Questions & Answers about Metto alcuni prodotti e lo scontrino nel sacchetto.
Why is it alcuni prodotti instead of qualche prodotti?
When you want to say "some", you can use alcuni (or alcune for feminine words), but it must be followed by a plural noun like prodotti. If you want to use qualche, the rule is that it must be followed by a singular noun: qualche prodotto. Both alcuni prodotti and qualche prodotto mean exactly the same thing: "some products"!
