Common Mistakes

  • Che piani scegli?

    ‘Che’ is used for singular nouns; with a plural noun you need ‘Quali’.

  • Quali piani scegliere?

    The infinitive ‘scegliere’ cannot be used in a direct question; you need the conjugated form ‘scegli’.

  • Quali piani scegliate?

    ‘Scegliate’ is the 2nd person plural; use ‘scegli’ when speaking to one person informally.

Alternatives

  • Che piani preferisci?

    Which plans do you prefer?

  • Quali opzioni scegli?

    Which options do you choose?

  • Quali piani vuoi?

    Which plans do you want?

Cultural Tip

In Italian, ‘piano’ can also mean ‘floor’ of a building, so make sure the context is clear (e.g., ‘piano di studi’ for study plan). The verb form ‘scegli’ is informal; with strangers or in a professional setting you would use the formal ‘sceglie’ (Lei) or the plural ‘scegliete’ (voi).
