In Italian we skip the subject IT before a verb. There is an equivalent but nobody bothers to use it.
So, when we want to say that something IS, we simply write << e' >>.
Esempio: it's beautiful> e' bello it's ugly > e' brutto
Bello and brutto are adjectives.
YOUR TASK:
write ONE common expression in English, like "It's interesting" and, next to it, the Italian translation.
The expression must be made of <<it's>> + an adjective.
Look up the translation in a dictionary (wordreference.com).
CHOOSE ONLY ADJECTIVES that look the same in English and Italian.
ESEMPIO: you want to say "it's interesting"
<Interesting> in italiano is <interessante>. The two words are very similar. OK.
However, if you want to say "it's hard",
<hard> in italiano is <duro>. Completely different. Skip <hard> and find something else.
WORDS that look alike in two languages are called COGNATES. Here we are focusing on ADJECTIVES.
