Non c'è nessuno svantaggio, quindi non ho nessun'obiezione.

Non c'è nessuno svantaggio, quindi non ho nessun'obiezione.
There is no disadvantage, therefore I have no objection.
From Lesson 256:The negative adjective (nessun, nessuna)·Italian

Questions & Answers about Non c'è nessuno svantaggio, quindi non ho nessun'obiezione.

Why is it nessuno svantaggio and not just nessun svantaggio?
The adjective nessuno follows the same rules as the indefinite article uno. Because svantaggio is a masculine word starting with an 's' followed by a consonant, it takes nessuno, just like you would say uno svantaggio.
Why does nessun'obiezione have an apostrophe?
Obiezione is a feminine noun starting with a vowel. The feminine form nessuna drops its final 'a' and takes an apostrophe before a vowel, becoming nessun'. By contrast, masculine words starting with a vowel take nessun without an apostrophe.
Why are there two negatives (non and nessuno) in each part of the sentence?
Italian requires a double negative when words like nessuno (no/nobody), niente (nothing), or mai (never) come after the verb. Because nessuno svantaggio and nessun'obiezione follow their respective verbs (c'è and ho), you must place non before those verbs.
How can I easily remember that obiezione is feminine, requiring the feminine nessun'?
Almost all Italian nouns ending in -zione are feminine. This is a very reliable rule that tells you to use the feminine forms of articles and adjectives, which is why we know to start with nessuna and contract it to nessun' before the vowel.
