"Gli portiamo una bottiglia di vino."

Translation: We bring him a bottle of wine.

[nictheman]

So "gli" in the indirect pronoun sense can refer to either "him" or "them"? Is that correct?

[mikebelyaev]

If I understand it correctly it can refer to "him", "them (masculin)", "them (feminin)". You can find a good explanation here: http://www.cyberitalian.com/en/html/gra_prpr.html

Gli portiamo una bottiglia di vino ==> we bring him a bottle of wine

what is the action/verb?
portiamo = (we) bring, verb
who does the action?
(noi) = we, subject
what/who does the subject action (what does we bring) ?
una bottiglia di vino = a bottle of wine, direct object
to whom/what does the subject action the direct object (to whom do we bring a bottle of wine)
gli = (to) him, indirect object.

To him we bring a bottle of wine ==> we bring a bottle of wine to him or we bring him a bottle of wine

It was impossible to tell "gli" at the beginning of the sentence. It sounded like "vi"

[Chris123456]

Yes - I heard it as "Vi"

[luisettajack]

"gli" could also be to them or them?

Why can't it be, "We carry to him a bottle of wine"?

[ScoutsManyZZZ]

We carry to him a bottle of wine just sounds like bad English.

[D.Chatzis]

I wrote "We bring them a bottle of wine" and it was correct.

[CharlineSu1]

It can also be an imperative, "Let's bring them a bottle of wine."

The task was - Type what you here - and silence with a 'helpful' notice 'can't listen now', but no option to continue, so I types several question marks and got the 'right answer' to the silence :-)

[LifeLearn1]

I was not allowed to finish the lesson without the right answer to the silence - yes, i was given the same task at the end - with 'can't listen now' - it's good that I've written down the right answer' to my ?????
If it happens to you - write down the 'right answer' to 'can't listen now' - and it will be accepted

What happen to the pronoun where is it??
