The park sign
by Alessio · teacher of Italian as a foreign language, ITALS master’s
The rules at the park entrance: negation is highlighted.
PARCO DELLE ROSE
Benvenuti! Poche regole
Canisì, ma non senza guinzaglio
Biciclettenon si corre sui vialetti
Fioribelli, vero? Non si raccolgono
Picnicsì, sui prati; non vicino al laghetto
Musicava bene, ma non alta: qui si riposa
Domande? Il custode non morde: lo trovate al chiosco. Il parco chiude alle 20, d'estate non prima delle 22.
