Questions & Answers about Facciamo molta attenzione.
The translation says "we pay", but isn't facciamo from the verb fare (to do/make)?
Is facciamo irregular, or does it follow the normal rules for verbs ending in -are?
Fare is a highly irregular verb. While the -iamo ending is the standard "we" ending for Italian verbs, the stem changes completely. Instead of building on "f-", it builds on "facc-" (from an older Latin root). This gives us facciamo, which is a form you will just need to memorize!
Why is the word for "a lot" written as molta instead of molto?
Where is the word for "we" (noi) in this sentence?
