Questions & Answers about Noi saremo molto orgogliosi del tuo successo.

Why is the verb saremo and not 'esseremo'?
Saremo is the 'we' form of the future tense for essere (to be). Essere is irregular in the future tense: instead of using the standard stem esser-, it uses the special stem sar-. You then add the regular 'we' ending -emo to get saremo (we will be).
Why does the sentence use del instead of just di for 'of'?
In Italian, possessive adjectives like tuo (your) usually need a definite article (the word for 'the') in front of them. Here, the masculine noun successo takes the article il. When you combine the preposition di (of) with the article il (the), they merge into the combined word del.
Why does orgogliosi end in an -i here?
Orgogliosi means 'proud' and it must match the people it describes. Because it describes Noi (we), which is a plural group, the adjective takes the masculine or mixed plural ending -i. If the 'we' in this sentence were a group of only women, it would change to the feminine plural orgogliose.
Can I drop the word Noi at the beginning of the sentence?
Yes, you can just say Saremo molto orgogliosi del tuo successo. The -emo ending on saremo already tells the listener exactly who is doing the action ('we'). Including Noi here just adds a little extra emphasis.
