what does it mean latest in italian?

Sorry we only do ENGLISH on this site! Another word for latest would be most recent or newest - that is the film that nobody has seen before.

Hope that helps

why word "acquired" dose'nt fit here?

[Alan]

Hi,

The word needed in the test is 'attain', which means reach in the sense of 'get to'. 'Acquire' means 'get' on its own in the sense of 'possess' and that's not the right word for this context.
