Dear Charles and all,
I'm sorry. I thought the adress was in the attachment. Anyway, thatnks for answering.
Rachel's address is [log in to unmask] By the way, the L2 grammar book we use in class
(Crescendo, p. 97) reads: ".. agreement is mandatory with lo, la, li, le. It is optional
and less common with mi, ti, ci, and vi.
Examples..
Vi hanno invitato- ti?"
