Summarizing, you can conditionally divide regular verbs into two groups, depending on their end in the infinitive:

  • words ending with -ARE (PARLAre) in the third person (HE, SHE, YOU) will have an ending -A (LUI PARLA);
  • words ending with -IRE (DORMIRE) and -ERE in the third person will have an ending -E (LEI DORMELUI VENDE).

Past tense education:

  • verbs ending in -ARE in the past tense look like root + ending -ATO;
  • verbs ending -IRE in the past look like root + ending - ITO;
  • verb ending in -ERE in the past tense: root + ending -UTO.

Indirect Pronouns

  • IO - I
  • MI - ME ("Mi")

Example:TU MI VEDI? - YOU SEE ME?

  • TU - YOU
  • Ti - YOU ("T")

Example:

  • IO TI SENTO BENE - I HEAR YOU GOOD

Negative particle Non is put before the pronoun.

Example:IO TI ASCOLTO MA NON TI SENTO - I LISTEN TO YOU, BUT DO NOT LISTEN

  • Lui - HE
  • LO - HIM
  • LEI - SHE IS
  • LA - HER

Example: LUI LA AMA, MA LEI NON LO AMA - HE LOVES HER, AND SHE HIS - NO
