Newsgroup: it.cultura.linguistica.inglese
Titolo: Livius Ringrazia

I'm just get here, and I've already 3 answers. Wonderful!... No, Wonderwall!
It doesn't matter if you've no the answer to my questions. I'd like thank
you all the same.
To Isabella:
Thanks for your welcome. For your kindness and 'cause you've "The Complete
Mike Oldfield" too, I appoint you " Mary Isa Queen of NG".  @-'-,----
To Giorgio:
All the Oldfield's fans are friends of mine. I've all his (19) albums (but
the last one). So, I send you this riddle: into what Oldfield's play is the
Ben Jonson's " Hymn to Diana "? (the goddess, not the princess). CH4 will
give you a hand.  ;-)
To Anna:
I agree with you. Music is not something to understand, it's something to
love. But where's the poetry in "The sink is full of fishes /  'Cos she's
got dirty dishes on the brain"? (cfr. "Some might say"). Long live to Noel.
:-)
Bye bye by now by Livius

Mike Oldfield" too, I appoint you " Mary Isa Queen of NG".  @-'-,----
Ehm... ragazzi... glielo dite voi...? Dai, non fatelo dire a me... :-)))
(Livius, stavolta non è l'inglese...)
Be back soon, dearie
Ciao
Isa

Nutro la speranza che si tratti di Bambi. Tale fu la sua "inglesitudine" che
ai suoi primi messaggi pensai volesse soltanto seminar zizzania in mezzo
al grano e andarsene. Fui in errore, e ora ringrazio il cielo per il tempo
che ha dedicato a it.cultura.linguistica.inglese.
P.S. Dopo l'enorme successo di "Chi ha incastrato Roger Rabbit?",
un nuovo fantastico film dalla Disney: "Chi ha defenestrato Janis?"
Ciao,
Dario.

no. Visto che le Regine sono rimaste in due, puoi benissimo dire 
"the bluer".

Needn't we?
ciao, .mau.


No, mi dispiace, non funziona. Peltio aveva ragione la prima volta.
Si dice, per esempio:
We needn't go shopping, need we? (Non è necessario che facciamo la spesa, vero?)
Ma:
We need to go shopping, don't we? (Dobbiamo fare la spesa, vero?)

love...
Dear Livius, that was not exactly what I meant... We all want to understand
the things we love. I started to learn English through songs and I always
try to understand the lyrics: they have a lot to teach, IMO. But in this
particular circumstance I can't help... Anyway, I have just found out what
"morning glory" means (see Fabio Russo's thread). This ng is really
SOMETHING!
