41. Imperfect Tense

The imperfect tense is also called the past descriptive tense and corresponds to was doing or used to do in English. The imperfect is used to describe a continued or habitual action in the past, or to describe an action that was occurring in the past, while something else happened.  Time, age, weather conditions as well as mental and physical conditions are all expressed in the imperfect rather than the passato prossimo tense. 

The imperfect in Italian has the same ending for all three verb groups.  It is formed by dropping the -re of the infinitive and adding the following endings:

-vo -vamo
-vi -vate
-va -vano

 

Avere is regular in the imperfect, but essere, bere, dire and fare are irregular.  The stem of essere becomes er- for io, tu, lui/lei and loro, and it does not take the v, while the stem for noi and voi is era- and it does take the v.  The stems for bere, dire, fare, porre and tradurre are slightly irregular: beve-, dice-, face-, pone-, and traduce- but they take the regular endings of the imperfect.

essere - to be bere - to drink dire - to say / tell
ero eravamo bevevo bevevamo dicevo dicevamo
eri eravate bevevi bevevate dicevi dicevate
era erano beveva bevevano diceva dicevano
           
fare - to do porre - to put / place tradurre - to translate
facevo facevamo ponevo ponevamo traducevo traducevamo
facevi facevate ponevi ponevate traducevi traducevate
faceva facevano poneva ponevano traduceva traducevano

 

Avevo fame.  I was hungry.
Era tardi.  It was late.
Non diceva niente.  He wasn't saying anything.
Aspettavamo in fila.  We were waiting in line.
Prendevo sempre l'autobus.  I always take the bus.


42. To Be/Stay and to Give

stare - to be / stay dare - to give
sto stiamo do diamo
stai state dai date
sta stanno danno
Past participle: stato Past participle: dato

 

Stare means to be when used in progressive tense.  If you use it with a present participle, it translates to something is happening, not something happens as with the present indicative.   Stare is also used in many health expressions.

Come stai?  How are you?  
Sto bene.
 I'm fine.

Stare per plus an infinitive means "to be about to" do something.  

Stavo per uscire.  I was about to go out.  
Stiamo per mangiare.
 We're about to eat.

Dare un esame means to take an exam rather than to give an exam.


43. Gerunds

Gerunds are formed by dropping the ending of the infinitive, and adding the following endings to the stem:

Gerunds
-are -ando
-ere -endo
-ire -endo

 

To express a progressive or continuous action, conjugate stare and add the gerund.  Sto parlando italiano is I am speaking Italian.  (As opposed to Parlo italiano I speak Italian.)  There are only a few irregular gerunds: fare - facendo (doing), dare - dando (giving), dire - dicendo (say/telling), bere - bevendo (drinking), porre - ponendo (putting, placing) and tradurre - traducendo (translating).

Che cosa stai facendo? What are you doing?
Dove stanno andando? Where are they going?
Stava dicendo la verità. He was telling the truth.

Words denoting buildings in a city, as well as open spaces, do not use the article after in.

Sono in ufficio, non in biblioteca. I'm in the office, not in the library.

Non mi piace vivere in città. Preferisco vivre in campagna. I don't like living in the city. I prefer to live in the countryside.

fire engine l'autopompa tractor il trattore
minivan la monovolume trailer il rimorchio

To say by bus, car, etc., replace the article with in.


46. To Want, to Be Able to, to Have to

volere - to want potere - to be able to, can dovere - to have to, must
voglio vogliamo posso possiamo devo dobbiamo
vuoi volete puoi potete devi dovete
vuole vogliono può possono deve devono
Past participle: voluto Past participle: potuto Past participle: dovuto

In the passato prossimo, these three verbs can use either avere or essere as the auxiliary verb, depending on what auxiliary the main verb in the sentence takes.

Abbiamo potuto parlare. We could/were able to talk.
Sono dovuto partire presto. I had to leave early.
Lucy è voluta venire con noi. Lucy wanted to come with us.

Use of these verbs in the passato prossimo indicates that it is certain that the action did happen, whereas in the imperfect the result of the action remains unclear and uncertain.


47. Asking Questions

Yes / No Questions:

The easiest way to ask a question is to simply add a question mark to the end of the statement and using rising intonation.

Hai molto tempo libero? Do you have a lot of free time?

Add non è vero? / è vero? / vero? or simply no? to the end of the statement. This literally translates as it is not true, and can have several meanings in English, such as isn't it/he/she, aren't you/they, doesn't it/he/she, don't you/they, etc.

Sei una studentessa, non è vero? You're a student, aren't you?

If using a subject pronoun (or name), put it at the end or after the verb.

Viene a casa Marco? Is Marco coming home?

Mangia la pizza il ragazzo? Is the boy eating the pizza?

Wh- Questions:

Interrogatives are followed by the verb. Remember that quale agrees in gender and number with the noun it precedes.

Quando vai in vacanza? When are you going on vacation?

Di chi è questo libro? Whose book is this?

Che cosa fai oggi? What are you doing today?

Although in is one of the prepositions that forms contractions with articles, the article is not used with rooms in a house.

Dormiamo in camera e mangiamo in sala da pranzo. We sleep in the bedroom and we eat in the dining room.


49. Comparative and Superlative

Comparisons are expressed as follows:

più... di / che
meno... di / che
così... come
tanto... quanto
more... than
less... than
as... as
as... as

Più and meno can be used with di or che.  Di is used when comparing two different things, while che is used when the comparison is between two qualities of the same thing.

Le ciliegie sono più buone delle fragole.  Cherries are better than strawberries.
La mela è più verde che rossa.  The apple is more green than red.
Franco è così alto come me.  Frank is as tall as me.

The Relative Superlative compares two or more things and expresses the greatest or the least degree.  It is formed by placing the article before the comparative form of the adjective, or in front of the noun.  And instead of the preposition in, di (and its contractions), is always used with the superlative.

Le mele sono la frutta meno costosa del mondo.  Apples are the least expensive fruit in the world.
L'oro è il più prezioso dei metalli.  Gold is the most precious metal.
Questo è il palazzo più alto di Napoli.  This is the tallest building in Naples.

The Absolute Superlative expresses an extreme degree or absolute state of something without comparison.  This can be expressed in several ways in Italian.

Drop the last vowel of the adjective and add -issimo, -issima, -issimi, or -issime.
Le fragole sono dolcissime.  Strawberries are very sweet.

Place the words molto, troppo, or assai before the adjective.
Questa arancia è molto buona.  This orange is very good.

Repeat the adjective or adverb.
Lei parla piano piano.  She speaks very softly.


50. Irregular Forms

Some adverbs have irregular comparative, relative superlative, and absolute superlative forms.  The most common are:

Adverb Comparative Relative Superlative Absolute Superlative
bene
male

badly

Portare means to wear, but it also means to bring. You can use indossare or the reflexive verb mettersi for to wear / put on clothing.


52. To Wear

mettersi - to wear, put on (clothing)
mi metto ci mettiamo
ti metti vi mettete
si mette si mettono
Past participle: si è messo

 

You don't use possessive pronouns when referring to parts of the body or clothing, but you do use the definite article.  

Mi metto la maglia. I'm wearing my sweater. 


53. Future Tense

The future of regular verbs is formed by dropping the final -e of the infinitive and adding the following endings.  For -are verbs, the a is changed to an e.


-ai
-emo
-ete
-anno

Verbs ending in -care and -gare add an h after the c and g in the in order to retain the hard sounds.  Verbs ending in -ciare and -giare drop the i from their stems in the future.

Many verbs use irregular stems in the future tense, but they still use the regular endings from above:

to be essere sar- to remain, stay rimanere rimarr-
to have avere avr- to drink bere berr-
to be, stay stare star- to put, place porre porr-
to give dare dar- to come venire verr-
to make fare far- to translate tradurre tradurr-
to go andare andr- to hold tenere terr-
to fall cadere cadr- to draw, pull trarre trarr-
to have to, must dovere dovr- to explain spiegare spiegher-
to be able to, can potere potr- to pay pagare pagher-
to know (facts) sapere sapr- to look for cercare cercher-
to see vedere vedr- to forget dimenticare dimenticher-
to live (be alive) vivere vivr- to eat mangiare manger-
to want volere vorr- to begin cominciare comincer-

The future tense is commonly used after quando (when), appena (as soon as), dopo che (after), and se (if) even though the present tense is often used in English. In addition to expressing the future, this tense in Italian can also express probability; but in English, the words probably, can or must are used.

Non vedo Maria da molto tempo. Dove sarà? I haven't seen Maria in a long time. Where could she be?
Sarà ammalata o in vacanza. She must be sick or on vacation.

Notice that Italian uses the future tense after se in hypothetical statements, whereas in English the present tense is used.

Se domani farà bel tempo, andrò in spiaggia. If the weather is good tomorrow, I'll go to the beach.

The future perfect (futuro composto) is formed with the future of avere or essere plus a past participle. The translation in English is will have + past participle. It must be used when there are two actions in the future that do not happen at the same time.

Alle sei, avremo già mangiato. By six, we will have eaten already.
Farà un viaggio dopo che avrà superato gli esami. He will go on a trip after he will have passed his exams.


54. Preceding Adjectives

Only a few adjectives go before the noun, the rest are placed right after it.  Bello - beautiful, buono - good, grande - large, and brutto - ugly are the most common preceding adjectives, even though they don't have to go before the noun.  Bello and buono have alternate forms when they precede a noun.

Buono e Bello
Singular Plural Before a:
Masculine
buono buoni z, s + consonant
buon vowel or consonant
Feminine
buona buone consonant
buon' vowel
Masculine
bello begli z, s + consonant
bell' vowel
bel bei consonant
Feminine
bella belle consonant
bell' vowel

If they go after the noun, then they can be formed in the usual way.  The above forms are only for when they go before the noun.  Be aware that grande can have alternate forms before nouns too.  Grande can become gran before masculine or feminine nouns beginning with a consonant.  Or it could contract to grand' before masculine or feminine nouns beginning with a vowel.  But you do not have to use the alternate forms, whether or not you place the adjective before or after the noun.


55.  Adjectives: Feminine and Plural

Masculine to Feminine and Singular to Plural

Masc. Fem.
-o -a
-e -e
Sing. Plural
-o, -e -i
-a -e

 

Some adjectives have two forms, others have four.  Francese (french) has two: francese and francesi.  Nuovo (new) has four: nuovo, nuova, nuovi, and nuove.

(un)comfortable (in)comodo heavy / thick pesante ready / quick pronto

 

Pronto also means hello when answering the telephone.


57. adverbs

 

Most adverbs are formed by adding -mente to the feminine singular form of the adjective.  Adjectives ending in -le or -re drop the final -e before adding -mente, if the l or r is preceded by a vowel.

Adjective (feminine form) Adverb
recente
comoda
finale
regolare
recentemente
comodamente
finalmente
regolarmente
recently
comfortably
finally
regularly

Note that the adverbial form of buono (good) is bene (well), and cattivo (bad) is male (badly).

The adverb sempre (always) usually follows the verb.  Anche (also, too) always precedes the noun, pronoun or infinitive to which it refers.  When it precedes io, it becomes anch'.

Noi studiamo sempre.  We always study.
Vuole anche questo libro.  He wants that book, too.
Anch'io devo studiare.  I have to study too.

Mi piace giocare a calcio. I like to play soccer.
Che cosa fai nel tempo libero? What do you do in your free time?
