Gli articoli determinativi

Ciao!:

Today we keep studying the articles

Gli articoli determinativi

We use the determinative articles to mention nouns or objects we have already introduce in the conversation.

In English we use "The" both for male and female nouns in their singular and plural form 

ITALIAN	ENGLISH
IL	THE (MALE- SINGULAR)
LO	THE (MALE- SINGULAR)
LA	THE (FEMALE- SINGULAR)
L’	THE ( SINGULAR STARTING WITH A VOWEL)

• Lo is used before masculine nouns beginning with s + consonant or z.

Lo scherzo 

(The joke)

• Il is used before masculine nouns beginning with all other consonants.

Il giorno

(The day)

• L’ is used before masculine or feminine nouns beginning with a vowel.

L'uomo

(The man)

L'eternità

(The eternity)

• La is used before feminine nouns beginning with any consonant.

La nuova amica

(The new girlfriend)

These are the plural forms of the definitive articles

SINGULAR	PLURAL
LO, L’ (MALE FORM)	GLI
IL	I
LA, L’ (FEMALE FORM)	LE

  

Gli italiani

(The italians)

I Japonese

(The Japanese)

Le zie

(The aunts)

I numeri (11-20)

Buongiorno 

Today we are going to continue studying the Italian cardinal numbers from 11 to 20:

11- Undici

12- Dodici

13- Tredici

14- Quattordici

15- Quindici

16- Sedici

17- Diciassette 

18- Diciotto

19- Diciannove

20- Venti

After these, the rest of the numbers will be so much easier to learn because they are just a combination of the past lessons on numbers

Gli articoli indeterminativi

Today we are going to study “Gli Articoli indeterminativi” (The Indefinitive articles) in Italian.

Indefinitive articles are used to name things or persons and to introduce them in a conversation. 

The Indefinitive articles in Italian are:

ITALIAN	ENGLISH
UN/ UNO	A/ AN (male)
UNA	A/ AN (female)
UN’	A/ AN (female starting with a vowel)

If you are using a female noun you have to use “Una” or “Un’” when the noun starts with a vowel.  Otherwise, you use “Un” or “Uno”.  In the following lessons we are going to study how to know if a noun is male or female in Italian.

We have to use “Uno” if the following noun starts with z or s + consonant.  For the rest of the male nouns, we use “Un”

UNO ZIO (An uncle)

UNO STADIO (A Stadium)

We use una or un with an apostrophe when the female noun starts with a vowel:

UNA BICICLETTA (A bike)

UN’OCCASIONE (An occasion)

We need to use the plural partitives as the plural form for the Indefinitive articles:

SINGULAR	PLURAL
UN	DEI
UNO	DEGLI
UNA – UN’	DELLE

UN LIBRO

(A BOOK)

DEI LIBRI

(SOME BOOKS)

UNO ZIO

(AN UNCLE)

DEGLI ZII

(SOME UNCLES)

UNA BICICLETTA

(A BIKE)

DELLE BICICLETTE

(SOME BIKES)
