In the plural they are simply the plural of <em>un<\/em> (<em>un libro<\/em> to <em>dei libri<\/em>, equivalent to <em>alcuni libri<\/em>).

The difference is the job: here the combination does not mean &#8220;of the&#8221;, it means &#8220;some&#8221; or &#8220;any&#8221;. <em>Del pane<\/em> is &#8220;some bread&#8221;, <em>delle mele<\/em> is &#8220;some apples&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two clean ideas to hold. In the singular, the partitive marks an unspecified amount of something you cannot count (<em>del pane<\/em>, <em>dell&#8217;acqua<\/em>). In the plural, it is simply the missing plural of <em>un<\/em>: Italian has no plural of <em>un libro<\/em>, so it borrows <em>dei libri<\/em>. Everything else about the italian partitive articles follows from those two ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"form\">How to form the italian partitive articles: the seven shapes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Take <em>di<\/em> and merge it with the definite article exactly as you already do for <em>del, dello, della, dei, degli, delle<\/em>. The shape depends on the gender, number and first sound of the noun, the same rules as the definite article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Form<\/th><th>Use before<\/th><th>Example<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><em>del<\/em><\/td><td>masc. sing., consonant<\/td><td><em>del pane<\/em> (some bread)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><em>dello<\/em><\/td><td>masc. sing., s+cons \/ z \/ ps \/ gn<\/td><td><em>dello zucchero<\/em> (some sugar)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><em>dell&#8217;<\/em><\/td><td>sing., vowel<\/td><td><em>dell&#8217;acqua<\/em> (some water)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><em>della<\/em><\/td><td>fem. sing., consonant<\/td><td><em>della frutta<\/em> (some fruit)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><em>dei<\/em><\/td><td>masc. plural, consonant<\/td><td><em>dei libri<\/em> (some books)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><em>degli<\/em><\/td><td>masc. plural, vowel \/ s+cons \/ z<\/td><td><em>degli amici<\/em> (some friends)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><em>delle<\/em><\/td><td>feminine plural<\/td><td><em>delle mele<\/em> (some apples)<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can already pick between <em>il, lo, l&#8217;, la, i, gli, le<\/em>, you can already form the italian partitive articles: just put <em>di<\/em> in front and fuse. No new selection rule to learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"singular\">Singular: del means &#8220;un po&#8217; di&#8221;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the singular the partitive does for uncountable things what <em>un<\/em> does for countable ones: substances, food, abstract ideas. It marks an unspecified amount and can almost always be replaced by <em>un po&#8217; di<\/em> (&#8220;a bit of&#8221;).<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Vorrei <strong>del<\/strong> pane, per favore.<\/em><br>I would like some bread, please.<\/li>\n<li><em>C&#8217;\u00e8 <strong>dell&#8217;<\/strong>acqua nella bottiglia.<\/em><br>There is some water in the bottle.<\/li>\n<li><em>Caterina ha comprato <strong>dello<\/strong> zucchero al mercato.<\/em><br>Caterina bought some sugar at the market.<\/li>\n<li><em>Ho ricevuto <strong>del<\/strong> denaro, cio\u00e8 un po&#8217; di denaro.<\/em><br>I received some money, that is, a bit of money.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p>The singular of the italian partitive articles is not very frequent in speech, but it is always available and always understood. If <em>un po&#8217; di<\/em> fits the meaning, the singular partitive is correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"plural\">Plural: dei, degli, delle are the plural of un<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is where the italian partitive articles earn their keep. Italian has no plural of <em>un<\/em>: you cannot say <em>uni libri<\/em>. The plural partitive fills the gap, and it can be replaced by <em>alcuni<\/em> or <em>alcune<\/em> (&#8220;a few&#8221;).<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Ho un libro.<\/em> to <em>Ho <strong>dei<\/strong> libri.<\/em><br>I have a book. to I have some books.<\/li>\n<li><em>Sono arrivati <strong>degli<\/strong> amici di Pietro da Modena.<\/em><br>Some friends of Pietro arrived from Modena.<\/li>\n<li><em>Caterina ha portato <strong>delle<\/strong> mele e <strong>dei<\/strong> fiori.<\/em><br>Caterina brought some apples and some flowers.<\/li>\n<li><em>Ho incontrato <strong>delle<\/strong> amiche, cio\u00e8 alcune amiche.<\/em><br>I met some friends, that is, a few friends.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-focus-plural-15890\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<p>\ud83d\udd0d <strong>The one-line test.<\/strong> If &#8220;a few&#8221; or &#8220;some&#8221; fits the English, the plural italian partitive articles work and equal <em>alcuni \/ alcune<\/em>. If you mean a general category (&#8220;I sell flowers&#8221;, a profession), drop the article entirely. The partitive points at real things; the bare noun points at the concept.<\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"zero\">Partitive or bare noun: bevo del t\u00e8 vs bevo t\u00e8<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The italian partitive articles have a quiet rival: the bare noun with no article at all. Both are correct, and the choice is partly regional (the north leans partitive, the south leans bare), but there is a real meaning difference. The bare noun names the concept; the partitive points at actual amounts.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Bevo t\u00e8.<\/em><br>I drink tea. (a habit, the concept of tea-drinking)<\/li>\n<li><em>Bevo <strong>del<\/strong> t\u00e8.<\/em><br>I am drinking some tea. (an actual amount, right now)<\/li>\n<li><em>Dice bugie.<\/em><br>He tells lies. (he is a liar, in general)<\/li>\n<li><em>Dice <strong>delle<\/strong> bugie.<\/em><br>He is telling some lies. (specific lies, now)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p>One more push toward the partitive: when an adjective or a relative clause singles the noun out, Italian prefers a partitive article. <em>Qui vendono birra<\/em> (&#8220;they sell beer&#8221;, the activity) but <em>qui vendono della birra ottima<\/em> (&#8220;they sell some excellent beer&#8221;, a real kind). The italian partitive articles step in as soon as you describe the thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"not\">When you must not use the italian partitive articles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Three contexts where the italian partitive articles are wrong or strongly avoided, and the bare noun or <em>alcuni<\/em> takes over.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Negatives.<\/strong> <em>Non mangio pane.<\/em> not <em>non mangio del pane<\/em>.<br>I do not eat bread.<\/li>\n<li><strong>After senza.<\/strong> <em>Sono rimasta senza soldi.<\/em> not <em>senza dei soldi<\/em>.<br>I was left without money.<\/li>\n<li><strong>After di and da.<\/strong> <em>Ho bisogno di alcuni chiodi.<\/em> not <em>di dei chiodi<\/em>.<br>I need some nails. (use <em>alcuni<\/em>, never <em>di + partitive<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li><strong>After other prepositions it is discouraged.<\/strong> <em>Vado con alcuni colleghi<\/em> reads better than <em>con degli colleghi<\/em>.<br>I am going with some colleagues.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p>There is one nuance in negatives: if you are negating precisely the idea of &#8220;a certain quantity&#8221;, the partitive comes back, with stress. <em>Non ho delle fidanzate, ho solo una fidanzata<\/em> (&#8220;I do not have girlfriends plural, I have just one&#8221;). Outside that special emphasis, keep the bare noun after a negative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"complement\">Partitive article vs partitive complement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Do not confuse the italian partitive articles with the partitive complement, which also uses <em>di<\/em> but means &#8220;out of a group&#8221;. The article replaces <em>un<\/em> (&#8220;some, any&#8221;); the complement follows a quantity word and means &#8220;of them&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Ho comprato <strong>dei<\/strong> libri.<\/em><br>I bought some books. (partitive article = the plural of <em>un<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li><em>Tre <strong>dei<\/strong> libri sono di Calvino.<\/em><br>Three of the books are by Calvino. (partitive complement = out of the set)<\/li>\n<li><em>Un po&#8217; <strong>dei<\/strong> tuoi soldi mi basterebbe.<\/em><br>A bit of your money would be enough for me. (complement, after a quantity word)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p>Quick test: if the phrase answers &#8220;some what?&#8221;, it is the partitive article; if it answers &#8220;out of which group?&#8221;, it is the partitive complement. Only the first one is the topic of this guide on the italian partitive articles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is also a fronted cousin worth recognising. When you move a noun to the front for emphasis and echo it with the pronoun <em>ne<\/em>, Italian uses bare <em>di + noun<\/em>, not the full partitive: <em>di ragazze ne conosceva tante<\/em> (&#8220;girls, he knew so many&#8221;), <em>ce ne sono in giro, di ladri<\/em> (&#8220;there are thieves about&#8221;). This is not a different rule, just the partitive idea spread across the sentence; it pairs naturally with the italian partitive articles and with <em>ne<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em><strong>Di<\/strong> mele <strong>ne<\/strong> ho raccolte tante quest&#8217;anno.<\/em><br>Apples, I picked so many this year.<\/li>\n<li><em><strong>Di<\/strong> amici a Padova <strong>ne<\/strong> ho pochi.<\/em><br>Friends in Padua, I have few.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p>Read this fronted pattern as a stylistic option, common in speech, not as a replacement for the everyday italian partitive articles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"register\">North, south and formal style: the register of the partitive<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond the rules, the italian partitive articles carry a register and a regional flavour worth hearing. Northern speakers reach for the partitive more readily; southern speakers lean on the bare noun. Both are standard Italian, so a learner who masters the partitive will sound natural in the north and perfectly understood everywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Word order matters too. When the noun is the subject and sits before the verb, Italian strongly prefers the partitive: <em>dei fiori gialli crescevano tra i binari<\/em> (&#8220;yellow flowers were growing between the tracks&#8221;). The bare-noun version, <em>fiori gialli crescevano tra i binari<\/em>, is possible but reads as elevated, literary style. So the choice of the italian partitive articles also tells the listener something about how formal you are being.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em><strong>Del<\/strong> latte viene versato nel bicchiere.<\/em><br>Some milk is poured into the glass. (subject before verb, partitive preferred)<\/li>\n<li><em><strong>Dei<\/strong> turisti aspettavano davanti al duomo di Modena.<\/em><br>Some tourists were waiting in front of the Modena cathedral.<\/li>\n<li><em>Vendono <strong>della<\/strong> birra che ho assaggiato ieri.<\/em><br>They sell some beer that I tried yesterday. (a relative clause pulls the partitive in)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p>One practical takeaway: in writing and in careful speech, after prepositions other than the forbidden <em>di<\/em> and <em>da<\/em>, the partitive is still better replaced by <em>alcuni<\/em>. <em>Ho parlato con alcuni colleghi<\/em> beats <em>con dei colleghi<\/em> in a formal email, even though both are heard in conversation. The italian partitive articles are everyday tools; <em>alcuni<\/em> is the safer choice when the register rises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"cheat-sheet\">Cheat sheet: italian partitive articles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The whole system on one card.

The answers draw on classroom usage and on the Accademia della Crusca note on <a href=\"https:\/\/accademiadellacrusca.it\/it\/consulenza\/la-sequenza-preposizione--articolo-partitivo-si-pu\u00f2-usare-in-dei-casi-e-in-quali\/723\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">preposition plus partitive<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list \">\n<div id=\"faq-pa-1\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">What is the Italian partitive article?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>It is the preposition di fused with the definite article: del, dello, dell&#8217;, della, dei, degli, delle. It means some or any. In the singular it marks an unspecified amount of a mass noun (del pane, some bread). In the plural it works as the plural of the indefinite article un (un libro becomes dei libri).<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-pa-2\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">How do I form the partitive article?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Take di and merge it with the definite article, exactly as for the prepositional forms: del, dello, dell&#8217;, della, dei, degli, delle. The choice follows the same gender, number and sound rules as the definite article. Del pane, dello zucchero, dell&#8217;acqua, della frutta, dei libri, degli amici, delle mele.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-pa-3\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">What is the difference between bevo del te and bevo te?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Both are correct. Bevo te (bare noun) states the concept or habit of tea-drinking. Bevo del te (partitive) points at an actual amount of tea you are drinking now. The bare noun names the concept; the partitive points at real entities. The choice is also partly regional, north leaning partitive, south leaning bare.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-pa-4\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Is the partitive article the plural of un?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Yes. Italian has no plural of un, so the plural partitive fills the gap: un libro becomes dei libri, un&#8217;amica becomes delle amiche. The plural partitive can be replaced by alcuni or alcune (a few). It is the most common and most useful use of the partitive.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-pa-5\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">When must I not use the partitive article?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Three cases. After a negative, use the bare noun: non mangio pane, not non mangio del pane. After senza: sono rimasto senza soldi. After di and da, use alcuni instead: ho bisogno di alcuni chiodi, never di dei chiodi. After other prepositions the partitive is discouraged: con alcuni amici is better than con degli amici.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-pa-6\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Is the partitive article compulsory?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>No. It is almost always optional. Bevo del te and bevo te are both correct, with a fine difference in meaning. The bare noun is normal for general statements, professions and categories: vendo fiori (I am a flower seller), dico bugie (I am a liar). Use the partitive when you mean a real, specific amount.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-pa-7\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">What is the difference between the partitive article and the partitive complement?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>The partitive article replaces un and means some or any: ho comprato dei libri. The partitive complement follows a quantity word and means of a group: tre dei libri sono di Calvino, un po&#8217; dei tuoi soldi. Test: some what is the article; out of which group is the complement.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related\">Related guides<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Three guides that pair with the italian partitive articles, plus an institutional reference.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dante-learning.com\/eng\/italian-simple-prepositions\/\">Italian Simple Prepositions<\/a>: the di + article fusion behind the forms.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dante-learning.com\/eng\/italian-ci-ne-particles\/\">Ci and Ne in Italian<\/a>: the pronoun ne that replaces a partitive.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dante-learning.com\/eng\/italian-alcuni-alcune\/\">Italian Alcuni and Alcune<\/a>: the synonym of the plural partitive.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/accademiadellacrusca.it\/it\/consulenza\/la-sequenza-preposizione--articolo-partitivo-si-pu\u00f2-usare-in-dei-casi-e-in-quali\/723\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Accademia della Crusca: preposition plus partitive article<\/a>: institutional note.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ud83d\udd0d In short.
