PLURALE esercizi 1,2,3,4,5

 
TASK 7:      VIDEO Title:    your Italian name and due date in italiano.  URL OF YOUR PLAYLIST

RECORD:   nome, data completa in italiano e ORA (time)

2)  in inglese explain the GENERAL rule governing the use of POSSESSIVES, and the exception with nouns related to relatives.

3) List at least 10 one-word objects around you in the room where you are doing the recording.

Recite the list pronouncing the names of the objects first in italiano, then the translation in inglese. Repeat the list with the INDEFINITE article.
Repeat the list with the same objects in the plural form.

4)  This is challenging and requires time and attention.

 CHOOSE 5 of the objects in you list and say what each one is useful for.  See model below.

MODELLO:  useful for   - UTILE PER      The sentence will be like:   The hammer is  useful to break things.        

 UTILE PER    followed by the infinitive form of the verb.

If you forgot what the INFINITIVE FORM is, go to my playlist and find the video with the explanation.

(Only if you are sure, go ahead and add more word after the infinitive verb.)

YOUR SENTENCES MUST MAKE SENSE.
