Potrebbe aiutarmi? <<Ricordi quella volta a casa di Ernesto? Quanto ci siamo divertiti!>> <<Certo che mi ricordo... Quanto abbiamo riso! Quella notte abbiamo alzato tutti un po' gomito, vero?>> I understand the sentences above, but some expressions. In the two sentences, the word, Quanto, <<Quanto ci siamo divertiti>> and <<Quanto abbiamo riso>> "How funny we were" and "How much we laughed" translated into English? And, the expression, <Alzare il gomito> is the same to Bere troppo? If so, generally, which is better to use? Alare il gomito, just between friends or familiar people? or so much used in daily life that no one cares? Whenever I leave some questions here, always get great answers from kind Italian people. I'm so grateful to you guys. Buona giornata!

Che significano <A viareggio> e <Qudri scuri>? Mi sa dire che significano le due frasi? <<A viareggio, durante le vacanze estive. Ogni anno la mia famiglia affittava la casa di un architetto che era piena di quadri scuri.>> Ecco la mia traduzione, <A viareggio> during the summer vacation. Every year my family used to lend the house of an architect where was filled with <Quadri scuri>. Of course, I've tried to look up, but can't find the meaning. A viareggio? Quadri sicuri? Potrebbe aiutarmi? Grazie tante!

On purpose, I've passed the tense, Passato Remoto. It would be ok? As I mentioned above, I haven't studied Passato Remoto on purpose. First of all, as I started learning Italian, I was overwhelmed by the forms of verbs, felt like passing some tenses if those might not be used often. I haven't tried to memorize the form of passato remoto, but the tense shows up in dictionaries more often than I expected. Is it used often in conversation, as well? Mi andrebbe bene se continuassi a passarlo? Ho bisogno del Suo consiglio. Grazie!

Gli italiani non usano molto il condizionale ed il congiuntivo in conversazione? I was told that the two moods were not used that much in daily life, except something like, Vorrei.. However, what if I'd like to be considered well-educated or cultured? Is it better to use the moods as much as possible? On the other hand, if I often used the moods in daily life, would I look kind of boring? Actually, it's too difficult to use both, almost impossible now, so I still need some dictionary of the verbs to do, but I was just wondering.. Mi scusi, se scrivessi questa domanda in italiano, sarebbe meglio. Grazie per la Sua attenzione.
