The boys dont have enything to eat

the translation in the flashcard is: I ragazzi non hanno da mangiare. 

Could you say it in another way,  per esempio: 

I ragazzi no hanno di niente per mangare  or

I ragazzi non hanno nessuno mangato ?

Hi Anne-elisabethT, 

 

thanks for your question!

 

The correct translation for “The boys don't have anything to eat.” is “I ragazzi non hanno da mangiare.” However, you may also say “I ragazzi non hanno niente da mangiare.”, to highlight the fact that they have nothing to eat. 

 

Hope this helps :)
