Questions & Answers about Avete tre moto costose?
Why does the word moto stay exactly the same when we are talking about three of them?
If moto ends in -o, why does the adjective costose end in -e?
Even though it ends in -o, moto is a feminine noun because its full form (motocicletta) is feminine. Since there are three of them, we need the feminine plural form of the adjective costoso, which is costose. The adjective always agrees with the true gender and number of the noun, regardless of the noun's abbreviated ending.
