You don't need to feel it.
It's me who must be ashamed for I can never follow to the topic. My thoughts don't get along with any topic. I wonder if it Is a kind of mental disfuntion?

I have the same problem. Probably we are different people but not necessarily with mental dysfunction

Not all questions have an answer!
PS: Make a fool of other people is like to use drugs or alcohol. Don't let you feel better.
Today you taught me 2 new words. Thanks.

Simple questions mostly imply simple answers, don't they, Elisa? Someone may will or not will answer them, but it's another question.
I'd just want to know, are you Elisa the singer, or that is another Elisa. You gave the link on 'Ideas and opinions', just before Christmas
As to making fools of others, it's not true. I mean that I never do it. Of couse, I can play fool, but for God's sake, it never imply to offend anyone!

Which words did I teach you? Isn't it you who is used to permanently teasing me?

Re: SOME NEWSPAPERS REALLY SHOW THE REALITY?
Answer to your question: This could be a symptom of borderline personality .
I cannot speak for you but I don’t get along, or better, I don't take part in the topics because I don’t need or feel the want to do it.Anyway I like reading the posts because it’s a good exercise to make my everyday 15 minutes of English. I am very happy when I find a new song or a story because I learn many new words and I improve my general knowledge EC is very relaxing for me. It is like reading the newspapers I find at the hairdresser.
I give a link when I find something I consider new, different or useful for other EC learners. Elisa’s (not me) songs are very simple and she sings in a good, simple English (I think) . I have discovered this singer only some months ago and I love her.
We have only one life and we have to use all the stratagems to make it easier and beautiful.

Hello Elisa,
recently I watched the video you had recommended to someone, ITALIAN IN 10 MINUTES - BEST COMPLETE GESTURE'S LESSON - by CARLO AURUCCI (I couldn't remember which thread I found your link at, but it doesn't matter)
That was a real pleasure! While watching that exellent little show, I tried to copy and memorize everything. Alas, my mind isn't well-organised, so I'll hardly be able to remember all, after a while.
Now, people look strange at me, when I try to help with my hands while speaking
And now I am lost in thoughts: why Italian gestures look so exact and understandable, and the ones we use in Russia - vague and polysemantic?
Do you know why?
Andrew
p.s. I just tried to attach 'La tarantella.mp3', my composition, but it looks like it's not possible. Pity.

Re: SOME NEWSPAPERS REALLY SHOW THE REALITY?
I cannot answer to you well... it was a joke:)
I come from the North of Italy and people here is totally different in character. Unfortunately we are not so fatalist and open.
I think that weather and, as Carlo said,their history are the responsible of their way of doing.
If your gestures look so vague and polysemantic it is probably because you use only the hands. They use all their body and, above all, eyes and mouth...so funny!
The same is for music. I love it because is joyous or tragic. They don't know "gray" (stereotype). Tarantella is a South Italian country dance (XVII century). We never listen to it but I think is OK.

Re: SOME NEWSPAPERS REALLY SHOW THE REALITY?
the newspapers aim is to earn profit nothing else so they dont care about the realityArnauEstanyol wrote: ↑Wed Feb 02, 2011 10:59 am In today's edition of Financial Times appears a news relative to Catalan's debt:
Headline: "CATALAN CREDIT CRUNCH THREATENS TO UNDERMINE SPAIN'S EFFORT"
It's true that Catalonia has a credit debt of 10.000 million Euro. But this is not the completely reality. Catalonia is submitted by Spain to a fiscal deficit of 22.000 millions Euro per year. A really shame that is unmatched in any country in the world. With these money that takes off from Catalonia, Spain constructs big airports and wide freeways where you can make a camping because the freeways are used by three cars per hour... Yes, airports like Ciudad Real's airport (the city has 70000 inhabitants) with one four kilometres long airstrip, a facilities with capacity for two million passengers / year and a cost of 1100 millions Euro that is used by three aircraft per week of a company with deficit and subsidized by the State.
The reality is that Spain don't be able to manage the money that STOLE from Catalonia. And you know: the money you has earned with your effort don't has the same valour than the money you has easily won.
Why some newspapers don't show all reality. Only a part and no the whole reality?
Do you agree? what's your opinion?
