Questions & Answers about Stiamo a Venezia per il fine settimana.
Why does the sentence use a Venezia instead of in Venezia?
In Italian, you always use the preposition a (meaning "in" or "to") before the names of cities and towns. You only use in for countries, regions, and large islands. Since Venice is a city, it has to be a Venezia.
Why is the verb stiamo used here instead of siamo?
The word fine (end) is usually feminine. Why does it use the masculine article il here?
