1 ours
['aʊəz]their car is red but ours is blue — la loro macchina è rossa, ma la nostra è blu
the book isn't ours to lend you — il libro non è nostro, non possiamo prestartelo
••ours is not an easy task — form. il nostro non è un compito facile
Note:In Italian, possessive pronouns have the same forms as the corresponding adjectives, are usually preceded by an article, and reflect the gender and number of the noun they are standing for. So ours is translated by il nostro, la nostra, i nostri, le nostre, according to what is being referred to: your boss and ours = il tuo capo e il nostro; this room is ours = questa stanza è la nostra; their children are younger than ours = i loro bambini sono più giovani dei nostri; your shoes are brown, while ours are black = le tue scarpe sono marroni, mentre le nostre sono nere. - Since Italian possessive adjectives, unlike English ones, may be preceded by an article, a demonstrative adjective or a numeral, an English possessive pronoun is often translated by an Italian possessive adjective: a cousin of ours = un nostro cugino; that schoolfriend of ours = quel nostro compagno di scuola; four books of ours = quattro nostri libri. - For examples and particular usages, see the entry below* * *pronoun (the one(s) belonging to us: The house is ours.) il/la/i/le nostro/a/i/e* * *['aʊəz]their car is red but ours is blue — la loro macchina è rossa, ma la nostra è blu
