Hello everybody !
What would I do if I could be invisible for a day is not easy to be answered as I know it will never happen. It reminds me of the question what would you to if you were a millionaire. The answer to this question is mostly the same and sounds like I would spend a portion to a charitable society,to relatives and close friends and the most part of the moneyI would leave to the bank to increase the capital and so live a quiet life. When it really happens everything is different .
Sorry,I want to come back to theoriginal question.If my bad manners prevail I would rob a bank and keep the money, and if my good manners prevail I would carry the stolen money to the poor people.
Please consider the last sentence as exercise, and I am not the man who robbed the bank.
Regards for all

Hello Manfred! :)
What would I do if I could be invisible for a day is not an easy question to be answered as I know it will never happen. It reminds me of the question what would you do if you were a millionaire. The answer to this is question is mostly the same and sounds as if I would give a portion. to a charitable organisation, to relatives and close friends, and the majority I would leave in the bank to increase the capital.and so live a quiet life. When it really happens, everything is different.
Sorry, I want to come back to the original question. If my bad personality?were to prevail, I would rob a bank and keep the money.; and if my good personality? were to prevail, I would take the stolen money to the poor people.
Please consider my last sentence as an exercise as I am not a man who would rob a bank. (Is this what you meant Manfred?:)) I don't think you would either - but if you did - share a little with me! :))))) This is my bad side speaking! :))
You have done so well Manfred. I have just made a few minor alterations - I think you can assimilate these into your already extensive understanding of English! If I am wrong, please let me know and I will answer any question you may have.

Hello June !:)
Thank you very much for the correction .
For sure I am not a man who would rob a bank, but it is my (bad) humor which is responsible formy last sentence,and I really wanted to say that I wasn’t the (invisible) man who robbed the bank.With this statement I only wanted to help the police not to waste to much time in thinkingthat I was the invisible robberwhothe have been looking for .( There are always some unresolvedbank robberies with invisible robbers, I suppose.) I admit that in Austria we have sometimes a different kind of humor and I hope I haven’t insulted the police.
Thanks for all June

When I be invisible i want be a naked for all day :) Making some jokes for my friends.
sauterelle (43)
Hello Irmina!
When you write about something imagined, that won't really happen, you use the word 'were' like this:
If I were invisible I would want to be invisible all day. :) Playing some jokes on my friends.
What if you were to suddenly become visible? -:)
Perhaps you would get back home before that happened?
June :)
Ir.mina (27)
Thank you June :)
I have problems with the construction of sentences and grammer.
Ohh..no! I don't want be visible in outside. <-- this correct?
sauterelle (43)
Hello Irmina!
It is very difficult to construct sentences in another language.
The only comfort is that everybody is the same. :-)
It is nearly right:
Oh no! I don't want to be visible to people outside.
I think you would have to get back home before you became visible again. :))
You are doing very well for a beginner.
June :)

Hello Manfred!
I get the point of your joke now! :))
Here, a well known person in a TV series, says when he hears the door bell: "If that's the Invisible Man, tell him I can't see him!"
This gets a laugh every time. As the series is played only in the peson's living room, and they have many visitors, the door bell is heard many times!
You have not offended anyone, Manfred.
I think that humour is very much universal, we all seem to laugh at the same things!
Thank you Manfred for your response!
