Daniela continues to address the very sticky subject of possessive adjectives, and explains some very important rules. Little by little, you'll get it.

Marika explains how to form adjectives from nouns, by using various suffixes.

After having covered the possessive adjectives in the masculine and feminine singular, Daniela goes on to explain how the masculine plural works.

In fairy tales, good triumphs over evil in the end. This one's no exception.

Here's one of the most famous fairy tales of all, "Cinderella." The Italian, "La Cenerentola" comes from the noun la cenere (ash, ashes, cinder). See how much you can understand without the English subtitles!

Daniela continues with the possessive adjective, and gives examples of the masculine and feminine singular. Remember that, unlike English, Italian puts an article before the possessive adjective.

There are lots of ways to form compound nouns, and lots of different ways to form their plurals. Marika fills us in.

Being a fairy tale, there's a happy ending. Maybe you'll understand it even without the subtitles!

Just as in English, Italian has a great many compound nouns. Marika explains the different types. A proposito, this time she greets us a new way, saying buondì.
