Questions & Answers about Non vogliamo andare nella piazza più affollata.
Where is the definite article for the superlative structure?
The lesson says a relative superlative uses a definite article, but here it is merged into nella (in + la). The la in nella works for both the noun (piazza) and the superlative (più affollata). You do not need to add a second la before più.
Why do we use nella instead of just in?
Because we are talking about a specific place: the most crowded square. When the preposition in meets the definite article la, they must combine to form the single word nella.
Does affollata have to agree with the noun even in a superlative?
Yes! Even though it comes after più, the adjective affollata still needs to match the feminine, singular noun piazza. If we were talking about crowded restaurants (i ristoranti), it would change to più affollati.
Why is andare in its dictionary form instead of conjugated?
Because it comes right after vogliamo (we want). In Italian, when you have a modal verb expressing desire, ability, or necessity followed by another action, only the first verb changes to match the subject. The second verb stays in the infinitive form.
