illustrated throughout in both parts of the book.Here are just a few points tolook out for:Noun groupNoun+adjectiveUnlike English where the adjective+noun order is rigidly fixed, in Italian theorder is more flexible.We can say either:adjective+nounun grande giardinoa big gardenornoun+adjectiveun giardino grandea big gardenThe position of the adjective can make a difference in emphasis or even inmeaning.This is fully illustrated in 1.4.5.Sentence orderSubject verbEnglish learners tend to translate sentences directly from English into Italian.InItalian too, the sentence can have the order subjectverb:462 APPENDIX IVSubject VerbGianni ha chiamato.Gianni called.Il postino arrivato.The postman's arrived.But it is equally possible to reverse the order, to give verbsubject:Verb SubjectHa chiamato Gianni.Gianni called. arrivato il postino.The postman's arrived.Often the `normal' order is reversed or altered in order to emphasize who carriedout the action:Chi ha mangiato tutti i cioccolatini?Who ate all the chocolates?Verb SubjectLi ha mangiati Sonia.Sonia ate them.But in the first examples above, no particular emphasis is given to the subject.Itmight just as well be the dustman who has called, or someone else who hastelephoned.In exclamative sentences, using che or come, the subject usually has to followthe verb:Com' bella la tua casa!How lovely your house is!Che begli occhi (che) ha quel bambino!What lovely eyes that child has!Similarly, in interrogative sentences, the subject often comes after the verb:Finiranno mai questo libro Franco e Anna?Will Franco and Anna ever finish this book?APPENDIX IV 463And it has to come after the verb when the interrogative sentence is introducedby interrogative words such as che cosa, come, quando, dove, quanto, quale,chi:Quando finiranno il progetto di ricerche i nostri colleghi?When will our colleagues finish their research project?Subject verb objectWhen there is a noun direct object, the normal sentence order is subjectverb object:Subject Verb ObjectGianni vedr la sua amica stasera.Gianni will see his friend tonight.Again, when we want to place emphasis on the object (in this case la suaamica), the normal order can be changed, so that the object is placed first in thesentence:Object Subject VerbLa sua amica Gianni la vedr stasera.Gianni will see his friend tonight.(literally: His friend, Gianni, will see her tonight.)When we place the object first, we add a further direct object before the verbin the form of a direct object pronoun (lo, la, li, le)
