Ciao! In this episode we'll look at the two genders for Italian nouns, and the three different endings "o", "a" and "e". :) .. In general, "o" is for masculine and "-a" is for feminine: il libro il ragazzo la casa la chitarra If a noun ends on "-e", it could be either feminine or masculine: il fiume il nome la notte la luce And some nouns on "-e" depends on the gender of the person it describes, for example: il cliente or la cliente = the customer/client il parente or la parente = the relative and you can guess for "cantante" - meaning singer!
So now you know how to find the gender of a noun, and when to look it up (most of the "-e" nouns). Excellent work! 😊
