New words - We shall try opening the door with the key we found before, shan't we? - I said. Her hands clasped mine: "We shouldn't do this, my friend. Allegedly, this cave is full of traps, and it was too easy to find this key. It's a trap, we shouldn't insert it into the keyhole". She raised the torch higher and stirred the staled air. - I can't help thinking that somebody's glaring at us. - she clutched the torch more firmly and swung it twice with force. - Hey! Come out! Nobody responded. I had the same disagreeable feeling of being watched by someone. Someone obviously evil but not powerfull enough to harm us at the moment. - Ann, look here at the door. It seems there's wax on the door plate. A lot of wax! Ann stopped swaying the torch, and with inherent scrupulosity started investigating the plate. We found several scratches that turned out to be a series of ragged dashes made by a trembling arm. A lone reckless adventurer left a simple but horrid message for us: "RUN".

Verbs + to/ing I expected Ann to be late. She enjoyed not having to be too punctual and accurate, being a kind of unpredictable and vague. We decided not to go too far from the town. Probably we should have dared explore distant routes, but eventually agreed to take a walk to an old church, and this should have taken not more then 3 hours in total. While waiting her I was reading a paper. There was an interesting article about the latest research on the Earth-like planets, and I totally plunged into it. - You appears to have been taken away by this reading, - Ann materialized from nowhere. - How's it going? I said that I everything's fine and we might go. - Have you decided whether to circumvent the forest or not? - she asked. - I'd prefer to pass through! - I forget to tell you, there's a stream crossing this forest. We might have to wade across. - Do you want me to carry you over it? - as usual, my bosom friend was in a good mood.

Passato 1 Anna mi ascoltava ed ho iniziato il mio racconto. - Da bambino mi piaceva molto viaggiare. Avevo una bici vecchia, che sempre riparavo. Questa bici, grande, nera, con una scocca alta, m'era regalata dal mio nonno. All'inizio non poteva sedere sulla sella, perchè era troppo alta. Così, dovevo stare sempre in piedi sulle pedali, e la mia gamba destra era sempre sotto la canna della scocca. Dapprima era un po' scomodo, però mi sono abituato, ed ho persino imparato a trasportare il mio fratello minore insieme con me - lei sedeva proprio sulla sella non occupata. Era uno spettacolo! Lei mi ha annuito e mi ha sorriso.

Tags/verb -ing "Do you know where the train station is?", - asked me Ann. I didn't have any idea: "We've got lost, have we?" - Yes, it seems so! What a rridiculousness to get lost in such a small village! - she smiled ironically. - Let's go for a walk and try to find someone, shall we? - Yes, what else can we do? We passed a mile and found nobody. The village looked completely deserted this evening though it was only five to nine. - Haven't you got a map?, - I said. - No, - Ann didn't look tired at all and seemed like she started enjoying by the awkwardness of our situation. - You shouldn't worry, we still have two more hours to find the station till the last train departed". - I hope so, - I replied. - I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't find a single person alive here! She laughed and made a scary face: "Boooo! Look at me, I'm a zombie girl trying to gobble you up!". For fun I recoiled and took a battle stand: "Come here, you!" For a second I imagined us wandering in wastelands, like last people on the Earth, poor creatures having to drag out a miserable existence. This was enough for Ann to take her chance, she jumped on me and started biting my neck furiosly. I admitted having suffered a dreadful death.

Reported speech Ann asked me whether I had been to Mexico. I answered that I had. Then she wanted to know how long I had been there. I said that I had spent there around 10 days. Also I told her that I had liked that trip very much. She nodded understandingly and sighed: "I can imagine! I've been to there once, it was an amazing vacation". "But it was so hot that time", - she said. - "I'm not accustomed to the hot weather very much". "Neither am I", - I replied. - "But if you're by the sea it's not a problem at all". Ann agreed. At that moment my phone rang. It was Andrew, he was asking me if I was going to join him on the week-end and visit a country-side Russian bathhouse ("banya"). I told him that I'd had to decide and I would call him in an hour. Ann asked me who called, and I said that it was a friend of mine, and I would call him back later today. "Will you?"- she wondered. - "It's five to ten PM already. He might go to the bed soon". I said not to worry about this as Andrew usually goes to the bed pretty late.

La mia prima conversazione Oggi ho avuto la mia prima conversazione su Italki, dopo 6 mesi di non aver parlato con nessuno in Italiano. Come potete indovinare, era difficile per me, perché la parte "italiana" della mia mente è diventata un po' rigida e provavo dei problemi cercando le parole giuste per esprimermi. Nella lingua parlata il mio lessico si semplifica drammaticamente, faccio tante errori. Però, non mi deludo. La mia insegnante è molto buona e cordiale. All'inizio abbiamo chiacchierato un po' di tutto, poi abbiamo iniziato a fare qualche esercizio sull'argomento della ... pizza! C'era un esercizio divertente sull'espressione "vanno a ruba". Ho dovuto spiegare che cosa c'era sull'imagine (un pizzaiolo corrente con un matterello nelle mani prova a raggiungere ed afferrare un ladro chi ha rubato un sacco delle pizze calde). Poi dovevo provare ad indovinare che cosa significa questa espressione: "Le nostre pizze vanno a ruba!". Non ho mai sentito questa espressione, ma la mia variante è stato giusto. Che gioia! :)

la mia prima nota Qualche settimana fa mi sono iscritto su Italki, cercando dei compagni di studio ed insegnanti di lingue stranieri. Mi concentro sull'italiano e l'inglese per ora. L'inglese mi serve per lavoro, ma dapprima non mi interessava molto, però ho cambiato l'opinione e adesso mi piace anche l'inglese, e lo vorrei migliorare. La storia d'Italiano è diversa - questa lingua affascinante mi ha incantato subito, dal tempo del mio primo viaggio in Italia. Non ho iniziato a studiarla immediatamente dopo il mio ritorno. Però, fra due or tre anni mi sono risolto a mettermi in questa avventura, e non me ne pento! :) Così, la mia prima nota è conclusa :) Se tu sai l'italiano e vorresti aiutarmi - scrivimi. E grazie delle vostre correzioni!
