Questions & Answers about Ogni pomeriggio mi alleno al parco.
Why is it ogni pomeriggio instead of ogni pomeriggi?
Could I say this using tutti instead of ogni?
Yes! But remember that tutti (all/every) needs a plural noun and a definite article. You would say tutti i pomeriggi (all the afternoons / every afternoon). Both phrases mean exactly the same thing here.
Why is there a mi before alleno?
The verb for "to work out" or "to train" is allenarsi, which is a reflexive verb in Italian. The mi is the reflexive pronoun showing that you are training yourself. Without the mi, alleno would mean you are training someone else (like a coach training a team).
Why do we use al before parco instead of just a?
We combine the preposition a (at/to) with the definite article il (the) to make al. In Italian, locations like parco usually require the definite article, so we say "at the park" (a + il = al) rather than just "at park".
