disordinare — Italian conjugation

to disorder

Frequency#579Regular

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
iodisordinoI disorder
tudisordiniyou disorder
lui/leidisordinahe/she/it disorders
noidisordiniamowe disorder
voidisordinateyou (pl.) disorder
lorodisordinanothey disorder

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
iodisordinaiI disordered
tudisordinastiyou disordered
lui/leidisordinòhe/she/it disordered
noidisordinammowe disordered
voidisordinasteyou (pl.) disordered
lorodisordinaronothey disordered

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
iodisordinavo
tudisordinavi
lui/leidisordinava
noidisordinavamo
voidisordinavate
lorodisordinavano

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
iodisordinereiI would disorder
tudisordinerestiyou would disorder
lui/leidisordinerebbehe/she/it would disorder
noidisordineremmowe would disorder
voidisordineresteyou (pl.) would disorder
lorodisordinerebberothey would disorder

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
iodisordineròI will disorder
tudisordineraiyou will disorder
lui/leidisordineràhe/she/it will disorder
noidisordineremowe will disorder
voidisordinereteyou (pl.) will disorder
lorodisordinerannothey will disorder

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 disordinatoI have disordered
tuhai disordinatoyou have disordered
lui/leiha disordinatohe/she/it has disordered

voiavete disordinatoyou (pl.) have disordered
lorohanno disordinatothey have disordered

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 disordinatoI had disordered
tuavevi disordinatoyou had disordered
lui/leiaveva disordinatohe/she/it had disordered
noiavevamo disordinatowe had disordered
voiavevate disordinatoyou (pl.) had disordered
loroavevano disordinatothey had disordered

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 disordinato
tuavresti disordinato
lui/leiavrebbe disordinato
noiavremmo disordinato
voiavreste disordinato
loroavrebbero disordinato

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 disordinatoI will have disordered
tuavrai disordinatoyou will have disordered
lui/leiavrà disordinatohe/she/it will have disordered
noiavremo disordinatowe will have disordered
voiavrete disordinatoyou (pl.) will have disordered
loroavranno disordinatothey will have disordered

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
iodisordini
tudisordini
lui/leidisordini
noidisordiniamo
voidisordiniate
lorodisordinino

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
iodisordinassi
tudisordinassi
lui/leidisordinasse
noidisordinassimo
voidisordinaste
lorodisordinassero

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
tudisordina
lui/leidisordini
noidisordiniamo
voidisordinate
lorodisordinino

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 disordinare
lui/leinon disordini
noinon disordiniamo
voinon disordinate
loronon disordinino
