Ciao Jane and Massimo,

Grazie for another great episode. I need help understanding the supplementary statement…”Hai scritto a tuo zio? Si, gli ho scritto. Isn’t gli plural, but the question is singular “your uncle.”

Grazie,
Canice

I love the way you explain the pronouns on this episode and the one before - I’ve struggled forever with pronouns - now it’s clear — love it!!!

Canice, “gli” is actually singular but also used in place of the plural “loro”. Think to the sentence as “ho scritto a lui” — “a lui = gli”. See the PDF transcript and all the extra examples provided on the Learning Center.

Yes it is correct - mi dia un biglietto (the verb dare is irregular)
