Some simple Italian questions Hi, I have been learning Italian for a week strictly using Pimsleur. I am now using 'Teach Yourself' in order to learn how to say the same thing different ways. However, it doesn't explain the difference: What is the difference between Arrivederci and Arrivederla? Also, what is the difference between bambino and ragazzo? If I say the sentence, "Questo e nostro figlio," do I add "il" making it "Questo e il nostro figlio"? Is one correct or does it not make a difference? I look forward to asking more questions. Thanks for any help.

Bambino = is a child Ragazzo= boy/guy "Questo è mio figlio" = tu non hai bisogno di mettere l'articolo, perché si parla sulla famiglia "Questo è il mio libro" , in questi casi sì (quando non è famiglia) devi mettere l'articolo

With possessive adjective (MIO, SUO, etc) we always put the article before: La mia casa, il mio libro, i miei gatti, le mie macchine. EXCEPTION is the family roles in SINGULAR. BUT Family names in plural have the article: Mio padre, mia madre Mio figlio, mia figlia, i miei figli, le mie figlie mio fratello, i miei fratelli mio nonno, i miei nonni mia cugina, le mie cugine NOTE: we say: MIO MARITO, but IL MIO FIDANZATO and I hear very frequently saying La mia mamma, Il mio papà, especially by children, in my opinion it is commonly accepted.

Arrivederci and arrviderla are both formal. Arrivederla is more formal than arrivederci, but it is also less used. Bambino is a child, ragazzo is a boy When you talk about your family you musten't use the article before the possessive adjective. "il mio papà" is wrong. You say "mio papà". In the other case, you use the article: "il mio libro, la mia casa, le mie biciclette". This is the rule. Sometime, italians say "il mio papà, il mio figlio, la mia mamma", but it's grammatically wrong.
