    Ex:
  • Future conjugations

  • To form the futuro with verbs ending in -ciare and -giare, such as cominciare and viaggiare, drop the -i from the stem in every verb form in order to maintain the soft sound. With verbs ending in -care and -gare such as giocare and pagare, add an -h after the c and g in every verb form in order to maintain the hard sound.

    Ex:
  • Irregular part 1
    yas
  • Irregular part 2
    yas
