The verb agrees with the thing (<em>piace<\/em> \/ <em>piacciono<\/em>), the compound tenses always take <em>essere<\/em> with participle agreement (<em>mi \u00e8 piaciuta<\/em>), and nine more verbs copy the pattern (<em>mancare, servire, bastare<\/em>&#8230;).

That is the easy 20%. The other 80%, the part that actually trips up B1 and B2 learners, is italian piacere in the passato prossimo, the conditional, the subjunctive and reported speech.

The shortcut holds for a few weeks, then it cracks: a student writes <em>mi piace i libri<\/em>, or <em>lui si piace correre<\/em>, and nothing agrees any more. The problem is that italian piacere is not the verb &#8220;to like&#8221; at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Italian has no direct verb for &#8220;to like&#8221;. What it has is <em>piacere<\/em>, which means roughly &#8220;to be pleasing&#8221;. The person who enjoys something is not the subject; the thing enjoyed is. Once you flip the sentence in your head, the pronouns, the agreement, the participle and the nine copycat verbs all fall into line.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-focus-pi-1\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<p>\ud83d\udd0d <strong>The bridge.<\/strong> <em>Before translating, rephrase the English as &#8220;X is pleasing to Y&#8221;. &#8220;I like wine&#8221; becomes &#8220;Wine is pleasing to me&#8221;, which slides straight into Mi piace il vino. The ugly rephrase is the whole trick behind italian piacere.<\/em><\/p>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"the-flip\">What you like is the subject<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Put two sentences side by side and the flip in italian piacere becomes visible.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Mi piace la birra.<\/em><br>Beer is pleasing to me. (I like beer.)<\/li>\n<li><em>Mi piacciono i libri gialli.<\/em><br>Crime novels are pleasing to me. (I like crime novels.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p>In English, <em>I<\/em> is the subject and <em>beer<\/em> the object. In Italian it flips: <em>la birra<\/em> is the subject, <em>mi<\/em> (&#8220;to me&#8221;) is the indirect object. That single inversion is why the verb shifts from <em>piace<\/em> to <em>piacciono<\/em>: it agrees with the thing, not with you. Grammarians call piacere a &#8220;psych verb&#8221;, where the experiencer is not the subject.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"piace-piacciono\">Piace or piacciono?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In almost every real sentence you only need two forms of italian piacere: <em>piace<\/em> (singular subject) and <em>piacciono<\/em> (plural subject). You choose based on the thing liked.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Mi piace il silenzio della domenica mattina.<\/em><br>I like the Sunday-morning quiet.<\/li>\n<li><em>Mi piacciono le giornate di vento al mare.<\/em><br>I like windy days at the seaside.<\/li>\n<li><em>A Lucia piace camminare in collina.<\/em><br>Lucia likes walking in the hills. (subject = the infinitive, singular)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p>With one or more infinitives the verb stays singular: <em>Le piace leggere e dipingere<\/em>. The other persons exist too (<em>tu mi piaci<\/em>, &#8220;I like you&#8221;), and they obey the same logic: whoever is liked becomes the subject of italian piacere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"pronouns\">The indirect pronouns you need<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The person who enjoys the thing appears as an indirect pronoun before italian piacere. The full set, with stressed alternatives for emphasis:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Person<\/th><th>Pronoun<\/th><th>Example<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>io<\/td><td><strong>mi<\/strong> (a me)<\/td><td>Mi piace il caff\u00e8 ristretto.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>tu<\/td><td><strong>ti<\/strong> (a te)<\/td><td>Ti piacciono i film d&#8217;autore?<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>lui<\/td><td><strong>gli<\/strong> (a lui)<\/td><td>Gli piace la birra artigianale.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>lei<\/td><td><strong>le<\/strong> (a lei)<\/td><td>Le piace il rumore della pioggia.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>noi<\/td><td><strong>ci<\/strong> (a noi)<\/td><td>Ci piacciono i mercati dell&#8217;usato.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>voi<\/td><td><strong>vi<\/strong> (a voi)<\/td><td>Vi piace viaggiare in treno?<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>loro<\/td><td><strong>gli<\/strong> (a loro)<\/td><td>Gli piacciono i film muti.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"a-marco\">Making it specific: a Marco piace<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When you name the person instead of using a pronoun, italian piacere needs the preposition <em>a<\/em> before the name.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>A Lorenzo piace il jazz.<\/em><br>Lorenzo likes jazz.<\/li>\n<li><em>Alla mia famiglia piacciono le vacanze in montagna.<\/em><br>My family likes mountain holidays.<\/li>\n<li><em>Ai bambini piace giocare in cortile.<\/em><br>The children like playing in the courtyard.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p>Forgetting that <em>a<\/em> is the single most common structural error with italian piacere: <em>Lorenzo piace il jazz<\/em> is wrong; it must be <em>A Lorenzo piace il jazz<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"passato-prossimo\">Passato prossimo: essere and agreement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is where italian piacere starts to separate the B1 learner from the A2 one. In compound tenses the auxiliary is always <em>essere<\/em>, never <em>avere<\/em>, and the past participle agrees with the subject (the thing liked).<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Mi \u00e8 piaciuto il concerto.<\/em> (masculine singular)<\/li>\n<li><em>Mi \u00e8 piaciuta la mostra.<\/em> (feminine singular)<\/li>\n<li><em>Mi sono piaciuti i quadri.<\/em> (masculine plural)<\/li>\n<li><em>Non mi sono piaciute le foto.<\/em> (feminine plural, negative)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-focus-pi-2\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<p>\ud83d\udd0d <strong>Never avere.<\/strong> <em>Mi ha piaciuto is always wrong.

Italian piacere lives in every tense and mood, and the hard part is the compound and subjunctive forms. One block per tense, with <em>piacere<\/em> and the verbs that copy it. Read each group aloud and watch the verb and the participle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Presente<\/strong>: the verb agrees with the thing liked, not with you.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>A Caterina piace il jazz, ma non le piacciono i locali affollati.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Mi manca Lucca; a Lorenzo mancano gli amici di Padova.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Non ci serve altro: ci bastano due sedie e un tavolo.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p><strong>Passato prossimo<\/strong>: always <em>essere<\/em>, participle agrees, including in the negative.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Il concerto mi \u00e8 piaciuto, ma le foto non mi sono piaciute per niente.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Ti sono piaciuti i libri che ti ho prestato?<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>A Elena \u00e8 dispiaciuta la notizia; in quei mesi ci sono mancati molto.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p><strong>Imperfetto<\/strong>: habit or background in the past.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Da bambino mi piaceva il mare, ma non mi piacevano le partenze all&#8217;alba.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Quando vivevo a Modena mi mancava il dialetto di casa.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p><strong>Futuro<\/strong>: a prediction, often reassuring someone.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Questo vino ti piacer\u00e0; vi piaceranno anche le colline intorno a Lucca.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Per il trasloco ci serviranno pi\u00f9 scatoloni di quanti pensi.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p><strong>Condizionale presente<\/strong>: a wish or a polite request, the form you will use most after the present.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Mi piacerebbe trasferirmi a Padova; a te piacerebbe venire a trovarmi?<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Ci servirebbe una mano sabato, se non ti dispiace.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p><strong>Condizionale passato<\/strong>: regret about the past, or the &#8220;future seen from the past&#8221; after a past verb.

With italian piacere the auxiliary never changes, always <em>essere<\/em>, so all your attention goes on the ending of <em>piaciuto \/ piaciuta \/ piaciuti \/ piaciute<\/em> and on which tense the situation needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"verbs-like\">Nine verbs that copy piacere<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The good news about italian piacere: once you own it, nine more high-frequency verbs come free, because they use the identical flipped construction.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>mancare<\/em> (to be missing \/ to miss): <em>Mi manca mia sorella.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>servire<\/em> (to be needed): <em>Ti serve aiuto?<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>bastare<\/em> (to be enough): <em>Mi bastano cinque minuti.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>occorrere<\/em> (to be necessary): <em>Ci occorre pi\u00f9 tempo.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>interessare<\/em> (to be of interest): <em>Non gli interessa la politica.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>sembrare \/ parere<\/em> (to seem): <em>Mi sembra giusto.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>restare<\/em> (to be left): <em>Mi restano due euro.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>dispiacere<\/em> (to be sorry \/ to mind): <em>Ti dispiace se apro la finestra?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p>They all flip the same way and all take <em>essere<\/em> in the compound tenses, so the agreement you learned for italian piacere transfers wholesale: <em>mi sono mancati<\/em>, <em>ci sarebbero serviti<\/em>, <em>non le \u00e8 dispiaciuta<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"double-life\">Double-life verbs: restare, servire, parere<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Three of the copycats are tricky because they live a double life. Used like italian piacere they take the flipped construction; used normally they are ordinary verbs with their own subject. Same verb, two grammars.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>restare<\/em>: flipped, &#8220;to be left&#8221; &rarr; <em>Mi restano due giorni di ferie.<\/em> \u00b7 ordinary, &#8220;to stay&#8221; &rarr; <em>Resto a casa stasera.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>servire<\/em>: flipped, &#8220;to be needed&#8221; &rarr; <em>Ti serve una mano?<\/em> \u00b7 ordinary, &#8220;to serve&#8221; &rarr; <em>Il cameriere serve il vino.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>parere<\/em>: flipped, &#8220;to seem to someone&#8221; &rarr; <em>Mi pare giusto.<\/em> \u00b7 as a plain &#8220;to seem&#8221; &rarr; <em>Pare stanco.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p>The clue is always the indirect pronoun. If you see <em>mi, ti, gli, le, ci, vi<\/em> in front, the verb is behaving like italian piacere and the noun after it is the subject; with no indirect pronoun it is the ordinary verb. Read <em>mi resta poco tempo<\/em> versus <em>resto poco tempo<\/em> and you hear two different grammars in the same word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"register\">A me mi piace: the register trap<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One nuance separates a fluent speaker from a careless one. In speech you will constantly hear <em>a me mi piace<\/em>, with the pronoun doubled.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Spoken, very common, dialectal: <em>A me mi piace il mare.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Standard, written and formal: <em>A me piace il mare.<\/em> or simply <em>Mi piace il mare.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p>The doubled form is normal in casual conversation across all Italian dialects, but it is judged incorrect in writing and formal Italian and is best avoided by learners. Recognise <em>a me mi piace<\/em> when you hear it; produce <em>a me piace<\/em> or <em>mi piace<\/em>. Getting this register line right is a B1-and-up marker with italian piacere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mistakes\">Common mistakes English speakers make<\/h2>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Using <em>avere<\/em> in compound tenses: not <em>mi ha piaciuto<\/em> but <em>mi \u00e8 piaciuto<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Agreeing the verb with the person: not <em>mi piaccio i libri<\/em> but <em>mi piacciono i libri<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Treating it as reflexive: not <em>lui si piace correre<\/em> but <em>gli piace correre<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Dropping <em>a<\/em> before a named person: not <em>Lorenzo piace il jazz<\/em> but <em>A Lorenzo piace il jazz<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Forgetting participle agreement: not <em>le foto non mi \u00e8 piaciuto<\/em> but <em>non mi sono piaciute<\/em>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dialog\">Dialog: an enoteca in Lucca<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Caterina and Lorenzo are tasting wine at an enoteca in Lucca.

The answers below draw on classroom usage and on the Treccani entry <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treccani.it\/vocabolario\/piacere\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">verbi psicologici<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list \">\n<div id=\"faq-pi-q1\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Why does Italian piacere work backwards compared to English?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Because piacere does not mean to like, it means to be pleasing. The thing enjoyed is the grammatical subject and the person is the indirect object: Mi piace il vino is literally Wine is pleasing to me. That single inversion explains the pronouns, the verb agreement and the participle. Grammar calls it a psych verb, where the experiencer is not the subject.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-pi-q2\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">When do I use piace and when piacciono?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>You match the verb to the thing liked, not to the person. One thing or an infinitive takes piace (mi piace il caffe, mi piace leggere); more than one thing takes piacciono (mi piacciono i libri). Two infinitives stay singular: le piace leggere e dipingere.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-pi-q3\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Is it mi e piaciuto or mi ha piaciuto?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Always essere: mi e piaciuto, never mi ha piaciuto. In every compound tense piacere takes essere, and the participle agrees with the thing liked: mi e piaciuta la mostra, mi sono piaciuti i quadri, non mi sono piaciute le foto.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-pi-q4\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">What is the difference between mi piacerebbe and mi sarebbe piaciuto?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Mi piacerebbe (conditional present) is a present or future wish: mi piacerebbe trasferirmi a Padova. Mi sarebbe piaciuto (conditional past) is a regret about something that did not happen, or the future seen from a past point: mi sarebbe piaciuto restare; disse che gli sarebbe piaciuto il regalo.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-pi-q5\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Which subjunctive form of piacere do I use?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>With a present main verb use the present subjunctive: penso che ti piaccia. With a past main verb use the imperfect subjunctive for contemporaneity: pensavo che ti piacesse. For a past regret-style hypothetical use the trapassato: se mi fosse piaciuta la casa, sarei rimasto.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-pi-q6\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Is a me mi piace correct?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>It is extremely common in speech and in all Italian dialects, but it is considered incorrect in writing and formal Italian because the pronoun is doubled. Say and write a me piace or simply mi piace. Recognise a me mi piace when you hear it, but do not produce it in careful Italian.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-pi-q7\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Which other verbs work like piacere?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Nine high-frequency ones: mancare, servire, bastare, occorrere, interessare, sembrare, parere, restare, dispiacere. They all flip the same way and all take essere in compound tenses, so the agreement you learned for piacere transfers directly: mi sono mancati, ci sarebbero serviti, non le e dispiaciuta.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related\">Related guides<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Three guides that sit next to italian piacere in the verbs cluster, plus the institutional reference.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dante-learning.com\/eng\/italian-conditional\/\">Italian Conditional<\/a>: mi piacerebbe and mi sarebbe piaciuto in full.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dante-learning.com\/eng\/italian-subjunctive-tenses\/\">Italian Subjunctive Tenses<\/a>: che mi piaccia, che mi piacesse, the matching rule.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dante-learning.com\/eng\/sequence-tenses-la-concordanza-dei-tempi-il-modo-indicativo-quiz-webcast\/\">Italian Sequence of Tenses<\/a>: why disse che gli sarebbe piaciuto.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.treccani.it\/vocabolario\/piacere\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Treccani: verbi psicologici<\/a>: institutional reference.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ud83d\udd0d In short.
