Punctuation matters!

~ perché la punteggiatura è importante in inglese ~

In modo divertente, ovviamente artificioso ma nello stesso tempo efficace, queste due piccole lettere fanno vedere come un cambio di punteggiatura può stravolgere il significato di una calorosa dichiarazione di amore in una graffiante lettera d’addio!

Buona lettura 🙂

🔵 Dear Bob,
I want a man who knows what love is all about. You are generous, kind, and thoughtful. People who are not like you admit to being useless and inferior. You have ruined me for other men. I yearn for you. I have no feelings whatsoever when we are apart. I can be forever happy: will you let me be yours?
Gloria
