Professor Dave again, let’s name some more animals.
Now we know the names of all the animals one could possibly own as a pet, but what about
the kinds of animals you would find at the zoo or in the jungle?
These are wild animals, or animali selvatici.
We might want to know these ones too, and many of them are cognates, so they’re easy
to remember.
We should note that while all animals can be male or female, only certain animals will
use both a masculine and feminine form: Like un gatto and una gatta.
Or, un orso, and un’orsa.
But for most of the animals only one form will be used, so make note of the article listed.
Let’s take a trip through an Italian zoo right now.
And those are all the animals at the Italian zoo.
Roar!
