Description
Italian language quality issue: the model sometimes uses the English copula “is” structure when expressing age in Italian, producing phrases such as “Anna è 50” instead of the grammatically correct “Anna ha 50 anni”. This occurs even when the entire prompt is written in Italian.

Research direction
No source file, test, or entry point is identified in the issue. Begin by reproducing the Italian age-expression error with an Italian prompt and investigate how Gemma handles this language pattern; done means the model consistently uses forms such as “Anna ha 50 anni” rather than “Anna è 50”.
