concimare — Italian conjugation

to fertilise

Frequency#1315Regular

Indicative

Present (Presente) Regular

The presente covers habits, ongoing situations, and plans about to start — much like English “I study” and “I am studying”. One present tense does both in Italian.

Lavora da casa tre giorni a settimana.

PronounItalianEnglish
ioconcimoI fertilize
tuconcimiyou fertilize
lui/leiconcimahe/she/it fertilizes
noiconcimiamowe fertilize
voiconcimateyou (pl.) fertilize
loroconcimanothey fertilize

Simple past (Passato remoto) Regular

The passato remoto tells a completed, narrative past, especially in the south and in literature. The passato prossimo is the normal spoken past in the north, so you choose register and region, not a difference in time alone.

Quella sera arrivò tardi, senza alibi.

PronounItalianEnglish
ioconcimaiI fertilized
tuconcimastiyou fertilized
lui/leiconcimòhe/she/it fertilized
noiconcimammowe fertilized
voiconcimasteyou (pl.) fertilized
loroconcimaronothey fertilized

Imperfect (Imperfetto) Regular

The imperfetto is for incomplete past actions, context, and repeated or habitual situations without a clear end. The passato prossimo, not the remoto, is its usual “event” partner in speech.

Da bambina passavo le estati al mare.

PronounItalian
ioconcimavo
tuconcimavi
lui/leiconcimava
noiconcimavamo
voiconcimavate
loroconcimavano

Conditional (Condizionale) Regular

The condizionale is for polite “would you…”, first-condition hypotheticals, and reported future from a past point of view. The classic if-chain is se + imperfetto → condizionale.

Potresti alzare un poco la voce?

PronounItalianEnglish
ioconcimereiI would fertilize
tuconcimerestiyou would fertilize
lui/leiconcimerebbehe/she/it would fertilize
noiconcimeremmowe would fertilize
voiconcimeresteyou (pl.) would fertilize
loroconcimerebberothey would fertilize

Future (Futuro semplice) Regular

The futuro semplice is for predictions and far decisions. In speech you often hear the present (with a time adverb) or a paraphrase, and a famous trick is the futuro di probabilità for a present guess: saranno le tre.

Domani partiremo all'alba.

PronounItalianEnglish
ioconcimeròI will fertilize
tuconcimeraiyou will fertilize
lui/leiconcimeràhe/she/it will fertilize
noiconcimeremowe will fertilize
voiconcimereteyou (pl.) will fertilize
loroconcimerannothey will fertilize

Present perfect (Passato prossimo) Regular

The passato prossimo is the workhorse preterit-like past in the north and in everyday Italian: avere/essere + participle, essere for reflexives, motion, and other change-of-state patterns.

Siamo andati a piedi, poi abbiamo preso l'autobus.

PronounItalianEnglish
ioho concimatoI have fertilized
tuhai concimatoyou have fertilized
lui/leiha concimatohe/she/it has fertilized
noiabbiamo concimatowe have fertilized
voiavete concimatoyou (pl.) have fertilized
lorohanno concimatothey have fertilized

Pluperfect (Trapassato prossimo) Regular

The trapassato prossimo is “further in the past than another past” — the Italian pluperfect. It pairs with a main past clause to mark sequence.

Avevamo già mangiato quando suonò il telefono.

PronounItalianEnglish
ioavevo concimatoI had fertilized
tuavevi concimatoyou had fertilized
lui/leiaveva concimatohe/she/it had fertilized
noiavevamo concimatowe had fertilized
voiavevate concimatoyou (pl.) had fertilized
loroavevano concimatothey had fertilized

Conditional perfect (Condizionale passato) Regular

The condizionale passato is for unreal or missed past results and often appears with se + trapassato prossimo in the protasis.

Avrei accettato, se mi avessero avvisato in tempo.

PronounItalian
ioavrei concimato
tuavresti concimato
lui/leiavrebbe concimato
noiavremmo concimato
voiavreste concimato
loroavrebbero concimato

Future perfect (Futuro anteriore) Regular

The futuro anteriore says something will already be over before a still-later future, or, like the French, can express a logical guess about a past result.

Entro le cinque, avrà già lasciato l'ufficio.

PronounItalianEnglish
ioavrò concimatoI will have fertilized
tuavrai concimatoyou will have fertilized
lui/leiavrà concimatohe/she/it will have fertilized
noiavremo concimatowe will have fertilized
voiavrete concimatoyou (pl.) will have fertilized
loroavranno concimatothey will have fertilized

Subjunctive

Present subjunctive (Congiuntivo presente) Regular

The congiuntivo presente is required after many verbs and fixed phrases of will, fear, purpose, and doubt. Impersonal and semi-impersonal triggers (è importante che) also force the subjunctive mood.

Penso che sia la scelta giusta.

PronounItalian
ioconcimi
tuconcimi
lui/leiconcimi
noiconcimiamo
voiconcimiate
loroconcimino

Imperfect subjunctive (Congiuntivo imperfetto) Regular

The congiuntivo imperfetto is the past of the congiuntivo system after a past matrix clause and in se + congi. imperf. → condizionale with unreal conditions.

Se avessi più tempo, viaggerei ogni mese.

PronounItalian
ioconcimassi
tuconcimassi
lui/leiconcimasse
noiconcimassimo
voiconcimaste
loroconcimassero

Other forms

Imperative (affirmative) (Imperativo) Regular

The affirmative imperativo reuses the tu form as 3sg for -are verbs, while other conjugations use the normal tu present. It is the direct command register.

Raccontami com'è andata l'esame.

PronounItalian
tuconcima
lui/leiconcimi
noiconcimiamo
voiconcimate
loroconcimino

Imperative (negative) (Imperativo negativo) Regular

Negative commands use non + full infinitive in modern Italian, which is a distinctive rule compared to other Romance languages. Polite or indirect “please don’t” can still soften the tone in context.

Non aprire quella finestra, per favore.

PronounItalian
tunon concimare
lui/leinon concimi
noinon concimiamo
voinon concimate
loronon concimino
