In this video lesson I want to talk about a very common Italian adjective that we hear and use quite often here in everyday language… I’m talking about the adjective BELLO which means beautiful!

This widely used and sometimes overused adjective can be a little bit tricky because it makes a little change depending if you have to match it to a feminine a masculine a singular or plural noun.

Hmmm… that’s confusing! Don’t worry let’s look at it together and let's try to understand how to remember these changes. You can also download a little info card with all this information by looking at the link below this video! This can be helpful to quickly review the lesson and remember the concepts!

 Singular masculine forms:

• che bel maglione 
• che bello zaino
• che bell’ombrello

As you see the ending of the adjective BELLO changes… does that change look familiar to you? look again…

• BEL maglione
• BELLO zaino
• BELL’ombrello…

This should remind you of the rules of the definite article! The exact same rules do apply in this case too! if you need to review those rule please check the link below this video!

Plural masculine form

• che bei jeans
• che begli occhiali o che begli stivali

Singular feminine form: 

• che bella borsa

So the trick to remembering the changes is to treat it just like the definite article in Italian. If you remember that you are half way there!
