Bedside Italian

Bedside Italian #27 - Gli aspetti più difficili dell'italiano.

Seguimos con la gran aventura de nuestra querida gaviota... Y Juan Salvador Gaviota se encontró así en el cielo. Pero aunque el cielo era lo máximo y mientras más practicaba sus lecciones de bondad, y mientras más trabajaba para conocer la naturaleza del amor, más deseaba volver a la Tierra. Porque, a pesar de su pasado solitario, Juan Salvador había nacido para ser instructor, y su manera de demostrar el amor era compartir algo de la verdad que había
visto, con alguna gaviota que estuviese pidiendo sólo una oportunidad de ver la verdad por sí misma. Tomó, pues, la decisión de volver...

Dornröschen

Speaker 1: For me, having a dumbphone would be …dumb. I really like surfing the web on my phone to find out about things. If I hear the name of an actor I don’t know about, I can look them up, or if I‘m in a new place and I want to find a restaurant to go to, I can find somewhere easily. Plus, I love Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter. I follow loads of celebrities and I love to watch concerts and live-tweet what is happening. Without my smartphone, my friends wouldn’t know what I was doing. It would feel very strange.

Speaker 2: I’m seriously thinking about getting a dumbphone. I hate how the battery on my smartphone is in control of my life. I always have to find somewhere to charge the phone when I’m out and I’m always worried about it. I also don’t like the way search engines record your history and use it to sell you things. I feel as though my attention is always taken away from everything I do with my smartphone because I use it so much. I was with a friend the other day and after a while, we were sitting there not talking, just looking at our phones. It was like our phones just killed the conversation. We didn’t even realize it was happening.

Speaker 3: I like the idea of a dumbphone. I’m just not sure if I would like it in practice. I travel a lot with my work, so it really helps being able to access my inbox when I’m out. If I didn’t, I would spend all my time in the office answering emails. I also have a favorite podcaster who I listen to all the time when I’m traveling. I can download his latest episode and pass the time when I’m on a flight or a train. I do enjoy being offline as I feel as though I am always using my phone to communicate, with email, Skype, phone calls, and text. But I think if I didn’t have access to the Internet most of the time, I would worry.
