"She writes books."

Translation: Lei scrive libri.

[CarissaEfford]

why did libri not need to article before it?

[JohnG.3]

I had the same question. I would have guessed "Lei scrive dei libri"

[supu1]

"Lei scrive libri", "lei scrive dei libri" are both correct. The latter could be translated as "she writes some books" while the former "she writes books"

[Tina692216]

Why is it Lei scrive libri and not Lei scrive i libri?

[Lcroghan]

Regarding the incorrect answer, does "cats" translate as "gatte" or "gatti"? Or both?

[susan0408]

Thanks, I was also confused about the singular and the plural forms of the nouns.

Why isn't “scrive” "scriva" here given the pronoun "lei"??

[StanKing1]

Verbs don't change for gender of the subject. It's "scrive" whether a boy or a girl is doing the writing.
