English term or phrase:
to have a laugh in bed
Italian translation:
farsi una risata a letto
English term
laugh
So he took what he needed.
Technical expertise, grinding toil
and, in the case of one of his assistants,
Matteo Buonarelli, his wife.
Her name is Costanza, Constance.
Did she and Bernini have a laugh in bed about that?
Here she is, in 1637, at the height of their affair.
You can see he can’t get enough of her.
Well, my doubts are also about: at the height of their affair (all'apice della loro relazione?); can’t get enough (??)
Thank you for help!

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.
