Question 3. Some nicknames are a short form of a name and other nicknames are made-up. Do you have a nickname? Why do people use nicknames?

Hello!
My nicknames are Teesia,Tessu and Tess. I think that people use nicknames because all the long names. And if you come from different countries and you have a special name and you don't want that people to pronounce it wrong, so you say a nickname, that is shorter and easier to use.

Yes, I have a rabbit called Lizzie. I don`t know what her name means. I select the name because I thought it was a nice name and I knew a dog with the same name. Yes, I think. Bengt is not a good name for a horse. Animals could have the same name it doesn't matter if it's a cat or a horse.

No, I don't create my own music, but I like music. My favourite music is rap music. I like rap music because they sing very good and cool and is better than many other musics. Yes there is special music or speed for some dancing musics e.x. Breakdanse and slow danses. Breakdanse needs fast music but slow danses needs very slow speed on the music. Yes I know some other culture musics e.x. Jugoslavian folkdanse.

Hi!
No, I don't create my music but I like music like rap, r&b and soul because it's cool and not like classic and opera. Breakdance is also cool cause the music is fast and the dance moves are really cool. In my country we have different music styles like pop and opera.
