Umseting - Enskt-Italskt - as he is sweet to have exhausted and abandoned the passions!

"perche" si scrive così "perché" e un'altra cosa che non capisco è "the passions". Perché non potrebbe essere "le passioni" ?


I'm just practising my Italian. Don't "shoot" me if I make mistakes in my writing

Mi dispiace, ma per "the passions" si scrive "le passioni".

Well, now here are three not natives... But three same ideas.

Is it right? Why?

Ok, my question was above all about the meaning because the sentence sounds strange...

Ah, ok.
Thank you.

Forse è qualcosa del tipo

"...è così dolce per aver esaurito e abbandonato le passioni"

Nel senso che "mi sembra strano che sia così dolce, dopotutto ha esaurito e abbandonato le passioni"

Bha!

com'è gentile ad aver esaurito e abbandonato le passioni!

la soluzione di bipbip mi sembra la migliore, anch'io la pensavo così.

chiedo un parere a Ricciodimare

I think that changes the original text

...as he is sweet to have...

it means : because he is sweet...

yes i think we can translate this way, but the inner meaning maybe is that of bipbip

bipbip's suggestion implies an exclamation like "How sweet he is"
I don't think that was the intention.
I believe the text was something like the end of a thought like: I don't believe he gave up...as he is sweet to have exhausted and abandoned the passions!
I'm just guessing the beginning but there must have been something before the text, that made this part become a relative clause.

I'm changing my mind towards Marika's interpretation now.

Yes. Now that I'm reading the text for the second time I think that Mariketta's version could also fit. So I guess the commentaries field will have some adnotations, and not only "frammento senza inizio"

and still..."As he is sweet to have exhausted and abandoned the passions" I personally understand it like "due to the fact that he is sweet...". Well, nevermind, the sentence is quite strange as it is and it can be more or less misunderstood.

Essendo lui cosí dolce da esaurire ed abbandonare tutte le passioni!

It's "poichè lui".
