Italian

Etymology

From Latin tuus, from Proto-Italic *towos.

In the singular, Latin tuum underwent *ʊu > *ou > *ɔu dissimilation,[1] cf. Sardinian tou, and also Latin ōvum > Italian òvo, Spanish huevo, ultimately producing [ˈtwɔu], and a plural [ˈtwɔi]. Italian then underwent its regular *wɔV > *uV sound change,[2] cf. *bwɔe > bue, *mjɛu > mio, producing ultimately [ˈtu.o]. This latter sound change is blocked by a following [i], which explains the plural form tuoi, cf. *mjɛi > miei.

Pronunciation

• IPA^(key): /ˈtu.o/, (unstressed) /tu.o/[3]
• Rhymes: -uo
• Hyphenation: tù‧o, (unstressed) tu‧o

Determiner

tuo (feminine tua, masculine plural tuoi, feminine plural tue)

1. your (informal)

   i tuoi figli ― your children

   le tue macchine ― your cars

   casa tua ― your house

   tuo padre ― your father

Pronoun

tuo (feminine tua, masculine plural tuoi, feminine plural tue)

1. yours

   Sono i tuoi. ― They are yours.

Usage notes

• The use or non-use of the definite article in conjunction with the determiner and possessive pronoun is the same as for mio; see the usage note there.
