"il dolce sul piatto è il nostro" (reported): a cake can be "una torta" or more generally "un dolce" https://www.wordreference.com/enit/cake
I am totally, totally confused by this! It makes no sense to me at all, the nostrA/nostrE word endings. Having had a stroke, I do have difficulty in understanding some things but I'd been doing really well until this section. I don't want to give up but my head feels ready to explode! Can anyone help with a simple 'rule' for this, that might be easier for me to understand?
