    Adjective must agree with the masculine noun *reparto*; use *giusto* not *giusta*.

  • Passo a te al reparto giusto.

    Indirect object pronoun comes before the verb, not after the preposition *a*.

  • Ti passo al reparto giusto a te.

    Redundant pronoun; the sentence already contains the indirect object.

Cultural Tip

In Italy it’s common for shop assistants, receptionists, or colleagues to offer a quick escort to the correct area. The informal *ti* signals friendliness; switch to the formal *le* when speaking to strangers, elders, or in a business setting. Also note that *reparto* can refer to a store aisle, a hospital ward, or any departmental division.
