Questions & Answers about Il sorriso di mio nipote rende anche le giornate piovose più luminose.
Why does nipote sometimes mean nephew and sometimes grandchild?
In Italian, nipote can refer to either a nephew, niece, or a grandchild, and the meaning depends on context. Often, to make it clearer, Italians can say mio nipote maschio ("my nephew") or mio nipote femmina ("my niece"), or specify nipote di mio figlio (grandchild of my son/daughter). In this sentence, it's understood that we're talking about a nephew.
Why is it di mio nipote and not del mio nipote?

Why is anche placed after rende?
