Nice to meet you @Jessica.Caneschi
I would like to live near the sea too!
Some notes:
> a town in Tuscany (we don’t use ‘the’ for cities or regions)
> I have been working in Sintra FOR 7 years
> I usually do sport 3 timeS a week
👌

Me too! It is totally my sense of humour!
This is exactly what I wanted you to do. 👍
The last phrase > ME: Sorry Adam, we should do what to her? (with the intonation on ‘what’)
Good Lucia!

Good work here @Lu_Corde
Here are some suggestions:
4. Instead of Sorry a piece of clarification … better> Sorry, just to clarify …
5. You should use a phrasal verb here: You are using a word that I’m not making out,
7. Can you try and rewrite this?! 😚
8. …. after having picked up Jenny?

Good sensible strategies @Lu_Corde 👌

I am very similar to you I believe!
Just one note:
> but the most important requisites to resist (delete:to) boredom are;
ps. You must try Better Things – I think it is pure dead brilliant and I think you’d like it!

Hi @rubina
Great 👍
A few tweaks to make:
2. Would instead of could
6. cheating ON her (to cheat on someone)
8. spelling > then ✅ Jenny

Nice to meet you Francesco!
I like your philosophy (especially points 3 and 5 – I can relate😂)
English is good 👍 In fact 1, delete ‘the’ before Sintra. We don’t use ‘the’ in front of names
> I work for an IT company, sintra digital business, based in Arezzo. ✅
> French and English need a capital letter
> I when used as the pronoun should always have a capital letter too: I’m trying, I don’t like etc
🤗

That sounds like a pretty awesome weekend @Riccardo.Gai
Good job! 💪
Please see the corrections and just ask if you need clarification
> AT the weekend i usually prefer CYCLING, because it takes more time than a run.
> Instead IN the afternoon, i would stay in, TO relax reading a book, watching Netflix.

@Cristiana.Starnotti this is good work.
Here you’ll find some suggestions to make things sound more natural:
2. Take away ‘that’ – it’s more fluent: Good morning everyone and sorry I’m late.
3. Replace Excuse me with – sorry about that
I just saw that I muted some of you accidentally. Sorry about that, now everyone can hear you.
4. Word order: Sally, I can only see your browser window.
👍

@Mattia.Rosi this is good.
I have a question: do Sintra create digital products for all kinds of companies? Or only companies that do e-commerce?

Well written @Cristiana.Starnotti
Please see my corrections below. If you need anything clarified, please don’t hesitate to ask me.

@Diego.Magionami thank you for sharing – absolutely true about the States. I’ve noticed this in TV series, such as The Wire, where sometimes I needed to put subtitles. I think it makes life more interesting to abandon our idea of a ‘correct’ English, especially the one taught here in schools – as you’ve said, it is rarely used!
Diego, this is nicely written. Here are some notes to help you improve:
> when we say countries that are ‘plural’ we always need to use ‘the’, the UK, the US, the Netherlands etc (Plus watch your verb agreement) : I wasn’t aware that in THE UK there WERE so many accents
> Actually I don’t care about accents AS LONG AS they don’t hinder communication
until is not correct here, we can’t use it like ‘finche: “As long as [x]” means that the condition will be met when [x] ends.”Until [x]” means that the condition will be met when [x] begins.
Let me know if this isn’t clear.
> I feel quite annoyed when someone use a local accents …. can you try and correct this phrase? 👍

Oh man! I can imagine it was pretty embarrassing, but good for you for taking a stand!
