"L'italiano" means "the italian". "L'" is an abreviation of "il" (the definite article for male) or "la" (female). You abreviate like that when the word is singular. The plural is "i" (male) or "le" (female). But if the word is male and begins with a "z", "s" + consonant, "gn" or "ps", you must use "lo" (for singular) or "gli" (for plural). Like "l'alunno", "il padre", "lo zio", "lo studente", "lo psichiatra", "i padri", "gli alunni"... (sorry, my english is not that good... Hope you understand!)
