Italian
Pronoun
-lo
- (enclitic) alternative form of lo
Usage notes
- Appended to present active infinitive verb forms to derive accusative forms when the object is third singular masculine person. Also appended to second singular person imperative forms. The final -e of the original infinitive is removed :
Where the verb ends in -rre, the final re is removed, leaving behind just an -r:
- introdurre (“to introduce”) → introdurlo (“to introduce him”)
In any case, after the suffixation, there is only a single r and no vowels immediately before -lo.
