✕Common Mistakes
La mia connessione Internet è molto buona?
‘Molto’ is an adverb that should precede the adjective, but the correct order is ‘molto buona’ only when ‘molto’ modifies the adjective directly; however, for ‘enough’ you need ‘abbastanza’, not ‘molto’.
La mia connessione Internet è buona abbastanza?
Adverbs like ‘abbastanza’ must come before the adjective they modify, not after it.
Il mio connessione Internet è abbastanza buona?
‘Connessione’ is feminine, so the possessive must be ‘mia’, not ‘mio’.

Cultural Tip
In Italy people often talk about ‘connessione’ rather than ‘velocità’ when they refer to the overall quality of the service. It’s common to ask friends or colleagues about their experience with a provider before signing a contract. Remember that ‘Internet’ is masculine in Italian, but when it follows a feminine noun like ‘connessione’, the adjective still agrees with the noun, not with ‘Internet’. Formal contexts may prefer ‘la connessione internet’ (lowercase ‘internet’), while informal speech often capitalises it.
