Thank you. I needed to know this because i told this to a english speaker person and he thought I was talking about period as in women's issues, u know, the bleeding every 28 days, so I thought that I made a mistake by using that word but according to you, I was right then?

Period has a variety of uses. The English speaking person must have been a little snarky to you. A period is at the end of a sentence, it can be like saying "The 1890's were an interesting time period", or "What time period do I have to get this done?", and of course, the woman's issue. It's all in the context.

I am assuming this means a season or weather period, or period of time depending on the context. Period could be used as it is an English word as long as it is used properly.

Portuguese, Italian, French. probable in that order. Esperanto might want to bypass on the starting up of that record in case you count number it, yet i think maximum does no longer. I purely took 6 years of Spanish in center college and extreme college, and that i hit upon i can oftentimes get the gist of maximum issues written in Portuguese and Italian. French is somewhat extra sketchy. English isn't a lot help with something else.
