Stamattina sto usando la mia moka più vecchia.

Stamattina sto usando la mia moka più vecchia. Questa moka è di marca Bialetti e di colore azzurro chiaro.

[peterkotrcka@mastodon.bsd.cafe]

Non mi piace questa moka perchè è grande e serve per tre tazzine. Ne è di colore azzurro.

Does this make any sense?

[stefano@mastodon.bsd.cafe]

@peterkotrcka The first part is ok. The second isn't totally clear.

[peterkotrcka@mastodon.bsd.cafe]

@stefano Grazie. What I wanted to say (and most likely used the "ne" very very incorrectly) is:

I don't like this moka pot because it's big (I probably should specify that it is TOO big to clarify things) and it serves (or provides) 3 cups of coffee.

And the second sentence, in which I wanted to figure out how to use the "ne" particle should be something like "It is light blue", like "that thing we were talking about earlier has this specific color".

[stefano@mastodon.bsd.cafe]

@peterkotrcka So, the "ne" here is not correct. You could just avoid it and write "È di colore azzurro". It's correct and clearly tied to the subject for the former sentence.

[peterkotrcka@mastodon.bsd.cafe]

@stefano Grazie. I also asked the chinese AI and this is a particle used for replacing the "di" (partitive) constructs..

Example time:

Ho bisogno di zucchero. => Ne (zucchero) ho bisogno

[stefano@mastodon.bsd.cafe]

@peterkotrcka In that specific sentence, it's correct. Here you need sugar (ne ho bisogno - you need the ne as "ho bisogno" needs something to be specified) - in the former sentence, being blue is a part of the moka, so it's not needed.
