    I am 41 years old. I am Italian from La Spezia, on the Gulf of Poets.I have been writing since I was thirteen, especially thriller novels and spy stories.In October 2008, I published "Il gene dell'azzardo", a short autobiography about my gambling addiction in 2000-2006. There is now a second edition of this book titled "Il giocatore - il virus dell'azzardo". Unfortunately, it is only available in Italian.In 2010, I published the religious thriller "A hell of a secret: Jesus Christ exposed", ranking among the Top 100 best sellers in the Italian Kindle store for three months in a row.In October 2011, I wrote a series of weird tales and ghost stories. The title is "Lettere dal buio", also available in English as "Darkness, come on in..."Writing is my life, it makes me feel happy and complete. It dignifies me. When I write, I feel like I am not alone.Germano Dalcielo

      Italian Irregular Verbs Fully Conjugated in all Tenses (Learn Italian Verbs Book 1) - Germano Dalcielo

      Introduction

      Italian verbs are classified into three conjugations according to the ending of the infinitive form:

      1ª coniugazione: verbs that end in –are (fare, dare, mangiarestare)

      2ª coniugazione: verbs that end in ‒ere (avere, essere, bereleggere) and also the ones that derive from Latin’s 2nd and 3rd conjugations: trarre, produrreporre (from Latin trah-ere, produc-ere, pon-ere)

      3ª coniugazione: verbs that end in ‒ire (udire, dormireuscire, finire)

      Italian verbs are conjugated in the following moods:

      Indicative

      Subjunctive

      Conditional

      Imperative

      Infinitive

      Gerund

      Participle

      And in the following tenses:

      Present

      Compound Past

      Imperfect

      Pluperfect

      Future

      Compound Future

      Simple Past

      Past Perfect

      Italian verbs can be transitive or intransitive, or even both:

      Ho fatto i compiti. (I have done my homework) [transitive]

      Sono andato al lavoro. (I went to work) [intransitive]

      Ho mangiato una mela. (I have eaten an apple) [transitive]

      Ho già mangiato. (I have already eaten) [intransitive]

      Transitive verbs can be conjugated in the active, passive and reflexive voice. Intransitive verbs can only have the active or the reflexive (pronominal) voice:

      Ho lavato l’auto (I have washed) [transitive verb, active voice]

      Sono lavato (I am washed) [passive voice]

      Mi sono lavato (I have washed myself) [reflexive voice]

      Sono andato (I have gone) [intransitive verb, only active]

      Sono morto (I died) [intransitive verb, only active]

      Mi sono pentito (I repented) [intransitive verb, pronominal voice]

      Mi sono dimenticato (I forgot) [intransitive verb, pronominal voice]

      Italian verbs are conjugated in the first, second and third person (singular and plural), either in the masculine or the feminine gender:

      1) Io sono stato / sono stata

      2) Tu sei stato / sei stata

      3) Lui è stato / Lei è stata

      1) Noi siamo stati / siamo state

      2) Voi siete stati / siete state

      3) Essi sono stati / Esse sono state

      In the following pages, you will find 50 Italian irregular verbs conjugated in all the tenses and moods.

      There is no general rule that can help you guess what their endings will be. They are irregular, so you’ll just have to live with it and learn them by heart.

      Affliggere (to afflict)

      Present Indicative

      Io affligg-o

      Tu affligg-i

      Lui/Lei affligg-e

      Noi affligg-iamo

      Voi affligg-ete

      Essi affligg-ono

      Example: La crisi economica affligge molti Paesi europei (The economic crisis afflicts many European countries).

      Lo affliggono diversi problemi di salute (Several health issues afflict him).

      Compound Past Indicative

      Io ho afflitto

      Tu hai afflitto

      Lui/Lei ha afflitto

      Noi abbiamo afflitto

      Voi avete afflitto

      Essi hanno afflitto

      Example: Ho afflitto i miei amici con i miei piagnistei (I have afflicted my friends with my whining).

      Avete afflitto un’intera generazione con queste leggi ingiuste (You have afflicted a whole generation with these unfair laws).

      Imperfect Indicative

      Io affligg-evo

      Tu affligg-evi

      Lui/Lei affligg-eva

      Noi affligg-evamo

      Voi affligg-evate

      Essi affligg-evano

      Example: La crisi in Italia affliggeva molte famiglie nel 2011 (The economic crisis in Italy was afflicting many families during 2011).

      Lo affliggevano con le loro pressanti richieste (They were afflicting him with their pressing requests).

      *Please note that in the Italian language, the Imperfect tense is used to focus on the duration of ongoing actions in the past. Here, I tried to translate it with the English past progressive. In Italian, the past progressive "stava / stavano affliggendo" would mean that the action was happening in that specific moment in the past. The Imperfect tense affliggeva / affliggevano, instead, renders the idea that the action lasted some time in the past.

      Pluperfect Indicative

      Io avevo afflitto

      Tu avevi afflitto

      Lui/Lei aveva afflitto

      Noi avevamo afflitto

      Voi avevate afflitto

      Essi avevano afflitto

      Example: Quella tragedia aveva afflitto entrambi i suoi genitori (That tragedy had afflicted both his parents).

      Avevamo afflitto nostra madre con tutti i guai che combinavamo (We had afflicted our mom with all the troubles we had been causing).

      Future Indicative

      Io affligg-erò

      Tu affligg-erai

      Lui/Lei affligg-erà

      Noi affligg-eremo

      Voi affligg-erete

      Essi affligg-eranno

      Example: La crisi in Italia affliggerà molte famiglie nel 2017 (The economic crisis in Italy will afflict many families in 2017).

      Lo affliggeranno con le loro noiose domande (They will afflict him with their boring questions).

      Compound Future Indicative

      Io avrò afflitto

      Tu avrai afflitto

      Lui/Lei avrà afflitto

      Noi avremo afflitto

      Voi avrete afflitto

      Essi avranno afflitto

      Example: Per la fine di quest’anno, quell’investimento sbagliato avrà afflitto drasticamente le loro finanze (By the end of this year, that wrong investment will have afflicted their finances drastically).

      Simple Past Indicative

      Io afflissi

      Tu affligg-esti

      Lui/Lei afflisse

      Noi affligg-emmo

      Voi affligg-este

      Essi afflissero

      Example: La crisi in Italia afflisse molte famiglie nel 2011 (The economic crisis in Italy afflicted many families in 2011).

      Lo afflissero con le loro pressanti richieste (They afflicted him with their pressing requests).

      *Please note that Imperfect and Simple Past of Indicative are NOT interchangeable. The Simple Past is used to focus on the moment in which the action occurred or was completed.

      Past Perfect Indicative

      Io ebbi afflitto

      Tu avesti afflitto

      Lui/Lei ebbe afflitto

      Essi ebbero afflitto

      Present Subjunctive

      Io affligg-a

      Tu affligg-a

      Lui/Lei affligg-a

      Noi affligg-iamo

      Voi affligg-iate

      Essi affligg-ano

      Example: È un dato di fatto che la crisi in Italia affligga molte famiglie oggigiorno (It’s a fact that the crisis in Italy afflicts many families nowadays).

      Che lo affliggano pure con le loro pressanti richieste! (Let them afflict him with their pressing requests!).

      Lui/Lei affligg-erebbe

      Noi affligg-eremmo

      Voi affligg-ereste
