Ciao!

In this episode we'll look at the adjective "bello", "beautiful", and how the endings follow the pattern of the specific article!

:)

...

"bello" comes before the noun (it's "on the list"), and follows the pattern of the specific article. (il,lo,la,l' - i,gli,le).

Ex:

il giorno - il bel giorno

lo zio - il bello zio

l'amico - il bell'amico

la donna - la bella donna

l'anima - la bell'anima

i libri - i bei libri

gli alberi - i begli alberi

le cattedrali - le belle cattedrali

Try:

the beautiful book

the beautiful sister

the beautiful studio

the beautiful tree

the beautiful appartments

the beautiful boys/guys

the beautiful girls

the beautiful sports

Sentences:

We have beautiful weather

We have beautiful days

They have a beautiful studio

You (plural) have beautiful apartments

Note!

If "bello" is after the noun, f.ex. with a modifier - it follows the standard ending: "bello", "bella", "belli", "belle".

Try:

the very beautiful book

the very beautiful studio

the very beautiful appartments

the very beautiful houses

Sum up:

"bello" - when in front, endings follow pattern of specific articles, both sing./plural.

When after; standard endings.

Excellent work!

😊
