Sorry Dory,hai anche ragione anche te ma il sottoscritto è troppo pigro per tradurre tutto quanto..
Ammetto che la "lista" mi sia stata passata da un amico americano,non mi sono messo a scrivere in inglese tanto per aggiungere un tocco figo al tutto.
Considero già un notevole sforzo il fatto che stamattina mi sia messo ad eliminare i punti non comprensibili agli studenti non americani nonchè ri-numerare i restanti.
Puoi sempre trovarti un/una moroso/a poliglotta che ti traduca il tutto,uniresti l'utile al dilettevole.

Grazie per la dritta...vorrà dire che da oggi metterò un annuncio sull'arena accanto a quelli delle "COMUNICAZIONI PERSONALI" (Vedi: "pantera cubana sensualissima", "ragazza completa e molto disponibile", "bomba sexy", "trans Giovanna", ecc.)
