✕Common Mistakes

  • Numero di dispositivi connessa.

    The adjective must agree with the masculine plural noun 'dispositivi', so use 'connessi' not 'connessa'.

  • Numero di i dispositivi connessi.

    Italian does not contract the preposition di with the definite article; you should say 'di dispositivi' without an article.

  • Numero di dispositivo connesso.

    Singular 'dispositivo' would change the meaning; the phrase refers to a count, so keep the plural.

↔Alternatives

  • Quantità di dispositivi collegati.

    Quantity of linked devices.

  • Totale dei dispositivi connessi.

    Total of connected devices.

  • Numero di apparecchi connessi.

Cultural Tip

In Italian tech jargon both 'connessi' and 'collegati' are acceptable, but 'connessi' is slightly more common when referring to network connectivity, while 'collegati' can also imply a physical cable connection. Keep the adjective in the masculine plural to match 'dispositivi'.
