Second Conjugation Italian Verbs - Conjugating Italian Ere Verbs
Second Conjugation Italian Verbs - Conjugating Italian Ere Verbs The infinitives of all regular verbs in Italian end in ââ¬âare, ââ¬âere, or ââ¬âire and are referred to as first, second, or third conjugation verbs, respectively. In English the infinitive (linfinito) consists of to verb. amare to loveà à à temere to fearà à à sentire to hear Verbs with infinitives ending in ââ¬âere are called second conjugation, or ââ¬âere, verbs. The present tense of a regular ââ¬âere verb is formed by dropping the infinitive ending ââ¬âere and adding the appropriate endings to the resulting stem. There is a different ending for each person. Characteristics of the Second Conjugation The à «passato remotoà » (historical past) of the second conjugation verbs has two diverse forms of the first and third person singular and third person plural:io temetti/temeiegli temette/temà ©essi temettero/temeronoio vendetti/vendeiegli vendette/vendà ©essi vendettero/venderonoNote! In standard usage the forms ââ¬âetti, ââ¬âette, and ââ¬âettero are preferred. The majority of verbs whose root ends in t though, such as battere, potere, and riflettere, take the endings ââ¬âei, ââ¬âà © and ââ¬âerono.battereio batteiegli battà ©essi batteronopotereio poteiegli potà ©essi poteronoriflettereio rifletteiegli riflettà ©essi rifletteronoThe verbs fare and dire are considered second conjugation verbs (because they are derived from two third conjugation Latin verbs- facere and dicere) as well as all verbs ending in ââ¬âarre (trarre), ââ¬âorre (porre), and ââ¬âurre (tradurre).Verbs ending in ââ¬âcere (vincere), ââ¬âgere (scorgere), or ââ¬â scere (conoscere) have a particular phonetic rule.
