Thank you, Rozakia, but I'm afraid you failed the tenses, they are very tricky. I am confused,too.

Oana, that's not so bad.
I'd just correct the first sentence into
"It's the fifth time I'm using it" or even "This is ..."

The other two lines are correct except for the use of "that", which is not necessary (not wrong, though).

Lilian, you save me. It was a mistake to reject it, I myself not able to do them, I just hoped that it goes back and someone else is doing it again, because the tenses are important to me. (I'm sorry Rozakia, I didn't want to be mean, but I have exam on monday and that's why I'm in hurry). Lilian, did you see that you had to correct almost all the translations, these tenses are really a problem for us. I explain you why I rejected (sorry again). In the class the professor told us that "It is the first time..." asks for present perfect "It is the first time I have used this computer". and "It was the first time" asks simple past "It was the first time I used the computer". As I have difficulties in Italian grammar, too, I get confused.

rozakia has made the changes needed, I just edited the second sentence into "That..." because we are talking about the past and must use "that" instead of "this", but for the rest I, myself consider the translation correct.

Oana, would you like to accept it now?

I would accept it but I don't know how. And I prefer a poll for it

Ok..no problem. I am sorry I could not be of much help as well. But it's a good way of learning, and know what to do in other situations.

I am new here, and I do not have any idea of making polls...I do not have idea either if you can do it, or I need to do it here... I prefer you do it anyway... Greetings.

Welcome to Cucumis rozaika.
I've set a poll, just to get the opinion of other users who master both languages. It's a standard procedure. Once people confirm the version is accurate in meaning I can accept it, OK?
