Corso di italiano con Daniela - Comparativo - Part 1

Difficulty: difficulty - Beginner Beginner

Italy

In this lesson we start looking at the comparative forms of adjectives. Unlike English, where we have a dedicated comparative and superlative form, Italian makes use of adverbs più "more" or meno "less" and the prepositions or conjunctions di (of, than) or che (than, that) in addition to the adjective itself. Daniela shows us how this works.
