quelli

Quelli is an Italian masculine plural pronoun that translates to "those" or "them" in English. It is used to refer to multiple people, things, or animals that are not close to the speaker or the person being addressed. The plural pronoun "quelli" is used in both the nominative and accusative cases, and it is often accompanied by the definite article "i" when referring to specific individuals or objects. For example, "Quelli sono miei amici" means "Those are my friends." The use of "quelli" is essential for maintaining clarity and specificity in Italian communication, as it helps to distinguish between different groups of people or things.
