Questions & Answers about Ti assicuro che tutto è pronto.

Why is it ti assicuro and not tu assicuro?

Because ti and tu do different jobs.

• tu = you as the subject of the verb
• ti = you as the object of the verb

In Ti assicuro, the subject is understood as I:

• (Io) ti assicuro = I assure you

So ti means you in I assure you, not you assure.

Italian often leaves out subject pronouns like io, because the verb already shows who is doing the action.

• I assure
• I reassure (depending on context)
