Descrizione dell’episodio

In questo episodio di Italiano Chiaro, esploriamo alcune abitudini italiane che potrebbero sembrare strane ad altre culture. Dalla colazione al bar alle regole non scritte sul cappuccino, passando per il temuto “colpo d’aria” e la missione per prevenire la “congestione,” vi svelerò alcuni dettagli curiosi della vita quotidiana italiana.

Parleremo anche di famiglia e delle particolarità italiane: il ruolo centrale dei nonni, i giovani che vivono con i genitori fino a tarda età e, ovviamente, l’approccio rilassato alla puntualità.

Se state pianificando di trasferirvi in Italia o siete semplicemente curiosi di capire meglio la nostra cultura, questo episodio è per voi. Buon ascolto e a presto!

LECTURA COMPRENSIVA.

ESTE CUENTO NOS HABLA DE UN GATO QUE SE LLAMA DÁMASO.

Antes de comenzar la lectura.

1. ¿Te gustan los animales?

2. ¿Que animales tienes en tu casa?

Presta atención a la lectura de tu profesor.

Me llamo Dámaso y soy un gato que abandonó la ciudad. Allí vivía en una bonita casa
llena de lujos y comodidades. Tenía una cesta para dormir, leche templada y la mejor
comida para gatos. Pero mis dueños me dejaban solo mucho tiempo. Y, la verdad, me
aburría un poco. Así que me fui.

Ahora vivo en el campo; aquí la vida es mucho más emocionante. Nunca sé qué voy a
comer, pero tengo muchos amigos y... ¡soy libre!

Damaso the cat

Nivel: A2. B1.
Tema: Repaso rrápido de gramática.

Hoy tenemos ejemplos sencillos para comprender la diferencia entre los verbos  SENTIR, como un verbo "normal", y SENTIRSE, que termina en "SE", y es pronominal. Entonces usamos los pronombres reflexivos para conjugar sentIRSE y claro, eso tiene un efecto en su significado... bueno.. su toque de locura y allí está la diferencia.

¿Hablamos de eso?. Claro. Y como siempre te invito a escribir tus propias oraciones y luego... a USAR todo esto que repasas aquí. 

Gracias por comentar, por suscribirte y por proponer nuevos temas.

Oh.., ¿Ya reservaste tu próxima lección?... ¿Si?, hmmm, siento que no es verdad :D!

Nos vemos.
Rocio.
