Plural <em>voi<\/em> is the universal &#8220;you all&#8221;: it covers a group of close friends, a mixed informal-and-formal pair, and even a roomful of clients you would each call <em>Lei<\/em> one by one. Plural <em>Loro<\/em> exists too, and it still signals an extra layer of distance and respect, but most Italians today let <em>voi<\/em> do the work.

When you address two or more people in modern Italian, reach for <em>voi<\/em> ninety-nine times out of a hundred. Use <em>Loro<\/em> only when you want to be openly ceremonious: a ma\u00eetre d&#8217; welcoming guests, a bank clerk addressing a couple of important clients, a hotel manager speaking to a family of regulars he has known for thirty years. Italians have quietly retired plural <em>Loro<\/em> from everyday speech, but it lingers in upscale service, official communications, and a few corners of Southern Italy. The rest of italian voi loro is detail: verb endings, pronouns, capital letters, and the survival of singular <em>Voi<\/em> as a Southern formal &#8220;you&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"plural-voi\">Plural voi: the all-purpose italian voi loro choice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plural <em>voi<\/em> is the workhorse of italian voi loro. It covers every situation where you address more than one person, whether the people would individually be <em>tu<\/em> or <em>Lei<\/em>. Walk into a cantina in Frascati with three friends and the host says <em>Buongiorno, accomodatevi pure<\/em>. Bring your parents and the wholesale buyer to the same tasting and the host still says <em>Voi siete attesi nella sala grande<\/em>. One <em>voi<\/em> covers all, and that is the heart of italian voi loro.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Voi siete i primi ad arrivare oggi.<br><em>You are the first to arrive today.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Avete prenotato per la degustazione delle quattro?<br><em>Did you book the four o&#8217;clock tasting?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Volete assaggiare prima il bianco o il rosso?<br><em>Do you want to taste the white or the red first?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Cari amici, siete sempre i benvenuti qui a Frascati.<br><em>Dear friends, you are always welcome here in Frascati.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Vi consiglio di partire dal Frascati Superiore.<br><em>I suggest you start with the Frascati Superiore.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Notice what happens in that fourth example. The speaker is addressing close friends with affection, but the same <em>voi siete<\/em> would work for two strangers, for a family of four, or for a roomful of clients. The second person plural form is invariable across registers: italian voi loro never requires you to &#8220;upgrade&#8221; voi to a more formal plural the way you upgrade <em>tu<\/em> to <em>Lei<\/em> in the singular. This is one of the rare moments when Italian is simpler than English: where English speakers wrestle with <em>you all, you guys, you folks, all of you<\/em>, Italian gets by with one word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"plural-loro\">Plural Loro: the very formal cousin in italian voi loro<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plural <em>Loro<\/em> still exists in italian voi loro usage, but it carries a much stronger sense of distance than singular <em>Lei<\/em> does. The contrast matters: italian voi loro is not parallel to italian tu lei. Where Italians regularly switch from <em>tu<\/em> to <em>Lei<\/em> several times a day, almost nobody switches from <em>voi<\/em> to <em>Loro<\/em> outside a handful of professional settings. Hotel managers, sommeliers in serious tasting rooms, jewellers, lawyers writing to senior clients, and the occasional grandparent in a Southern town are the people who still keep <em>Loro<\/em> alive.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sono certa che Loro saranno soddisfatti del nostro Frascati Superiore.<br><em>I am sure you will be satisfied with our Frascati Superiore.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Mi diano pure i loro cappotti, vi accompagno al tavolo.<br><em>Please give me your coats, I&#8217;ll show you to your table.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Per favore, mi dicano quando vogliono il dolce.<br><em>Please tell me when you would like dessert.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Entrino pure nella sala di degustazione, signori.<br><em>Please come into the tasting room.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Vogliono vedere la cantina sotterranea prima di pranzo?<br><em>Would you like to see the underground cellar before lunch?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two features stand out. First, the verb after <em>Loro<\/em> is the standard third person plural form: <em>saranno, diano, dicano, entrino, vogliono<\/em>. Second, the imperative borrows from the present subjunctive: <em>diano, dicano, entrino<\/em>. If you have already met the singular formal <em>Lei mi dia, Lei mi dica<\/em>, the plural <em>Loro mi diano, Loro mi dicano<\/em> is just the matching plural. As a learner, you rarely need to produce <em>Loro<\/em> yourself. But you should be able to recognise it, because waiters in good restaurants, hotel concierges, and old-school shop assistants will use it on you the moment they decide you and your companion are guests worth treating with extra care.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-task-vl-1\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83c\udfaf <strong>Mini-challenge:<\/strong> Choose between <em>voi<\/em> and <em>Loro<\/em> based on the context.<\/p>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>You&#8217;re meeting two close friends at the bar in Frascati.

You are at the cantina in Frascati with your sister, whom you call <em>tu<\/em>, and the sommelier whom you call <em>Lei<\/em>. The owner walks over and addresses all three of you. What does she say? She says <em>voi<\/em>. Plural <em>voi<\/em> swallows the mix without effort. Italian solves what English barely thinks about, because English uses the same <em>you<\/em> for everyone anyway. Italian keeps the singular distinction, then drops it the moment a second listener joins the conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Marina, Quirino, volete un altro bicchiere?<br><em>Marina, Quirino, would you like another glass?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Signora, signore, accomodatevi al tavolo vicino alla finestra.<br><em>Madam, sir, please take the table by the window.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Cara Federica, dottor Bianchi, avete tempo per una degustazione veloce?<br><em>Dear Federica, Dr. Bianchi, do you have time for a quick tasting?<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The titles inside the sentence keep the registers visible. <em>Cara Federica<\/em> is affectionate; <em>dottor Bianchi<\/em> is formal. But the verb is <em>avete<\/em>, plural <em>voi<\/em>, neutral. If the host felt the situation deserved more pomp, she could say <em>hanno tempo<\/em>, switching to <em>Loro<\/em>, but that would be a deliberate choice to elevate the moment, not the default. The default in italian voi loro is always <em>voi<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"voi-singular\">Capital Voi as a Southern singular formal in italian voi loro<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here is where italian voi loro gets historically interesting, and where the italian voi loro story splits in two. Until the early twentieth century, capital <em>Voi<\/em> was a common singular formal &#8220;you&#8221;, parallel to French <em>vous<\/em>. Then in 1938 the Fascist regime banned <em>Lei<\/em> as a foreign import from Spanish and ordered Italians to use <em>Voi<\/em> instead. The campaign failed politically, but its legacy reshaped the geography of the language: in parts of Southern Italy, especially Campania, Calabria, and Sicily, capital <em>Voi<\/em> survived as a singular formal address, often used by younger people to older family members or by shopkeepers to elderly customers. Old commercial letters from the 1950s and 1960s also use it.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Nonna, volete un altro po&#8217; di vino?<br><em>Grandma, would you like a little more wine?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Don Quirino, avete sentito la notizia del nuovo sindaco?<br><em>Mr. Quirino, have you heard the news about the new mayor?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Signora Marina, vi prego di accomodarvi.<br><em>Mrs. Marina, please take a seat.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For non-native learners the italian voi loro advice is simple: recognise singular <em>Voi<\/em> when you hear it in Naples or Palermo, but stick to <em>Lei<\/em> yourself. Using singular <em>Voi<\/em> as a non-Italian sounds either old-fashioned or like a beginner who has just learned French and is mapping <em>vous<\/em> directly onto Italian. Treccani flags it as <em>decisamente sconsigliabile<\/em>, &#8220;decidedly inadvisable&#8221;, for learners. The plural <em>voi<\/em> we covered above is completely different: that one is the everyday &#8220;you all&#8221;, and it has nothing to do with the Southern formal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"verb-endings\">Italian voi loro verb endings at a glance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The italian voi loro verb endings are the standard second person plural for <em>voi<\/em> and third person plural for <em>Loro<\/em>. Nothing exotic, but worth pinning down for the present tense and the present subjunctive, since the subjunctive is what powers the formal imperative side of italian voi loro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table>\n<thead><tr><th>Verb<\/th><th>voi (present)<\/th><th>Loro (present)<\/th><th>Loro (imperative)<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr><td>essere<\/td><td>siete<\/td><td>sono<\/td><td>siano<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>avere<\/td><td>avete<\/td><td>hanno<\/td><td>abbiano<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>parlare<\/td><td>parlate<\/td><td>parlano<\/td><td>parlino<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>prendere<\/td><td>prendete<\/td><td>prendono<\/td><td>prendano<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>venire<\/td><td>venite<\/td><td>vengono<\/td><td>vengano<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>volere<\/td><td>volete<\/td><td>vogliono<\/td><td>vogliano<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>dare<\/td><td>date<\/td><td>danno<\/td><td>diano<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>dire<\/td><td>dite<\/td><td>dicono<\/td><td>dicano<\/td><\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pattern is steady: <em>voi<\/em> takes <em>-ate, -ete, -ite<\/em> in the present indicative, while <em>Loro<\/em> takes <em>-ano, -ono<\/em>. For the polite imperative with <em>Loro<\/em>, the verb shifts to the present subjunctive: <em>siano, abbiano, parlino, prendano, vengano, diano, dicano<\/em>. You hear these forms in upscale restaurants and luxury hotels: <em>Si accomodino, signori<\/em>, &#8220;Please take a seat, ladies and gentlemen&#8221;, is the third-person-plural twin of the singular <em>Si accomodi<\/em> a waiter would say to one person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"object-pronouns\">Italian voi loro object pronouns: vi, Li, Le, Loro<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Each italian voi loro address form drags a small set of object pronouns along with it. For plural <em>voi<\/em>, the pronoun is <em>vi<\/em>, exactly the same form for direct object, indirect object, and reflexive. It also appears in the possessive as <em>vostro, vostra, vostri, vostre<\/em>. For plural <em>Loro<\/em>, the pronouns split: <em>Li<\/em> for a male or mixed group as direct object, <em>Le<\/em> for a female group as direct object, and <em>Loro<\/em> for the indirect object (placed after the verb, not before). The possessive is <em>Loro<\/em>, written capital in formal contexts.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Vi accompagno al tavolo, signori.<br><em>I&#8217;ll show you to your table.<\/em> (voi, mixed group)<\/li>\n<li>Li accompagno al tavolo, signori.<br><em>I&#8217;ll show you to your table.<\/em> (Loro, male\/mixed group, formal)<\/li>\n<li>Le accompagno al tavolo, signore.<br><em>I&#8217;ll show you to your table.<\/em> (Loro, female group, formal)<\/li>\n<li>Vi servo subito.<br><em>I&#8217;ll serve you right away.<\/em> (voi, direct object)<\/li>\n<li>Servo loro subito il vino.<br><em>I&#8217;ll serve you the wine right away.<\/em> (Loro, indirect object, after the verb)<\/li>\n<li>Posso prendere le vostre giacche?<br><em>May I take your jackets?<\/em> (voi possessive)<\/li>\n<li>Mi diano le loro borse, per favore.<br><em>Please give me your bags.<\/em> (Loro possessive in highly formal context)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <em>Loro<\/em> indirect pronoun sitting after the verb is one of the strongest formality markers in modern italian voi loro usage. When a sommelier in Frascati says <em>Porto loro la lista dei vini fra un momento<\/em>, the late position of <em>loro<\/em> announces that the speakers are guests deserving extra deference. In neutral plural, the same idea would be <em>Vi porto la lista dei vini fra un momento<\/em>. The information is identical; the register is not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"agreement\">Italian voi loro agreement with mixed-gender groups<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When italian voi loro forms refer to a mixed-gender group, agreement follows the standard rule for plurals in Italian: the masculine plural form covers any group containing at least one man. With an all-female group, the agreement shifts to feminine. The same logic applies to past participles in compound tenses, to adjectives in predicate position, and to the direct object pronouns of <em>Loro<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Voi siete arrivati presto. <em>(mixed group or all male)<\/em><br><em>You arrived early.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Voi siete arrivate presto. <em>(all-female group)<\/em><br><em>You arrived early.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Loro sono attesi nella sala grande. <em>(Loro, mixed\/male)<\/em><br><em>You are expected in the main hall.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Loro sono attese nella sala grande. <em>(Loro, all female)<\/em><br><em>You are expected in the main hall.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Cari amici, siete molto gentili. <em>(mixed or male, neutral)<\/em><br><em>Dear friends, you are very kind.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Care amiche, siete molto gentili. <em>(all female)<\/em><br><em>Dear friends, you are very kind.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One sommelier showing two female customers to a tasting will say <em>Le accompagno io<\/em>, not <em>Li accompagno io<\/em>, because <em>Le<\/em> is the direct object pronoun for a female group under the formal <em>Loro<\/em>. Get this right and you sound polished; get it wrong and an Italian listener will register a small bump, the way an English ear notices &#8220;they was&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"capital-letters\">Italian voi loro capital letters in writing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Italian uses capital letters as a courtesy marker in formal correspondence, and italian voi loro inherits the same convention. Singular formal <em>Lei<\/em> is regularly capitalised when it refers to the addressee, and so are the matching object pronouns <em>La, Le, Si<\/em> and the possessive <em>Suo<\/em>. The same logic extends to formal plural <em>Loro<\/em>: in a business letter to two senior clients, you would write <em>Vi ringraziamo della Loro visita<\/em>, with capital <em>Loro<\/em>. For Southern singular <em>Voi<\/em>, the capital is also traditional. In informal emails and texts, all of this is dropped: lower-case is the default, and only the very formal letters keep the courtesy capital alive.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Gentili Signori, Li ringraziamo della Loro recente visita alla cantina.<br><em>Dear Sirs, we thank you for your recent visit to the winery.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Vi confermiamo la prenotazione del tavolo per il sette giugno.<br><em>We confirm your table reservation for the seventh of June.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Siamo lieti di invitarLi alla nostra festa della vendemmia.<br><em>We are pleased to invite you to our harvest festival.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a casual text message to a friend, capitalisation is a non-issue: just write <em>vi aspetto sabato<\/em>. The capital letter convention is the writing equivalent of standing up when an important guest enters the room: nobody penalises you for sitting down with friends, but standing up is the right move when the moment calls for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"five-traps\">Five italian voi loro traps where English speakers get it wrong<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These are the five italian voi loro mistakes English speakers tend to make most often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"trap-1\">Trap 1: Treating Loro as the natural plural of Lei<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most common italian voi loro assumption: if Lei is the singular formal, then Loro must be the plural formal, the way &#8220;Sie&#8221; plural mirrors &#8220;Sie&#8221; singular in German. Italian does not behave that way. Plural <em>voi<\/em> is the everyday plural for any combination of addressees, formal or informal. Use <em>Loro<\/em> only when you are intentionally reaching for ceremonious distance. Saying <em>Loro sanno che il treno \u00e8 in ritardo?<\/em> to two casual acquaintances at the station sounds stilted, almost theatrical. <em>Sapete che il treno \u00e8 in ritardo?<\/em> with plain <em>voi<\/em> is the natural choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"trap-2\">Trap 2: Using Voi singular outside Southern Italy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tourists who learned French first sometimes default to singular <em>Voi<\/em> as the formal &#8220;you&#8221;, mapping it onto French <em>vous<\/em>. In Tuscany, Lazio, Lombardy, or Veneto this sounds antiquated. The standard singular formal is <em>Lei<\/em>. Singular <em>Voi<\/em> survives in parts of Southern Italy and in some literary registers, but a non-native speaker using it in Florence or Milan signals &#8220;I learned my Italian from old novels&#8221; rather than &#8220;I speak modern Italian&#8221;. Stick to <em>Lei<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"trap-3\">Trap 3: Forgetting the Loro imperative comes from the subjunctive<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The polite plural imperative inside italian voi loro is not <em>dicono, vengono, entrano<\/em>. It is <em>dicano, vengano, entrino<\/em>, borrowed from the present subjunctive. <em>Mi dicano la verit\u00e0<\/em> is correct; <em>Mi dicono la verit\u00e0<\/em> would be a present indicative statement, not a request. The same shift applies to all <em>Loro<\/em> commands: <em>siano gentili, abbiano pazienza, vengano avanti, prendano posto<\/em>. If you have already learned the singular <em>si accomodi<\/em>, the plural <em>si accomodino<\/em> is just one syllable away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"trap-4\">Trap 4: Confusing plural Loro with the third person Loro<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The italian voi loro confusion deepens because <em>loro<\/em> also means &#8220;they&#8221;, the third-person plural subject pronoun. Context tells you which is which. <em>Loro arrivano alle otto<\/em> with lower-case <em>loro<\/em> usually means &#8220;they arrive at eight&#8221;. <em>Loro arrivano alle otto?<\/em> said to a couple of senior clients with raised eyebrows could be a polite question to them directly. In writing, the capital letter makes it explicit. In speech, the situation makes it obvious: a sommelier addressing two people in front of her does not mean somebody else when she says <em>loro<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"trap-5\">Trap 5: Mismatching gender agreement with mixed groups<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A mixed italian voi loro group always takes masculine plural agreement: <em>siete arrivati<\/em>, not <em>siete arrivate<\/em>. The exception is when the group is entirely female. English speakers, especially those who have studied Spanish, sometimes slip into &#8220;default feminine&#8221; if the group leans female. Italian is strict: one man in a group of nine women still produces masculine plural agreement. The same rule applies to the direct object pronouns of <em>Loro<\/em>: <em>Li accompagno<\/em> for any mixed group, <em>Le accompagno<\/em> only for an all-female group.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-task-vl-2\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83c\udfaf <strong>Mini-challenge:<\/strong> Fix the mistake in each sentence.<\/p>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Loro avete prenotato per le quattro?

Marina runs a small family cantina on the slopes of the Castelli Romani above Frascati. Quirino is visiting from Naples for the first time, helping his elderly aunt who has joined him at a tasting. Notice how Marina switches between plain <em>voi<\/em> with the group, more formal <em>Loro<\/em> with the senior couple at the next table, and Quirino slips into Southern <em>Voi<\/em> with his aunt.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-dialog-vl\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udc69\ud83c\udffc\u200d\ud83e\uddb0 <strong>Marina:<\/strong> Buongiorno, siete voi che avete prenotato la degustazione delle quattro?<br><em>Good afternoon, are you the ones who booked the four o&#8217;clock tasting?<\/em><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udc68\ud83c\udffd\u200d\ud83e\uddb1 <strong>Quirino:<\/strong> S\u00ec, siamo noi.

The semantic distinction is documented in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treccani.it\/vocabolario\/voi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Treccani vocabolario entry on voi<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/accademiadellacrusca.it\/it\/consulenza\/lei-voi-loro-le-buone-maniere-degli-allocutivi\/86\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Accademia della Crusca article on allocutivi<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list \">\n<div id=\"faq-vl-q1\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Do I use voi or Loro when talking to two people I&#8217;d address as Lei one by one?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>In modern italian voi loro practice, you almost always default to voi. Plural voi is the universal plural address form: it works for a pair of close friends, a pair of clients, or a mixed group. Loro still exists for very formal contexts (upscale restaurants, hotels, commercial letters), but most Italians have retired it from daily speech. Saying voi to two clients is polite enough and sounds natural. Saying Loro signals a deliberate extra layer of formality, which is welcome in some service contexts and out of place in casual ones.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-vl-q2\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Is the Southern Italian singular Voi something I should learn?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Recognise it as part of italian voi loro history, but don&#8217;t use it. Singular Voi as a formal you survives in parts of Campania, Calabria, and Sicily, where younger people sometimes address elderly relatives or shopkeepers with Voi. The use comes from a centuries-old custom plus the Fascist regime&#8217;s 1938 attempt to replace Lei with Voi. For non-native learners, the modern standard singular formal is Lei across all of Italy. Using singular Voi in Florence or Milan sounds either antiquated or like a French speaker mapping vous onto Italian. Stick to Lei.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-vl-q3\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">How does past participle agreement work with voi?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>With voi in compound tenses, the past participle agrees with the gender and number of the addressees. A mixed group or an all-male group takes masculine plural: siete arrivati presto. An all-female group takes feminine plural: siete arrivate presto. The same rule applies to predicate adjectives: voi siete molto gentili (mixed or male), and voi siete contente shifts to feminine if the group is all female. Italian follows the standard one-male-makes-it-masculine convention.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-vl-q4\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">How do I capitalize Voi and Loro in writing?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>In formal italian voi loro correspondence, capitalize the plural Loro and its object forms (La, Li, Le) when they refer to the addressees, just as you capitalize singular Lei in formal letters. Examples: Li ringraziamo della Loro visita, Siamo lieti di invitarLi. In informal emails and texts, no capitals: just vi aspetto sabato. The Southern singular Voi is traditionally capitalized when used formally. The capital letter is a courtesy convention, not a grammar rule: it tells the reader you are treating them as a respected addressee.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-vl-q5\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Are Loro forms still used in commercial letters?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Yes, italian voi loro Loro forms survive in old-style business correspondence, especially in legal, banking, and luxury hospitality contexts. A formal letter might read: Gentili Signori, Li ringraziamo della Loro cortese richiesta. However, modern business letters increasingly default to singular Lei or to plain voi, even when writing to multiple people. The Loro register survives most strongly in highly traditional sectors and in correspondence with senior clients. If you are unsure, plain voi is safer than mismatched Loro.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-vl-q6\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">What verb endings do I use after voi and Loro?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>After voi, the verb takes standard second person plural endings: -ate, -ete, -ite in the present (parlate, prendete, venite). After Loro, the verb takes standard third person plural endings: -ano, -ono (parlano, prendono, vengono). For the polite imperative with Loro, the verb shifts to the present subjunctive: parlino, prendano, vengano, dicano, diano. This is the same pattern as the singular formal imperative with Lei: Lei mi dica becomes Loro mi dicano in the plural.<\/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<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dante-learning.com\/eng\/italian-vostra-eminenza-santita\/\">Italian Vostra Eminenza, Vostra Santit\u00e0: Living Titles (C1)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dante-learning.com\/eng\/italian-article-with-names\/\">Italian Article with Names: La Maria, Il Manzoni (B1)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dante-learning.com\/eng\/italian-imperative-conditional\/\">Italian Vieni e Ti Spiego, Taci o&#8230;: Imperative + E\/O (A2)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dante-learning.com\/eng\/italian-dunque-quindi-percio\/\">Italian Dunque, Quindi, Perci\u00f2: &#8216;So&#8217; and &#8216;Therefore&#8217; (A2)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.treccani.it\/vocabolario\/voi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Treccani: voi<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ud83d\udd0d In short.
