I'm ITALIAN!!!

I'm Italian, my first language is Italian not English, in my profile there is the evidence that I live in Italy, I have never said that I studied English in a professional way, I always alert my English friends when I have to meet them that I don't speak fluently in English...

so please could you stop to leave nasty comments about my foreign languages skill?

IF you want to comment to help me, to warn me about a grammar error, to alert me if my sentence was bad phrased so much that what I want to say is not clear, you are welcome to do so.

BUT if you only want to be offensive, than go in another blog. First I didn't ask you to come here, if you did, it was your choice. Second, how many foreign languages do you know? When I was in school, I had 10/10 in Italian, literature and grammar, plus above the average vote in History. I graduated in Economics with 103/110 in 3,5 years when the time lapse was 4, and when the average in my University (one of the best Economics facutly in Italy) was 7...

Do you have the same results as me? If so, you are allowed to leave nasty comments, IN ITALIAN, on my LJ. We can play at the same level.

I'm always surprised to find people can be that nasty:) However, I don't think they would have the courage once standing face to face with you;)

Elisa, your English is great, you read, you write in foreign language so you use English a lot and I wonder which one of the nasty reviewers do this with any foreign language???

Besides, many native English people make so horrible mistakes that I can't get over them while reading (at least they could check the spelling but they don't!!!)

I study English in professional way and tell you what, I still make mistakes:) It's very difficult to achieve a certain level and communicate like well-educated native:) But I'm trying:)

Ciao ragazza:)

Thank you. yes, I always wonder why people feel the need to be nasty... it's like going guest and spit in their home... well, I had my rant, and now I feel better ;-) Thank you, Elisa
