My name is Fred Oliver, I have been spending a couple weeks in Italy every year now since 2012. My fourth trip is coming up this November. I have been taking Italian classes for two years here in San Diego, California at the Italian Cultural Center. I can now read and understand a little but I don't have the confidence I need to attempt to speak Italian outside of class. So, what I am looking for on Italki is PRACTICE with speaking.

    In your first sentence I would use "together" instead of "up". However, in your second example, "together' is understood so the meaning is exactly the same. I like the second better.

    Thank you all for your answers. It just shows that learning vocabulary and rules of grammer without learning the subtleties of usage only gets you part way to the goal!

    Perché è necessario il 'di' in questo frase, "Lui dice di no", He says no

    Actually, in your case, TomTxxytu would be the best of the three I suggested above. He has many YouTube videos, both for persons learning Italian and for those learning English and he has a great style of teaching.

    "for 14 years" kind of dangles there at the end. I might move it to the front such as: For fourteen years since 1949 he had been the first Chancellor... Another thought; "had been" implies that another event is coming, like "had been UNTIL something else happened. So if that's not the case "was" the first...might be better.
