Puedo decir de donde soy ( I can say where do I come from) EPISODIO 3

In our second episode, we discuss the communication between different cultures. A second way of categorising cultures is based on how they see the time. In this instance, we talk about monochronic and polychronic cultures.

The Age of Humans

Episode 2: Monochronic and Polychronic Cultures

Ever found yourself puzzled by the difference between 'it's' and 'its'? Join Smith as they unravel this common linguistic conundrum. How can mastering these distinctions elevate your writing and communication? Let's find out. In this engaging conversation, Smith delves into the essence of 'it's' as a contraction for 'it is' or 'it has,' and 'its' as the possessive form. They provide memorable examples and practical scenarios, such as 'The cat licked its paw' and 'It's been a pleasure,' to solidify comprehension. By the end of this discussion, learners will wield 'it's' and 'its' with confidence and precision in their language use, improving their overall communication.

Mrs Frisby looked again at the sun and saw that she faced an unpleasant choice. She could go home by the same roundabout way she had come, in which case she would surely end up walking alone in the woods in the dark — a frightening prospect, for at night the forest was alive with danger. Then the owl came out to hunt, and foxes, weasels and strange wild cats stalked among the tree trunks. The other choice would be dangerous, too, but with luck it would get her home before dark. That would be to take a straighter route, across the farmyard between the barn and the chicken house, going not too close to the house but cutting the distance by half. The cat would be there somewhere, but by daylight — and by staying in the open, away from the shrubs — she could probably spot him before he saw her.
The cat: He was called Dragon. Farmer Fitzgibbon’s wife had given him the name as a joke when
he was a small kitten pretending to be fierce. But when he grew up, the name turned out to be an apt one. He was enormous, with a huge, broad head and a large mouth full of curving fangs, needle sharp. He had seven claws on each foot and a thick, furry tail, which lashed angrily from side to side. In colour he was orange and white, with glaring yellow eyes; and when he leaped to kill, he gave a high, strangled scream that froze his victims where they stood.

Portuguese Drops 

 Pedindo informações em Português

Moltissimi studenti di italiano, ogni volta che devono utilizzare tempi composti come il passato prossimo o altri tempi verbali come il futuro remoto (ebbene sì, in italiano abbiamo due tempi verbali per il futuro e non te la caverai se userai soltanto il futuro semplice :p ) sono assaliti dal dubbio amletico su quale ausiliare scegliere tra essere e avere, come può capitare a un appassionato di cucina campana, appena arrivato nel centro di Napoli, nel perenne dubbio se prima mangiare una crocchè o una sfogliatella. 

La situazione con i verbi tuttavia è più semplice e possiamo affermare che: 

-in alcuni casi ci sono regole precise sull'uso dell'ausiliare.

- in altri casi non esistono proprio regole precise.

-essere e avere sono gli ausiliari più diffusi ma...attenzione! non sono gli unici ausiliari in italiano(in alcune forme passive si usano altri ausiliari anche i verbi venire, andare, rimanere )

Vediamo insieme le differenze:

​Ausiliare essere= -Si usa per creare la forma passiva.

Esempio: Il centro di Venezia è visitato ogni anno da migliaia di persone. 
-Si usa con la maggior parte dei verbi impersonali

esempio: è avvenuto un contrattempo che ci ha impedito di arrivare in orario.

​-Si usa con la maggior parte dei verbi intransitivi

Esempi:

Luigi è andato a comprare il pane

Narmina è uscita insieme alle amiche.


Ausialiare Avere: -È l'unico usato con i verbi transitivi.

Esempio:

-Mohammed ha aperto la porta.

-Igor ieri sera ha visto un film. 

È usato con alcuni verbi impersonali

come piovere, nevicare, grandinare (che parlano del tempo) ma si può anche utilizzare il verbo essere in questi casi come ausiliare. 

Esempio:

-Ieri ha piovuto per tre ore.

-Ieri è piovuto.

-Viene usato con alcuni verbi intransitivi

in particolare quelli che indicano uno stato mentale o un'attività fisica.

Esempi:

-Arianna oggi ha corso tre chilometri.

-Aisha ha saputo il risultato dell'esame.
