Questions & Answers about L'astrologo vedrà il tuo futuro nell'oroscopo.
Why is the verb vedrà and not vederà?
Vedrà comes from the verb vedere (to see). In the future tense, vedere is irregular. Instead of keeping the -e in its stem before adding the future suffix, it drops it. So, instead of vederà, it becomes vedrà.
Why does tuo have the word il in front of it? Don't we sometimes leave the article out with possessives?
Where does the word nell' come from?
Nell' is a combination of the preposition in (in) and the definite article l' (the). Because oroscopo starts with a vowel, it takes the article l'. When you combine in + l', it merges into nell' (in the).
Why do we use l' for astrologo instead of il?
Because astrologo starts with a vowel! In Italian, whether a singular noun is masculine or feminine, if it starts with a vowel, its definite article shrinks to l' with an apostrophe to make pronunciation smoother.
