"Lui ha pantaloni rossi."

Translation: He has red pants.

[Albrechtion]

Being Italian, the red is probably just spaghetti sauce.

[HetPyccnr]

Why are you learning Italian if you are Italian?

[SanctMinimalicen]

Well, that's ostentatious.

[chatee]

You have not seen my grandfather.

[cbx500]

Now, imagine matching those red pants with yellow shoes.

[KarenColle]

...but now his pants match hers!

[GregHullender]

I wonder why it is not "i pantaloni".

[RiccardoCa33]

It should be "i pantaloni"!!" Lui ha pantaloni rossi", without article, just sounds wrong (I'm italian)

[flaque8]

Me too! Can someone explain please?

[notyetawizard]

He just has some unspecified red pants; not THE red pants.
Could be any red pants.
No one even knows why he has them.

[GrnpcFTMarkRMOwl]

I don't think I've heard that kind of explanation here until now. That, of course, is key when everybody can see clearly that those generalized pants are, in fact, the color of passion.
On a more serious note, I just got zinged, because "rossa" is not "rosa", and just recalled that the famous historical figure was not "Barbarosa!"

[Pp3p]

They are specified. They are his. If you have something you owned it. You can't own any pants in the world.

[Nicole_Di_Kansas]

I dissagree, as a costume designer I have access plenty of clothes I don't own.

[nadjalench2011]

Posso dire "lui ha i pantaloni rossi"?

[RiccardoCa33]

Yes you can. You actually should... The given sentence sounds wrong to me (I'm italian)

[winter230548]

No, perchè (lui ha i pantaloni rossi) significherebbe che li indossa. Invece senza la "i" vuol dire che li ha ma, non li indossa in quel momento.

[TheBareBears]

What would "pink pants" be in Italian, then? I got this question wrong by saying "He has pink pants" instead of saying "He has red pants".

[KarenColle]

Lui ha pantaloni rosa. ROSA (pink) stays the same as an adjective, doesn't vary with the number and gender of the noun it modifies. 《:-)

[TheBareBears]

That makes so much sense now. Thanks!

[SauliusTheBlack]

except that it doesn't make sense that "rosa" doesn't change whereas every other color does --'

[TrishF3]

I'm so glad they accept "he has red trousers"! I used to blush over translation to "pants", not feeling the need to discuss underwear in English generally. A false friend between BE and AE, I'd probably translate "pants" as "mutande" or "slip".

[Helen471715]

I put in trousers and it said no it's "pants". Sometimes it's hard to double translate from Italian into English then on to American with candy and cookies etc too.

[Kit128p]

Do they actually mean trousers by pants? I was wondering this. So what are pants (underwear) in Italian?

[DaniellePoll]

Technically, American is not a language. It's an accent. They should learn to spell in English - which is a language.

[jude90]

chinese people believe red pants brought you a good luck :P

[Amrhilman]

Valentino rossi - red valentine? Vrooom..

[Jae633849]

Lui ha pantaloni rossi e le scarpe gialle!

[lobos333]

I wonder if he has a pair of red trousers that match his red pants?

[H.G.Stolk27]

Um... Does he perhaps have a knife in his pants?

[KonstaCamogli]

lui ha il proprio coltello .......... well that is what I can remember so far. And Una scimmia legge un libro.

[kickasspepe03]

whats the difference between rossi and rosse?

[RaduBunda]

I think it's masculine plural vs feminine plural.

[IvanGriffi]

what is the difference between "rossi and"rosse?

[RaduBunda]

Masculine vs feminine

[Sunshinesaway]

Never trust a man in red pants

[H.G.Stolk27]

Like Assassin's Creed?

[KGdcprXt]

I thought we were learning English not American English why does Duolingo persist in using American words ?

[Lachie387172]

So, what's the difference between red apples (mele rosse) and red pants (pantaloni rossi) ..?

[kinga9000]

Rosso//rossi... It is a guessing game. Please, more help with that....

[antonywalker]

"Trousers" is marked as incorrect.

[TedNagel1]

Why is the word slacks not accepted?

[SylviaArle1]

He has red TROUSERS, please! Unless you mean UNDERWEAR???

[StacyeL]

Why is "she has red pants" wrong???

[luna892935]

Because you wrote she.....it was he

[lHdU7]

How would he say he has pink pants? Sounds like it will be written the same no..?

[Elizabeth624544]

why not " he has red slacks " ?

[Diana127141]

That was a typo due my bad phone!

[LoScozzese]

Why is the word 'trousers' not acceptable? It is synonymous with 'pants'!
