Advanced Description
This is is an experimental feature. Please report any issues.The Italian adjective possibile translates to the English word possible. It is used to describe something that can happen or exist, or that has the potential to be true or real. The word derives from the Latin possibilis, which means capable of being done or achieved.
In Italian, possibile can be used in a variety of contexts. For example, it can be used to express uncertainty or doubt about something, as in È possibile che piova domani? (Is it possible that it will rain tomorrow?). It can also be used to indicate that something is feasible or achievable, as in È possibile raggiungere la vetta della montagna? (Is it possible to reach the summit of the mountain?).
It's worth noting that possibile is often used in conjunction with other words to convey different shades of meaning. For instance, when combined with the adverbial particle quasi (almost), it can indicate that something is very likely to happen. Similarly, when combined with the negative particle non (not), it can indicate that something is impossible or unlikely.
