"Ha fatto un buon discorso."

Translation: He gave a good speech.

[kkulonja]

Shouldn't it be: "Ha pronunciato un buon discorso." ?

[SimonJay]

Since this is present perfect, would "has made" or "has given" also work?

[garagonp]

mm I have a question here, if we think that someone has to write a speech and once he has finished writing the speech, we can say "he made a good speech", and after he gives the speech we can say "he gave a good speech", so at least we have more information
we can use both, correct?

[roman2095]

"he made a good speech" means that "he gave a good speech" - it does not mean that he wrote a good speech.

[PanosDiCucchiaio]

why should 'he had made - he gave' be accepted while 'he had given' should not? After all, perfect tense is accepted, as is the verb 'give', which is, of course, the most 'natural' verb to use with speech...

[amen94rocks]

Why can it not be "He had a good discussion" when one of the listed correct answers is "He had a good conversation"?

[valerieheath]

"Discussion" is in the listed hints, but not accepted by DL.
I had the same problem.

[DeniseCott4]

Maybe because fatto means he 'made' a speech, which wouldn't work with discussion?

[Jens193830]

He delivered a good speech.
