Scritto da: Cailín Nua 12/10/2006 20.42 I've read the message, but with only five lessons of Italian (15 hours), I don't understand very much. I think the gist of it was whether to use 'Don't be shy' versus 'Don't be afraid'. "SEGHE MENTALI" Well it wasn't in the dictionary, so I googled it. I found it here. www.beginningwithi.com/italy/living/itslang.html Interesting,to say the least! I wonder if I'll be able to use that phrase (SEGHE MENTALI)in the oral exam in December. I think not!!
