Common Mistakes

  • anche inglese è divertente

    Language names need the definite article; omit the article makes the sentence sound ungrammatical.

  • Anche l'inglese è divertiti

    The adjective must agree in gender and number with the noun; *divertiti* is the masculine plural form, not appropriate here.

  • Anche l'inglese divertente è

    The verb *essere* must be placed between the subject and the adjective; moving it to the end breaks the normal word order.

Alternatives

  • L'inglese è divertente anche.

    English is fun also.

  • Studiare l'inglese è divertente.

    Studying English is fun.

  • L'inglese è altrettanto divertente.

    English is equally fun.

Cultural Tip

In Italian, language names are treated as regular nouns and always take the definite article (il, la, l'). The adverb *anche* normally precedes the noun phrase it modifies. Avoid placing *anche* after the verb, which can sound unnatural.
