Mary Anning facts!

Mary Anning was born in the seaside town of Lyme Regis, Dorset, UK, in 1799. Although her parents had ten children, only Mary and her brother Joseph lived to adulthood. It’s said Mary had a lucky escape when she was a baby. The lady holding her was struck by lightning. Miraculously, little Mary survived. Mary’s father didn’t earn much in his job as a cabinet maker, so he boosted the family’s earnings by looking for fossils (known as ‘curiosities‘ back then) at the beach and selling them to holidaymakers. After their father’s death in 1810, Mary and Joseph carried on fossil hunting, to support the family.

UK and London. Le origini dell’inglese, una lingua ibrida e flessibile parlata in tutto il mondo. Da una ricerca dell’EF è emerso che noi italiani siamo tra gli ultimi posti in quanto a conoscenza dell’inglese e specialmente il sud Italia sembra davvero refrattario all’apprendimento di questa lingua.

Le origini dell’inglese, una lingua ibrida e flessibile parlata in tutto il mondo

Nella percezione degli italiani, sembra molto più semplice imparare lo spagnolo perché più familiare, sia “a orecchio”, sia linguisticamente. L’italiano e lo spagnolo sono infatti definite lingue romanze e condividono con francese, portoghese e romeno un antenato comune, il latino. L’inglese, nonostante la presenza di parole molto simili a francese e latino, sembra seguire delle regole grammaticali, sintattiche e fonetiche molto lontane da quelle dell’italiano, perchè non appartiene alla famiglia delle lingue romanze e tra i suoi numerosi antenati non annovera il latino.
