I hope it's okay to ask my question in English. In an Italian sentence if you have a string of nouns followed by a single adjective, does the adjective apply only to the last noun or to all of them--or is it ambiguous, as in English? For example, here is part of a sentence in a book I'm reading: ... far risaltare ... i contrasti, le incompatibilità, gli opposti e le contradizioni oggetive... In English, if I were to write something equivalent, like "... to bring out ... the objective contrasts, incompatibilities, opposites, and contradictions...," the sentence would be ambiguous as to whether "objective" applies only to "contrasts" or to all the nouns. Is it the same in Italian? I'm wondering too if the fact that the list contains both masculine and feminine nouns, but the adjective is feminine, is a clue. If the adjective applied to all the nouns, would it be masculine, as is usually the case when dealing with mixed groups? But even if that's the case here, how are these situations interpreted in general? Grazie mille per la vostra assistenza!
