L'anagramma rivela la sequenza.

Because Italian usually shortens lo or la before a word beginning with a vowel.

Here, anagramma starts with a-, so the article is elided:

• l'anagramma = the anagram

You do not say il anagramma.

A useful thing to notice is that anagramma is a masculine singular noun, so its full article would be lo in this case, which becomes l' before a vowel.

Anagramma is masculine, even though it ends in -a.

That may look surprising, because many Italian nouns ending in -a are feminine. But some nouns of Greek origin are masculine, including words like:

• il problema
• il sistema
• il tema
• l'anagramma

So you should learn anagramma together with its article:

• l'anagramma = singular
• gli anagrammi = plural

Rivela is the third-person singular present tense of rivelare.

So:

• io rivelo = I reveal
• tu riveli = you reveal
• lui/lei rivela = he/she reveals

In this sentence, the subject is l'anagramma, which is singular, so rivela is the correct form.

Because sequenza is a feminine singular noun.

So its definite article is la:

• la sequenza = the sequence

This contrasts with l'anagramma, which is masculine.

In this sentence, the normal Italian word order helps:

• L'anagramma = subject
• rivela = verb
• la sequenza = direct object

So the structure is:

• The anagram reveals the sequence

Italian often uses the same basic order as English: subject + verb + object.

Also, the verb form rivela agrees with l'anagramma, not with la sequenza, which is another clue that l'anagramma is the subject.

Yes, Italian often drops subject pronouns like it, he, or she, but not usually the noun itself if you need to say what is doing the action.

So you would not normally say just:

• Rivela la sequenza

unless the context already makes it clear what reveals the sequence.

Since l'anagramma is important information here, it is stated explicitly.

A simple pronunciation guide is:

• L'anagramma ≈ la-na-GRAM-ma
• rivela ≈ ree-VEH-la
• la sequenza ≈ la se-KWEN-tsa

A few helpful notes:

• The l' links directly to the next word.
• In anagramma, the stress is on gram.
• In sequenza, qu sounds like kw.

Because la sequenza is the direct object of rivela.

The verb rivelare directly takes what is revealed:

• rivelare qualcosa = to reveal something

So:

• L'anagramma rivela la sequenza

There is no need for a preposition like a or di here.

Yes, possibly. Svelare and rivelare can both mean to reveal, depending on context.

However, rivelare is a very standard, neutral choice.
Svelare can sometimes feel a little more like unveil, disclose, or uncover.

So L'anagramma rivela la sequenza is perfectly natural.

The plural would be:

• Gli anagrammi rivelano le sequenze.

Changes:

• l'anagramma → gli anagrammi
• rivela → rivelano
• la sequenza → le sequenze

So everything agrees in number.

Not exactly.

In Italian, the apostrophe here marks elision: the vowel of the article is dropped before another vowel.

So:

• lo anagramma → l'anagramma

This is not quite the same as English contractions like don't or it's, which combine words in different ways.

In Italian, this kind of apostrophe is very common with articles before vowels:

• l'amico
• l'idea
• l'anagramma
