Questions & Answers about Andiamo a vedere questi spettacoli, perché ce ne sono di imperdibili e innovativi.
Why do we need the word di before imperdibili e innovativi?
This is the core rule for using the partitive ne with adjectives. Because ne replaces the noun (spettacoli), any adjectives describing that replaced noun must be introduced by di. You can think of di imperdibili as meaning 'of an unmissable kind' or 'unmissable ones'.
How does ci sono turn into ce ne sono?
Why do both imperdibili and innovativi end in -i, even though their singular forms end differently?
They must agree with the plural masculine noun they replace (spettacoli). Innovativo follows the standard -o to -i pattern for masculine plurals. Imperdibile belongs to the group of adjectives that end in -e in the singular (for both masculine and feminine) and always change to -i in the plural.
Why is it Andiamo a vedere instead of just Andiamo vedere?
In Italian, the verb andare (to go) requires the preposition a when it is followed directly by an infinitive verb. This rule applies whenever you are expressing 'to go do something'.
