Questions & Answers about I massaggi sono inclusi nel prezzo?

Why is it massaggi and not massaggii?
The singular form is massaggio. Nouns ending in an unstressed -io simply change to a single -i in the plural, rather than taking a double 'i'. So, massaggio becomes massaggi.
Why does the word inclusi end with an 'i'?
Incluso (included) functions as an adjective here, describing i massaggi. Because massaggi is a masculine plural noun, the adjective must agree with it, so its ending changes from -o to -i.
Where does the word nel come from?
Nel means 'in the'. It combines the preposition in (in) with the definite article il (the). It uses il because prezzo (price) is a masculine singular noun.
How could I rephrase this question using vorrei for a more polite request?
To make this sound a bit softer, you can add vorrei sapere se (I would like to know if) to the beginning. The sentence becomes: Vorrei sapere se i massaggi sono inclusi nel prezzo.
