Questions & Answers about Questi pantaloni di seta avrebbero molto successo nella moda.
Why does the verb form start with avr- instead of aver-?
Avrebbero means "they would have", which is the present conditional form of avere. Avere is an irregular verb in the conditional: instead of keeping its full stem, it drops the "e" to become avr-. Then we add the standard "they" ending for the conditional, which is -ebbero.
Why does it say di seta instead of having a specific adjective for "silk"?
In Italian, you usually describe what something is made of by using the preposition di (of) followed by the noun for the material. So "silk trousers" translates literally to "trousers of silk" (pantaloni di seta).
Why is the word for "these" questi here?
Does molto change its ending to match successo?
