"She works here now."

Translation: Lei lavora qui adesso.

[PIuretig]

i wrote "lei lavora adesso qui" and it was marked wrong. Can you not switch the two words place?

[ZuMako8_Momo]

You cannot on Duolingo. It also actually sounds a little awkward with «adesso» between the verb and «qui».

Why "lei lavora adesso qui" is wrong ?

[ZuMako8_Momo]

That is just a strange adverb placement in Italian. No Italian speaker would put «adesso» before «qui».

Ora and adesso what is the difference between them?

[ZuMako8_Momo]

They are interchangeable, like "now" and "at the moment" in English. It should be noted that «ora» also means "hour."

What is the difference between lì and qui ?

[Seresam]

qui= here
lì= there

[Nenuphar]

Thanks. English is not my first language and the difference between here and there is not clear in my head in the first place!

[Seresam]

"qui" is somewhere near the speaker, more or less "in this place". lì is "in that place"

[JessChrisP]

I have trouble knowing when to use "qui" or "qua." I've had situations where both could be used, or just one, could anyone explain it to me please?

[ZuMako8_Momo]

I learned in the school that they are generally interchangeable; however, I have read some comments here and there, and the general consensus is that «qua» is "in this general location where I am here" while «qui» is "in this exact spot by me here."

[AlexPitzen]

I think it's the opposite; "qui" is "exactly here", and "qua" is "in this general location"

[ZuMako8_Momo]

Ah, you're right. My apologies; I've been looking for this comment of mine
