In lesson 1.9 on "Likes & Dislikes," in the discussion of superlatives, the example is:
piccolo --> piccolissimi. Is the plural. Is piccolo used with both plural and singular masculine nouns, or would piccoli be used with plural masculine nouns?
piccolissimi versus piccolissimo

I think piccolissimi is a typo.
piccolo becomes piccolissimo
piccoli becomes piccolissimi

Yes, that's what I thought also. But of course, I don't know what I don't know, so I wanted to check with the forum. Grazie, John.

ciao a tutti,
there is no typo.
Here the explanation:
"piccolo" (masculine, singular)
= > piccolissimo
"piccoli" (masculine, plural)
= > piccolissimi.
Enjoy !
Ciao
