I am probably at a level A2? I have traveled often to Napoli in the last 5 years. I think I will return forever. I study diligently alone. My Napolitani friends prefer to speak and improve their English. When I travel south of Napoli is generally the only opportunity I have to practice la bella lingua. I desire to be at a level B2. I desire to absorb more Italian culture directly and always with a small kiss or inflection of Napolitano so others know where is my home away from home.

    Grazie mille per il vostro aiuto. Tuttavia, credo che l'interpretazione rimanga una domanda in questo esempio, - per me . Forse non capirò mai, ma mi hai aiutato a capire le differenze.

    Un mazzo enorme I am in the middle watching my Italian fiancee and his Italian sister in an argument. I said. " e Vito è fuori prima della chiusura delle porte in Italia!😁". She responded "Un mazzo enorme!" My fiancee said she wrote something disgusting because she is angry at him for leaving Italy. She explained, "no. It means great fortune!" I cannot find the translation examples. I would like to understand the different interpretations. I am trying to find the peace in the family. They both tell me different translation.

    A Letter to My Boss

    Dear Mr. Becerra
    I'm writing because I've decided to leave my job on  in December (I think it is appropriate to go ahead and give exact date here - at the beginning). This was a difficult decision because I love my job and to work with you  working for you  - more formal or working with you  but I have personal projects and fortunately, I'm on right way I continue to grow in a positive direction.

    My reason for leaving is that I applied for a scholarship to study my master's degree abroad and I got the scholarship. As you know, I want to specialize me about with human rights and social project, and also I learn about strategies of development that in the future I would like to apply in my country. I'll initially travel on in January because my advanced study is going to start that month and It lasts two years.

    November will be my last month, Obviously, I commit with you to close all the projects at my area and I'll search the best professional as my substitution and then I’m going teach to the new person the activities and responsibilities of my areas. I’ll definitely communicate with all our donors and I’ll give them the news. Don’t worry about this.

    I'm very grateful with his association because this job gave me many learnings  new competencies and I feel that I've improved such greatly  as professional. Skills that I Iearned  learned here like leadership, commitment and responsibility will absolutely be important to me in the future.

    Yours sincerely,

    I honestly do not know. It is written as if indeed it is an interjection, but that would imply modern, informal dialogue. Almost slang. I'm not a linguist but I think 'man' as an interjection didn't arrive until the 1970s?

    "today my client asked me a question yet the answer was so obvious. I found it odd." (sub context = was he really wanting to know something else or is he mentally challenged?" "It is strange that she didn't call me back" ( sub context = I wonder if something happened to her? Is anything wrong?) "I saw a bat eating another bat. It was really weird!" (sub context = bats have dark stereo types in lots of cultural references. and they are NOT supposed to be carnivorous. What's up with that?!) - I agree with what Edward says above. Here are some examples where I used these words in last couple of days.

    OH! Is this perhaps a regional expression? '40 primavere' or a more antiquated term? Curious that no one else recognized this paraphrased expression. So glad you chimed in. THANKS! (My friend fascinates me more and more so I keep diving into these cultural mysteries)

    You make a very interesting point A?P about the Native Americans. And it is poignant to me. I marked this question in relating to CULTURE though. So I do believe it is appropriate. :)
