[vanessadimarco]

I was born In Rome, Italy in a quaint neighbor Trastevere. It was a working class part of the city with old buildings, churches and shops. Because of this foreigners, mostly Americans and also artists start burying house there and the gentrification started and still goes on. Now the apartments ost an arm and a leg!

[cutefunnybaby]

I adore your I‘m from in Uzbekistan. THANK YOU🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[tamarapuzeyeva]

Thanks Ben for your riveting videos and sizeable input in my English studies! 😉
I’ve also come across a new word lately - “infobesity”. Really like it, as it describes the modern overburdened information space so accurately)

[silcaldera]

I hadn’t paid attention to the sizeable number of portmanteau words there are in English. Now that you mention them, I´ve started seeing them everywhere (glamping, sitcom, smog, etc.). English is such a flexible language! (by the way, neither had I heard the word “portmanteau” before, it sounds French to me! 😂).

[zeghoudrayane]

I'am thrilled cause I have a staycation next week with my family, I fully and literally stoked🙏😊😊

[hannofranz]

Most expressions were familiar to me. Nevertheless, it was useful to get them explained more in detail. I very much appreciate the way you are picking up vocab that has turned into really typical in social media usage and socio-political reflections.

[zsofiasemjen]
