :) Having visited Rome and Catania earlier this year, I've taken interest in learning Italian. So here we go!

LESSON ELEVEN
Good evening,
I'm doing my English exercise. Last week I worked a lot of , so I didn't study.
Saturday I attended a refresher course in judo and Sunday I began a personal trainer course.
Italy's football team (OR "The Italian football team...") won against Macedonia in the World cup qualifiers. I'm I was very happy because my favorite player has scored. His name is Andrea Belotti, and is nicknamed is "the rooster".
Now I am tired. After I finish to watching TV, after I will go to sleep.

(The owner throws a stick and the dog "fetches" it). So it is not necessarily a word you'd want to use when directed at another person — unless with friends in a very informal, joking sort of way. OR could be something a King or Queen would say to his/her servants. Along those lines :)0 votedFebruary 10, 20150
- The more correct sounding to me would be: "How much do you weigh?" Or "What is your weight" "Weight" is a noun, whereas "weigh" is a verb, (I believe (?)$. So you would phrase the questions differently. Although I think most English speakers would completely understand and not question your original sentence.0 votedJanuary 24, 20150
- Yes, they are different. The first is implying the possibility of a present condition ("could be") and the second is implying the possibility of a past condition ("could have been"). Example: "Why does that woman look so confused? She could be lost." (notice that "does" is present tense) VS "Why did that woman look so confused? She could have been lost." (notice that "did" is past tense) Hope that helps!0 votedJanuary 23, 20151
- Both sentences are correct in themselves, but have different meanings. "technology" would mean some sort of advanced tool or piece of equipment. "technique" is more about a particular skill or method used. For example: Someone could have the most advanced technology, but still lack the technique to use it correctly.0 votedNovember 2, 20140
