Usage notesEdit
loro (“to them”) is mostly restricted to formal communication. In regular usage gli is used instead, which avoids the following irregularities of loro:
- loro almost always follows the verb
- Parlerò loro. ― I'll talk to them.
- loro generally follows the past participle
- Ho detto loro. ― I told them.
- loro always follows other clitics
- loro is never attached to the verb or other clitics
