"Prendi un foglio e scrivi!"

[EstelleTweedie]

Take a page ...???

[eterryd]

I agree that "a page" should be correct.

[bill_oneill51]

"a paper" is also a good translation

[grasshopher]

Although I think it probably should be accepted to make translation easier, as a native english speaker I can say that "take a paper and write" sounds wrong and awkward. Which is probably why it was not originally accepted as valid.

[ZakkGriffi]

Ironically, "Take a paper and read" actually works, but that's because 'a paper' can mean a scientific paper (a journal article).

[ZakkGriffi]

I don't think "a paper" is acceptable in English.

I'd say "Take some paper", even to mean a single sheet, although it's probably not an appropriate translation here, as 'some' introduces complications that are avoided when using 'a piece/sheet of'.

Compare with 'water':

• "Take some water" -- "Take some paper"
• "Take a bottle of water" -- "Take a sheet/piece of paper"
• But not: "Take a water" or "Take a paper"

[MarilynTaf1]

Sheet of paper is not accepted?

[septiros]

Why imperative does not always have the same ending of the conjugated verb?
Trovare - Trovate
Venire - Venga
Prendere - Prendi

[AnnaGuaGua]

oh come on! "Take a paper and write" is perfectly acceptable! Reported 2/12/17

[nekogaijin]

Sometimes prendi is translated as BRING sometimes as TAKE. Bring marked wrong in this case?

[VladimirCo13]

I can't take a paper?
