riabilitare — Italian conjugation
to rehabilitate
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.
| Pronoun | Italian | English |
|---|---|---|
| io | riabilito | I rehabilitate |
| tu | riabiliti | you rehabilitate |
| lui/lei | riabilita | he/she/it rehabilitates |
| noi | riabilitiamo | we rehabilitate |
| voi | riabilitate | you (pl.) rehabilitate |
| loro | riabilitano | they rehabilitate |
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.
| Pronoun | Italian | English |
|---|---|---|
| io | riabilitai | I rehabilitated |
| tu | riabilitasti | you rehabilitated |
| lui/lei | riabilitò | he/she/it rehabilitated |
| noi | riabilitammo | we rehabilitated |
| voi | riabilitaste | you (pl.) rehabilitated |
| loro | riabilitarono | they rehabilitated |
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.
| Pronoun | Italian |
|---|---|
| io | riabilitavo |
| tu | riabilitavi |
| lui/lei | riabilitava |
| noi | riabilitavamo |
| voi | riabilitavate |
| loro | riabilitavano |
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?
| Pronoun | Italian | English |
|---|---|---|
| io | riabiliterei | I would rehabilitate |
| tu | riabiliteresti | you would rehabilitate |
| lui/lei | riabiliterebbe | he/she/it would rehabilitate |
| noi | riabiliteremmo | we would rehabilitate |
| voi | riabilitereste | you (pl.) would rehabilitate |
| loro | riabiliterebbero | they would rehabilitate |
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.
| Pronoun | Italian | English |
|---|---|---|
| io | riabiliterò | I will rehabilitate |
| tu | riabiliterai | you will rehabilitate |
| lui/lei | riabiliterà | he/she/it will rehabilitate |
| noi | riabiliteremo | we will rehabilitate |
| voi | riabiliterete | you (pl.) will rehabilitate |
| loro | riabiliteranno | they will rehabilitate |
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.
| Pronoun | Italian | English |
|---|---|---|
| io | ho riabilitato | I have rehabilitated |
| tu | hai riabilitato | you have rehabilitated |
| lui/lei | ha riabilitato | he/she/it has rehabilitated |
| noi | abbiamo riabilitato | we have rehabilitated |
| voi | avete riabilitato | you (pl.) have rehabilitated |
| loro | hanno riabilitato | they have rehabilitated |
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.
| Pronoun | Italian | English |
|---|---|---|
| io | avevo riabilitato | I had rehabilitated |
| tu | avevi riabilitato | you had rehabilitated |
| lui/lei | aveva riabilitato | he/she/it had rehabilitated |
| noi | avevamo riabilitato | we had rehabilitated |
| voi | avevate riabilitato | you (pl.) had rehabilitated |
| loro | avevano riabilitato | they had rehabilitated |
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.
| Pronoun | Italian |
|---|---|
| io | avrei riabilitato |
| tu | avresti riabilitato |
| lui/lei | avrebbe riabilitato |
| noi | avremmo riabilitato |
| voi | avreste riabilitato |
| loro | avrebbero riabilitato |
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.
| Pronoun | Italian | English |
|---|---|---|
| io | avrò riabilitato | I will have rehabilitated |
| tu | avrai riabilitato | you will have rehabilitated |
| lui/lei | avrà riabilitato | he/she/it will have rehabilitated |
| noi | avremo riabilitato | we will have rehabilitated |
| voi | avrete riabilitato | you (pl.) will have rehabilitated |
| loro | avranno riabilitato | they will have rehabilitated |
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.
| Pronoun | Italian |
|---|---|
| io | riabiliti |
| tu | riabiliti |
| lui/lei | riabiliti |
| noi | riabilitiamo |
| voi | riabilitiate |
| loro | riabilitino |
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.
| Pronoun | Italian |
|---|---|
| io | riabilitassi |
| tu | riabilitassi |
| lui/lei | riabilitasse |
| noi | riabilitassimo |
| voi | riabilitaste |
| loro | riabilitassero |
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.
| Pronoun | Italian |
|---|---|
| tu | riabilita |
| lui/lei | riabiliti |
| noi | riabilitiamo |
| voi | riabilitate |
| loro | riabilitino |
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.
| Pronoun | Italian |
|---|---|
| tu | non riabilitare |
| lui/lei | non riabiliti |
| noi | non riabilitiamo |
| voi | non riabilitate |
| loro | non riabilitino |
