@@ItalianTeacherValentina I do have a question though. If we were to say “questo è il nostro cane”. And if you wanted to clarify if it’s female, would you be able to say “la nostra cane”?

@ItalianTeacherValentina 2 жыл бұрын

@@Bramz26. Una buona domanda! You could say "la nostra cagna", as "cagna" is techically the noun for "female dog". But "cagna" is not very much used as it can also be an offensive or bad word (when used for humans". So we usually say "il cane" for both female and male dogs, and then we specify "è una femmina" (it's a female) or "è un maschio" (it's a male) if needed.

Salve Valentina, I have just started to learn Italian and I love your videos! I am also listening to an audio book, were I just finished the possessive adjective session. When practicing, one combination got me a bit confused, and I hope you can help me. I was asked to translate "my car" using the word "auto" in Italian. Thinking "auto" was a masculine noun, I translated the sentence to "l' mio auto" but I see that my use of the article l' is wrong in this sentence.When given the answer it was "la mia auto". And if I am guessing, the article changed to la, because we can't use l'. But is it correct that the possesive adjective changes to feminine as well? Are there specific rules for possesive adjective when the noun start with a vowel? (My first language is Norwegian, so I apologise for any misspelling or other errors).

@ItalianTeacherValentina Жыл бұрын

Ciao Elisabeth! Yours is a great question. First of all, the exercise was a tricky one, since auto, despite ending in "o" is a feminine noun. Why? Because is the abbreviation of "automobile", which is the complete word for car, and is feminine. So the article needed to be feminine because the noun is feminine. As for the article l', it can be used with both masculine and feminine nouns, but they need to start with a vowel. So if you just needed to say "the car", "l'automobile" would be correct. But since you are adding "my" and so the word next to the article begins with a consonant ("mia") you need to swich to "la". Hope this helps! If you need further help with articles (they can be confusing!), I've recorded a 1-hour class on them, with plenty of explanations and examples.

@ItalianTeacherValentina 3 жыл бұрын

Ahah! Ok, è il mio turno! :D 1) "Mia mamma" is used when you want to say "my mother". "Mamma mia" is an expression, similar to "Oh my God". 2) Usually, when we put the possessive adjective after the noun, is to give it more emphasis, to make a point, like for example when you are quarreling with someone and you want to really make a point that it is YOUR house, not theirs. Hope this helps!

How to form italian sentences. Is there any pattern or rules to follow. My mistake always is on correct placement of words in a sentence. In Your tutorial video on possessives I knew now but how about this sentence, Ho un' impress Internet. Why impress goes before internet. When in English sentence construction it is I have Internet business. The internet goes before business. I thought the same placement is accepted in italian. If to follow the English into italian, it is Ho un' internet impresa but not accepted. My difficulty in any Italian sentence formation which is confusing to me.

@lkanzenbach 9 ай бұрын

I have a question, can you explain why an article is needed in Italian when in English it is not. For example in "la mia casa". But in English you would just have "my house" without the article. It would really be helpful to get a clear explanation on this. "Grazie mille".

@ItalianTeacherValentina 9 ай бұрын

As I was saying in my reply to your other comment, the general rule is that we do use the article all the time, even with possessive adjectives. So we just say "the my house" literally. It's just a difference between the two languages. There are some exceptions, one of which has to specifically do with possessive adjectives and I talk about it (with examples) here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qZd9aqyCt8m0Y6c.html Hope this helps!
