Prepositions are trick but if you are talking about being in/at the fourth year at work/school or something like that you should use the preposition 'a', ~ to/in/at.
Nell'anno is used to say things like 'Rome in year 1838' = Roma nell'anno 1830 or 'In the year of the comet' = Nell'anno della cometa
If talking about school year or something equivalent i conpletely agree. However, if talking about a project or an illness or something one might be more inclined to say "I'm in the fourth year (of ...)"
Not exactly. "Sono" could be both "am" as in "I am" or "are" for the third person plural, as in "they are"
Io sono Tu sei Lei/lui รจ Noi siamo Voi siete Loro sono.
"I am on the fourth year" wasn't accepted. I figured it as on the 4th year of collage or sth. Would it be wrong ?
IN is correct. IN the fourth year.
Explanation: The fourth year is a mass of people and individuals go IN this mass of people.
Examples: I am IN the army. I am in the police. I am in the chess club.
If you are talking about levels, on a computer game for example, then is is AT. I'm AT level 7 of Call of Duty etc etc
"I'm AT fourth year" is completely incorrect. "I'm IN fourth year is better" however in practice English people most commonly will reply "I'm A fourth year"
AT! No! Agreed, that is the answer it suggested. For non-English speakers, "student" (or resident, etc.)is implied when you say "I'm a fourth year (student).
In American English I would say " I am IN the 4th year, or I changed to the 4th year math class....
translation makes no sense...year was not an option only grade. Yet I damn well know anno does not mean grade!!!! There is no doubt italian has a seperate word for grade and if we were talking about 4th graders they would use that word and not anno!!!!!
I am reading a book about an American family which is spending a year in Italy. The children are in school and they refer to grades as years. First year, third year, etc. That is the only reason I didn't get it wrong because of that book. It is called Il Bel Centro. I am really enjoying it, and learning some of the nuances of Italian I haven't learned yet from DL.
College is not so cut and dry these days as some ate going part-time, at nigjt, graduate degrees, planning to transfer ( which could change how ling you have to go)
Shouldn't "I'm in year four" also be accepted? It may not be a word-for-word translation, but I think it sounds right and has the same meaning.
I had no audio at all on this question. I am sorry to report it here but...
Again, I am not clairvoyant. These audio only questions have no audio at all.

This sentence is not about age. Age is expressed using the verb "avere" = "Ho quatro anni" meaning "I am 4 years old".
