tuo

This is the 457th most frequent Italian word.


tuo

"Your" (singular, informal).

In this example, 'tuo' again functions as a possessive adjective to indicate ownership of 'cane' (dog), asking if the dog belongs to 'tu' (you).

In this sentence, 'tuo' is used as a possessive adjective to indicate ownership, modifying the noun 'libro' (book) and denoting that it belongs to 'tu' (you).
