2. Every Wednesday we would write to each other by e-mail. I was always very happy to receive his letters.

    - I don't know either; however, I do have their e-mail address if you want it.

4. - I don't want anything not even a coffee.
    - Are you sick, Carletto?
    - No, I'm not at all sick.

5. - Do you see the snow?
    - No, I see neither snow nor rain. Why do you tell lies?
    - It's not true...I never tell lies!

6. - We are going to the movies with you this evening, right?
    - With us? No, because we have to go to Mario's (house).
    - Why are you going to his place?
    - Because he needs help; he can't do anything by himself!

7. - These medieval letters are not for you (pl.); they are for them. This one is for him and that one is for her.

8. My parents were always very busy at the academy. Painting was their life! Sometimes they didnšt show me a lot of affection. I would spend a lot of time by myself.
