Quindi: sarebbe facile o diventerebbe veramente complicato avere una relazione con una persona che parla una lingua diversa dalla nostra?
Potrebbe essere difficile litigare?
Diventerebbe complicato spiegarsi meglio?
Ho colto l’occasione…. Oppure potrei dire che “ho preso spunto” da una lezione con Lisa che, come avrete capito, è tedesca e che ha una relazione con un uomo danese, il quale vive in Italia.
Lei ha detto che loro comunicano in inglese, perché il loro livello linguistico è molto alto.
Ma secondo me non è solo un fatto di comunicazione. Subentrerebbe la cultura, intesa come abitudini mentali: quello che è normale per me, non è normale per qualcun altro.
E poi c’è la questione della personalità, come dicevamo nell’intervista: siamo davvero noi stessi quando parliamo un’altra lingua?
Nei miei anni di insegnamento ho avuto molti studenti che volevano imparare l’italiano proprio perché il loro partner è italiano. 
Che gesto d’amore immenso. Imparare la lingua dell’altro per capirlo meglio!
Un antico proverbio italiano dice “moglie e buoi dei paesi tuoi”. Ma in un mondo così fluido, ha ancora senso un proverbio così?
Perché c’entra anche la questione scientifica che parlare una lingua straniera, o più idiomi, sembrerebbe aiutarci a vedere il mondo con occhi diversi. È una questione scientifica non ancora risolta.
Allora ve lo chiedo direttamente: parlare italiano vi fa vedere il mondo da un’altra prospettiva?
Sarebbe possibile per voi avere una relazione con una persona che parla un’altra lingua?
Anche una relazione di amicizia…. Sareste un vero amico – o una vera amica?

A passenger was arrested at an Australian airport after he left a parked airplane through an emergency exit, walked along a wing, and then climbed down a jet engine to the ground.

Jetstar Flight JQ507 arrived at Melbourne Airport from Sydney on August 22. It was parked at a terminal gate when the man left the plane by the right-side exit, officials said.

Opening the exit deployed a slide from the back of the wing to the ground, a Jetstar statement said. But instead of going down the slide, the man walked along the wing and climbed down one of the Airbus A320's two engines.

Passenger Audrey Varghese said passengers screamed as the man started behaving erratically shortly before he opened the door.

She told Melbourne radio 3AW that as soon as the plane had started coming to a stop, the passenger went straight to the emergency exit row, pushing people out of the way, and opened the emergency door.

Another passenger told 9News that the man had been vaping — which is not allowed — during the 90-minute mid-morning flight and had unsuccessfully demanded the air crew provide him with alcohol.

Melbourne Airport said the man was detained by aircrew and ground staff before police arrested him.

"Melbourne Airport is proud of the exceptional response from ground crew, which meant there was no immediate danger to other passengers or airport staff," an airport statement said.

He was assessed by paramedics and taken to a hospital, a police statement said. Police will continue to investigate and charges are likely to be laid at a later date.

The "th" sound is the hardest sound for everybody. You need to give it special attention.

Tongue twisters with “th”
		The thirty-three thieves thought that they thrilled the throne throughout Thursday.
		
		I thought a thought. But the thought I thought Wasn’t the thought I thought I thought. If the thought I thought I thought, Had been the thought I thought, I wouldn’t have thought I thought.
		
		Something in a thirty-acre thermal thicket of thorns and thistles thumped and thundered threatening the three-D thoughts of Matthew the thug – although, theatrically, it was only the thirteen-thousand thistles and thorns through the underneath of his thigh that the thirty-year-old thug thought of that morning.
		
		Thirty-three thousand feathers on a thrushes throat.
