When I was a little girl, growing in Venosa, in the province of Potenza, in Basilicata, my mother would put a big bow in my hair.
Da quel punto, tutti mi chiamavano 'la bambina col nastro grande!'
From that point on, everyone would call me 'the little girl with the big bow!"
Ora? Now?
Ora tutti mi chiamano La Maestra col sorriso grande!
Now, everyone calls me The Teacher with the big smile!
E tu? And you?
Che e' distinto nel tuo viso or nel tuo vestito?
What is distinctive about your face or about your clothing?
How do you say 'chubby cheeks' in Italian?
ReplyDelete....or 'thunder thighs'?
ReplyDeleteChe magnifica foto!!!!!
ReplyDeleteIl mio tratto più caratteristico sono gli occhi tristi, ma solo perche la forma è all'ingiù. Quando rido tutto cambia!
I miei vestiti sono comodi...
Un sorriso ed una felice giornata

The picture is not mine, but something I found that reminded me of me. Someone else had the big bow!
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry that I have not been here lately - I am so behind that I am not sure if I will ever catch up.
ReplyDeleteWork has been crazy and I end up working in the evenings after dinner. Weekends are busy because I am training to run a half marathon - so I run long miles on saturday morning and then recover rest of the weekend :)
But I selfishly do hope that you won't close this blog. I must make time to be here regularly.
love,
Bhavana
Bhavana,tu sei brava!
ReplyDeleteComplimenti per le tue lezioni Maestra Rosaria sei bravissima.
ReplyDeleteCiao
Quando io ero bambina, mi piace molto parlare. Mia nonna mi ha dato il nome di la chiacchierona!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was a little girl, I like very much to talk. My grandmother gave me the name of "chatterbox."
I have a terrible time with the past tenses. I still talk like a little girl...kind of at the "See Giuseppe run" stage using mainly present tense with words like "yesterday" or "many years ago" to set the comment in time!
Patricia, hang in there! I shall take my lessons slowly into the various tenses, kind of sliding in the pool without feeling the change in temperature.
ReplyDeleteGrazie a tutti per le vostre visite.
Un ringrazio speciale per gli amici italiani che vengano qui a darmi aiuto e coraggio! Grazie Eleonora, e i signori Dual e UIF! Sempre gentili!
UIF-Maurizio, il tuo blog mi da sempre un colpo di gioia! Grazie tanto per la tua amicizia. Saluti alla Sicilia.
