"Her socks are gray."

Translation: Le sue calze sono grigie.

[N1ckn1ck]

Plus, calzo means more like stocking. Calzino is more used for "sock".

[Anne409117]

The dictionary says la calza = stocking, il calzino = sock. Please comment.

[Marianna88226]

When is grigie vs grigio?

[agathabroomfield]

please can you explain when one would use "le sue" or "I suoi"

[N1ckn1ck]

Even if it is a girl (her) you still side with the gender and quantity of the noun.... which in this example (socks) is masculine and plural.

[regsur]

the noun 'sock' is masculine. It's only feminine if it's a knee sock. The sentence says, 'sock, not knee sock. The posessive takes the gender of that which is posessed, not the posessor.

[dreititita]

Sometimes the gender of some nouns change in other languages...

[Powerstaffo]

Calzetti e calzini sono la stessa cosa, siamo sicuri che il corso è stato creato da un madrelingua italiano?

[cathy977476]

When the comments are in Italian, those still learning have no idea what was said!!!

[Pbomalley]

I suoi calzini? No good?

[alo17]

I thought sue was masculine? Can someone explain?

[ZuMako8_Momo]

No, it's feminine. It follows almost all the same endings as the articles. «il, lo, i, gli» are masculine articles, so the masculine possessives are «il suo, i suoi». The feminine articles are «la, le», so the feminine possessives are «la sua, le sue».
