Compounds of Prepositions and Articles

Italian Prepositions and definite articles can be merged together as in the table below instead of being written separate.

il lo l' la i gli le
di del dello dell' della dei degli delle
a ai allo all' alla ai agli alle
in nel nello nell' nella nei negli nelle
con col collo coll' colla coi cogli colle
su sul sullo sull' sulla sui sugli sulle

However nowadays, except for in poetry, con, per, tra and fra are always followed by a definite article.
