Learn Italian: Attacchiamo subito, stiamo perdendo! - Let's attack immediately, we are losing!

In Italian, the noi (we) form of the imperative is exactly the same as the regular present tense form. You can tell it is being used as a command here ("let's attack") because of the urgent context and the exclamation mark at the end of the sentence.

Why is there an 'h' in the middle of attacchiamo?

The base verb is attaccare, which has a hard "c" sound (like a "k"). When conjugating verbs ending in -care or -gare, you must add an h before endings that start with i or e to keep that hard sound. Without the h, it would be pronounced with a soft "ch" sound like in the word "ciao".

How does stiamo perdendo translate to "we are losing"?

This uses the Italian present continuous tense, which highlights an action happening right at this exact moment. It is formed by conjugating the helping verb stare (here as stiamo, meaning "we are") and adding the gerund form of the main verb, which for perdere (to lose) is perdendo (losing).
