POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVES

DEMONSTRATIVES

POSSESSIVE CASE - SAXON GENITIVE

PAY ATTENTION, PLEASE!

 
 
1. The boys bikes
2. The children’s bikes
    
A. When we have a plural form ending in s, we add only the apostrophe, as in the first example. In the second  example,children is an irregular plural, but it does not end in s, so we add the 's .

 

 
 
B. When we have two subjects in the sentence, we add 's only to the last subject:
 
Sara is  Peter and Helen 's friend
 
 
 
C. When the possessor's name ends with s, we use 's:
 
 
James's dog

INDEFINITE ARTICLES A/AN

In Italian the Indefinite articles A/AN translate "UN-UNO-UNA-UN'-

We can use them to talk about anything we do not want to quantify.

We use the article A before words beginning with a consonant: A PEN. We use the article AN before words beginning with a vowel: AN APPLE.

 

PAY ATTENTION, PLZ!

 

When the H is silent we use AN, when the sound is IU we use A.

EXAMPLES:

 

AN HOUR

 

A UNIVERSITY

 

 DEFINITE ARTICLES

In English is "THE"

In Italian THE translates the articles IL-LO-LA- I-GLI-LE

Example:THE APPLE-LA MELA

THE APPLES-LE MELE

Telling the time

A. twenty-six past ten

B. midday/noon

C. ten to one

  • - make requests – CAN I HAVE YOUR PEN, PLEASE?;
  • - ask for or give permission – CAN I GO TO THE TOILET, PLEASE?
  • YES, YOU CAN/ NO, YOU CAN’T.

Can è un verbo modale. Si usa per:

·         parlare di abilità – IO SO PARLARE CINESE.

·         fare delle richieste – POSSO AVERE LA TUA PENNA, PER FAVORE?

·         Chiedere o dare un permesso – POSSO ANDARE AL BAGNO, PER FAVORE? SI, PUOI./NO, NON PUOI.

MODALE SIGNIFICA CHE:

-      Il verbo CAN è invariabile.

-      E’ sempre seguito dal verbo in forma base.
