A shopping list
MIG 1.3.3, 11.6 Partitive article del, dei, etc.
Marco, one of the English students, is staying with an Italian family while on placement. Since he doesn’t have to be at work until 10.00 on his first day, his landlady, signora Giuliani, gives him a shopping list and asks him to get some shopping for her at the fruttivendolo and the salumeria, before he goes to work. Marco leaves her a message telling her what he managed to get.
Here is the original shopping list on which Marco has crossed off the items he has managed to buy:
DA COMPRARE
Spinaci
fontina 2 etti
melanzane
parmigiano 300 gr
pomodori
yogurt
carciofi
prosciutto di Parma 100gr
asparagi
zucchine
peperoni rossi
insalata
Here is the beginning of the message that Marco leaves his landlady. Complete the message listing the items crossed off the shopping list. Make sure you include the correct form of dei, delle, etc.
Cara signora Giuliani,
Vado in ufficio. Ho comprato quasi tutto, mancano i pomodori (non erano buoni) e i peperoni rossi (c’erano solo quelli verdi). Alla salumeria non c’era il prosciutto di Parma, ma ho preso tutto il resto cioè delle melanzane, . . .
. . .
. . .
Il, la – to use or not to use?
MIG 1.3.5 Definite article
Often Italian uses the definite article (il, la, etc.) where English doesn’t put it in. In these exercises try and decide whether to use it or omit it. We have left some spaces just in case! (In the last few sentences 15–20, you will also need a preposition and may have to make some changes.)
