Dear Mike,
well, well, well!
You have pointed out another case of identical form of writing or of sound
(but with different meanings) existing between English and Italian language.
De facto the word "sole" for you is a flatfish, for me is "sun".
I, before starting the last telecon, pointed out that your sound for the word "Hi" (Italian "Ciao") has the same sound of the Italian "Ahi" (in English "Ouch").
Your word "fine" has many meanings for me: "smart", "subtle", "end", "purpose" etc.
And, funny, the word "ape" for you is a monkey but for me is a bee.
To be continued?
For the second time I wonder if both of us have also the task of propagate culture.
Augusto
