    ...

    "bello" comes before the noun (it's "on the list"), and follows the pattern of the specific article. (il,lo,la,l' - i,gli,le).

    lo zio - il bello zio

    l'amico - il bell'amico

    la donna - la bella donna

    l'anima - la bell'anima

    i libri - i bei libri

    gli alberi - i begli alberi

    le cattedrali - le belle cattedrali



    Try:

    the beautiful book

    the beautiful sister

    the beautiful studio

    the beautiful tree

    the beautiful appartments

    the beautiful boys/guys

    the beautiful girls

    the beautiful sports



    Sentences:

    You (plural) have beautiful apartments


    Note!

    If "bello" is after the noun, f.ex. with a modifier - it follows the standard ending: "bello", "bella", "belli", "belle".


    Try:

    the very beautiful book

    the very beautiful studio
