“Language is representation,
it`s not what you say or listen...”
Robert O’Neill stands for the most legendary writer and that
is a consensus in the ELT world community. He was unique,
excentric, enciclopedic and trailblazing.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Robert O’Neill He inspired me on new ideas and concepts on oral production
which I have them developed at Manchester University and
also more on teaching in America, the UK and South American countries.
He passed away in 2014 and his last job on earth was teaching Polish nurses in his
deathbed. What a generous, charismatic and glorious brilliance!
As a franciscan friar, I held his hand in his last minutes. I fulfilled the promise of being his
“Angel of Death” and I was proud to inherit his books and carry on his ingenious legacy.

national implementation thereof, including any amended or successor version of such
directive); and other similar, equivalent or corresponding rights throughout the world based
on applicable law or treaty, and any national implementations thereof.
2. Waiver. To the greatest extent permitted by, but not in contravention of, applicable law,
Affirmer hereby overtly, fully, permanently, irrevocably and unconditionally waives, abandons,
and surrenders all of Affirmer's Copyright and Related Rights and associated claims and
causes of action, whether now known or unknown (including existing as well as future claims
and causes of action), in the Work (i) in all territories worldwide, (ii) for the maximum duration
provided by applicable law or treaty (including future time extensions), (iii) in any current or
future medium and for any number of copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever, including
without limitation commercial, advertising or promotional purposes (the "Waiver"). Affirmer
makes the Waiver for the benefit of each member of the public at large and to the detriment
of Affirmer's heirs and successors, fully intending that such Waiver shall not be subject to
revocation, rescission, cancellation, termination, or any other legal or equitable action to
disrupt the quiet enjoyment of the Work by the public as contemplated by Affirmer's express
Statement of Purpose.
3. Public License Fallback. Should any part of the Waiver for any reason be judged legally
invalid or ineffective under applicable law, then the Waiver shall be preserved to the
maximum extent permitted taking into account Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose.
In addition, to the extent the Waiver is so judged Affirmer hereby grants to each affected
person a royalty-free, non transferable, non sublicensable, non exclusive, irrevocable and
unconditional license to exercise Affirmer's Copyright and Related Rights in the Work (i) in
all territories worldwide, (ii) for the maximum duration provided by applicable law or treaty
(including future time extensions), (iii) in any current or future medium and for any number
of copies, and (iv) for any purpose whatsoever, including without limitation commercial,
advertising or promotional purposes (the "License"). The License shall be deemed effective LIFEUSA INTERNATIONAL
as of the date CC0 was applied by Affirmer to the Work. Should any part of the License for any
reason be judged legally invalid or ineffective under applicable law, such partial invalidity or www.lifeusa.international
ineffectiveness shall not invalidate the remainder of the License, and in such case Affirmer
hereby affirms that he or she will not (i) exercise any of his or her remaining Copyright and
Related Rights in the Work or (ii) assert any associated claims and causes of action with
respect to the Work, in either case contrary to Affirmer's express Statement of Purpose.
