The Italians themselves abusing "say" and "do": I take a picture Yesterday I did the Christmas tree, I told a secret to Mary, the priest says Mass, etc. ... etc. ...
are just some examples that demonstrate how we are all too fond of these two words.
would rather take a picture , celebrate Mass, decorate the Christmas tree .....
By the way, did you?
I propose a valid exercise taken from the Italian text Project 3 Edilingua Ed:
- Which of these would replace the verb synonym say?
confess, tell, reveal, express, explain, say, report, provide.
a) I said incredible.
b) Why do not you tell mail your views.
c) At the end said that it was he.
d) I said that he would return in time.
s) Tell me why you did it!
f) we Lucia said the news of the accident.
g) Galileo said that the earth revolves.
h) At the end you said that famous secret?
And we produce a similar but on the verb do.
organize, prepare, spend, write, hang out, give birth, build, count.
a) Maria ago an aerobics class.
b) Yesterday I did dinner for everyone.
c) I'd like to do a novel.
d) The mason did the wall too high.
e) This year I rental home.
f) Our city is almost one hundred thousand inhabitants.
g) The cat did four kittens.
h) Where make the next Olympics?
the next.
