✕Common Mistakes
Porta i risultati di gli ultimi esami.
‘di gli’ must contract to *degli*; using *di gli* is ungrammatical.
Lui porta i risultati degli ultimi esami.
If you intend a statement rather than a command, you need the third‑person singular present: *Porta* → *Porta* (he/she brings) vs. *Porti* (subjunctive) – but the imperative is the correct form for a request.
Porta i risultati dell'ultimi esami.
The article *dell'* contracts with a singular noun; with the plural *ultimi esami* you need *degli*.

Cultural Tip
In Italian schools, teachers often ask students to ‘portare’ (bring) written documents, such as exam results, to class. The imperative form is common in informal or semi‑formal contexts; for a more formal request you could say *La prego di portare i risultati…*.
