मेरी भावनाएँ / My feelings and emotions 

C’era una volta un lupo, magro e affamato: erano diversi giorni che non trovava nulla da mettere sotto i denti. Un sera, passò davanti al cortile di una casa e vide un cane. Era un bel cane grassottello.  “Come mai sei così grassottello? Dove trovi tanto da mangiare?” chiese il lupo al cane.
“Il mio padrone è un brav’uomo: riempie la mia ciotola ogni giorno” gli rispose l’altro. 
Il lupo, però, si accorse che la pelliccia del cane, sul collo, era tutta rovinata.
“Cos’hai fatto al collo?” gli domandò. “E’ il collare: il mio padrone me lo mette di giorno, quando mi lega alla catena. La notte, invece, mi libera, così faccio la guardia”. Il lupo si allontanò e tornò nel bosco: preferisco mille volte andare dove voglio che avere la pancia piena ma vivere alla catena.

Morale della favola: la libertà non ha prezzo.

¿DE DÓNDE PROVIENE EL IDIOMA ESPAÑOL?

Everyone has their preferred way of drinking coffee. Maybe you like yours black, or maybe you prefer a bit of sugar in it.

But have you ever tried drinking coffee with salt?

Adding a pinch of salt to your cup of coffee is said to make it taste less bitter.

And putting salt in coffee isn't new. In some countries, such as Turkey and Hungary, people have done this for years.

But a cafe in Vietnam is believed to have started the newest trend — salt coffee.

It's a little different from just putting salt in your coffee, though. Salt coffee is said to have come from a small cafe in Hue ("hwEH"), a city in central Vietnam.

The cafe's name, Ca Phe Muoi, is also the name of the drink, since ca phe means "coffee" and muoi means "salt" in Vietnamese.

Salt coffee is made by mixing sweet condensed milk with a base of Vietnamese coffee, and adding salted cream to the top.

The cafe's owners hoped this unique drink would bring in more customers, and it did.

"In Hue, salt coffee became a daily drink like black coffee or white coffee," the cafe's owners told CNN Travel in June.

And it wasn't just in Hue where people fell in love with salt coffee — the cafe's website sells bottles of it to send around the country, and now Starbucks even sells its own version of salt coffee.

Vietnam is one of the world's largest coffee growers, and has a rich coffee culture.

Salt coffee is just one of many unique Vietnamese coffee drinks.

Others include egg coffee (which has a topping of egg yolks and condensed milk), coconut coffee, and yogurt coffee.
