11 -failed o bankrupt?-
Nota d'usoL'aggettivo failed si riferisce a tutti i tipi di insuccesso, eccetto il fallimento finanziario: I'm just a failed artist, sono solo un artista fallito. Per indicare un fallimento finanziario si usano sostantivi come bankrupt o bust: Her business went bust, la sua azienda è fallita. Nel caso di un negozio l'espressione più usata è to close down: The gift shop has closed down, il negozio di regali è fallito. -
12 -to close o to close down?-
Nota d'usoIl verbo to close, usato in riferimento a qualsiasi attività commerciale, significa chiudere temporaneamente (per poi riaprire): The supermarket closes at 8 p.m., il supermercato chiude alle 8 di sera. Quando invece si vuole indicare una cessata attività è necessario ricorrere al verbo frasale to close down: That shop closed down last week, quel negozio ha chiuso (per sempre) la settimana scorsa. -
