Italian verbs, general information

Regular verb groups

Verbtime differentiates between three verb groups.
These are the verbs ending on "ARE", verbs ending on "ERE" as well as verbs that end on "IRE". With "IRE"-verbs Verbtime differentiates between IRE-verbs that are built like the verb "capire" and all other IRE-verbs. Verbs that are built like "capire", are shown as "IRE2" or "ire (isc)". Verbtime stores IRE2-verbs in a list that can be extended by you, if needed (also see: Appendix, IRE2-verbs).

Auxiliary verbs

Italian verbs are conjugated using auxiliary verbs "avere" and "essere".
Most Italian verbs are built using auxiliary verb "avere". Verbtime stores verbs that use auxiliary verb "essere" in a list that can be extended by you, if needed (also see: Appendix, essere-verbs).

Note that essere-conjugated verbs change their Participio Passato in the composed times depending on singular / plural and male / female form. The following list provides an overview (also see essere-conjugated verbs, like e.g. andare):

Singular male:	[essere] + Participio Passato (verb) + o	(e.g. sono andato)
Plural male:	[essere] + Participio Passato (verb) + i	(e.g. siamo andati)
Singular female:	[essere] + Participio Passato (verb) + a	(e.g. sono andata)
Plural female:	[essere] + Participio Passato (verb) + e	(e.g. siamo andate)
