When is "Gli" used? Only with masculine?

[wgsteere]

"Gli" is the plural form of the masculine definite article "lo." Lo, l' and Gli are used only when the noun the definite article is modifying starts with the sound of "s impura (s + consonant), (lo Stato), z (lo zio), gn (lo gnomo), sc (lo sciocco), pn (lo pneumatico), ps (lo psicologo), x (lo xilofono), and with i semiconsonantica (semivowel i) (lo iodio)." — http://italian.about.com/od/grammar/a/italian-definite-articles-il-lo.htm

Why are we using bevono instead of beve?

[Alla154127]

If the root is "Bev" then:
Bev-o ending is used for I
Bev-i ending is used for you
Bev-e ending is used for she/he/it
Bev-iamo ending is used for we
Bev-ete ending is used for you all
Bev-ono endinf is uaes for they

Hipe this helped

[sonsime]

Its plural, I think so

[Philly9795]

I feel spanish is a little easier noticing plural

[IchJeI]

I understand 'I ragazzi' but you use ''le'' ragazze'? is 'le' pluriel and feminin?

[Viaggiatore]

Yes. "Le ragazze" is feminine plural. http://www.oneworlditaliano.com/english/italian-grammar/italian-definite-articles.htm

It's "Bevono il latte" and I can confirm couse I'm italian

[RichardE.G]

How do you tell when to use "latte" or "il latte"?

[Nuala180347]

I'm sorry, I am very tired tonight, I will try again tomorrow. I am enjoying the course, as I am going to Italy in a few months.

[ruano91]

When do you use "loro bevono" instead of "bevono"?

[ziggKogg]

You can use both, it isn't necessary to use "loro".

[bigbeno37]

You see, 'bevono' means they drink. Loro bevono really means they they drink

[Viaggiatore]

"loro bevono" means "they drink" but the "loro" is redundant and usually unnecessary.

[Viaggiatore]

If you have a subject, le ragazze, adding loro also would be confusing.

[sean24t]

i thought le was plural for masculine

[Viaggiatore]

Nope.

[dhanishry]

Can you use bambine for girls?

[smeagol232]

That would be for very young children or babies.

[Hallie423705]

I just did two spaces..... -_-

[haifa244985]

I came here after learning french and i thought le is masculine and la is feminine in italian too
