The pattern packs a whole relative clause into two words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This guide on <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong> walks through the most common patterns: <em>qualcosa da bere<\/em>, <em>niente da fare<\/em>, <em>molto da dire<\/em>, the colloquial <em>ho da lavorare<\/em>, and the very useful <em>c&#8217;\u00e8 da<\/em> structure. <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong> are everywhere in real speech, from a bar order to a worried text from a friend. Examples come from a fishing day in the <em>valli di Comacchio<\/em>, where Selvaggia and Igino always seem to have something to mend, label, or eat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By the end of this guide on <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong> you will pick the right English equivalent (&#8220;to read&#8221; or &#8220;to be read&#8221; or &#8220;for reading&#8221;) without translating word by word, and you will know when <em>da + infinitive<\/em> sounds natural and when a full relative clause with <em>che<\/em> works better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\" \/>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-toc-da-inf\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n<p><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-toc-h\" style=\"text-align:center;font-size:18px;font-weight:600\">Cosa impareremo oggi<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udc46\ud83c\udffb Jump to sections<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"#what\">What &#8220;da + infinitive&#8221; really means<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#noun\">Noun + da + infinitive: un libro da leggere<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#pronoun\">After indefinite pronouns: qualcosa da bere, niente da fare<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#quantity\">After quantity words: molto, poco, tanto, abbastanza<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#avere\">Avere da + infinitive: the colloquial &#8220;have to&#8221;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#esserci\">C&#8217;\u00e8 da, ci sarebbe da: things to be done<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#che\">When to prefer a relative clause with &#8220;che&#8221;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#fixed\">Fixed expressions: da bere, da mangiare, daffare<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#mistakes\">Common mistakes English speakers make<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#cheat-sheet\">Cheat sheet<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#dialogue\">Dialogue in the valli di Comacchio<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#challenge\">Mini-challenge<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"#faq\">Frequently asked questions<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"#quiz\">Quiz<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what\">What &#8220;da + infinitive&#8221; really means<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Picture a Sunday morning in the <em>valli di Comacchio<\/em>. The <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong> pattern shows up at every step. Selvaggia opens a wooden crate and pulls out three jars she still has to label: <em>tre vasetti <strong>da etichettare<\/strong><\/em>. In English we would say &#8220;three jars to label&#8221; or &#8220;three jars that need labelling&#8221;. Italian compresses that whole relative clause into <strong>da + infinitive<\/strong>, hanging it onto the noun like a tag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pattern signals <strong>purpose, intention, or necessity<\/strong>. <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong> always carry this slight modal flavour, &#8220;should, can, must&#8221;. The thing on the left of <em>da<\/em> is what the action will happen to. The infinitive on the right is what is supposed to happen. So <em>libro da leggere<\/em> is not &#8220;a book that reads&#8221;; it is &#8220;a book that someone will read, should read, or can read&#8221;. The grammatical subject of the infinitive is left unsaid, and the listener fills it in from context.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You will hear <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong> dozens of times a day in Italy: at the bar (<em>qualcosa da bere?<\/em>), at home (<em>ho un sacco di cose da fare<\/em>), at work (<em>c&#8217;\u00e8 ancora una mail da scrivere<\/em>). Once you spot the pattern, it stops being a translation puzzle and becomes a reflex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"noun\">Noun + da + infinitive: un libro da leggere<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The core pattern among <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong> is simple: <em>noun + da + infinitive<\/em>. The noun is the implied object of the infinitive, and <em>da<\/em> introduces what should happen to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Ho un libro <strong>da finire<\/strong> entro venerd\u00ec.<br><em>I have a book to finish by Friday.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>In cantina ci sono due casse di vino <strong>da spostare<\/strong>.<br><em>There are two crates of wine in the cellar that need moving.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Igino mi ha portato tre reti <strong>da riparare<\/strong>.<br><em>Igino brought me three nets to mend.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Hanno una casa enorme <strong>da pulire<\/strong> ogni sabato mattina.<br><em>They have a huge house to clean every Saturday morning.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Notice how natural English alternates between &#8220;to read&#8221;, &#8220;for reading&#8221;, &#8220;that needs reading&#8221;, &#8220;which I have to read&#8221;. Italian uses one shape for all of them. A rough mental rule: if you can paraphrase the English with <em>&#8220;which someone should, can, or must X&#8221;<\/em>, the Italian equivalent is almost always <em>da + infinito<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-mini-1\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83e\udde0 <strong>Quick task.<\/strong> Rewrite each English sentence using one of the Italian da infinitive relatives patterns (noun + da + infinitive).<\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>I have three emails to write before lunch.<\/li>\n<li>She has a dress to iron for the wedding.<\/li>\n<li>We have two suitcases to pack tonight.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n<details><summary>\ud83d\udc49 Show answers<\/summary>\n<p>1.

These are some of the most frequent <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong> you will hear in real conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Selvaggia, vuoi <strong>qualcosa da bere<\/strong> mentre aspettiamo il guardiano?<br><em>Selvaggia, would you like something to drink while we wait for the warden?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Non ho <strong>niente da dire<\/strong>, \u00e8 meglio se sto zitto.<br><em>I have nothing to say, it&#8217;s better if I keep quiet.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Con questa nebbia non c&#8217;\u00e8 proprio <strong>nulla da vedere<\/strong>.<br><em>With this fog there really is nothing to see.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Avete <strong>tutto da imparare<\/strong> sulla marinatura delle anguille.<br><em>You have everything to learn about marinating eels.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong>, the fixed expression <em><strong>non c&#8217;\u00e8 niente da fare<\/strong><\/em> (&#8220;there&#8217;s nothing to be done&#8221;) is a daily-life classic. Italians use it when a situation is hopeless or stubborn: a stain that will not come out, a child who will not eat vegetables, an old printer that refuses to print.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"quantity\">After quantity words: molto, poco, tanto, abbastanza<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Quantity words behave like indefinite pronouns in <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong>. They name a vague amount, then <em>da + infinito<\/em> tells us what that amount is for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Igino ha sempre <strong>molto da raccontare<\/strong> sui vecchi pescatori.<br><em>Igino always has a lot to tell about the old fishermen.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Stamattina abbiamo <strong>poco da fare<\/strong>: solo controllare le reti.<br><em>This morning we have little to do: just check the nets.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>C&#8217;\u00e8 <strong>tanto da pulire<\/strong> nel casone dopo la mareggiata.<br><em>There&#8217;s so much to clean in the fishing hut after the storm.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Abbiamo <strong>abbastanza da bere<\/strong> per tutta la giornata.<br><em>We have enough to drink for the whole day.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An important detail about <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong>: in this pattern the quantity word stands on its own as a noun-like element. You cannot say <em>&#8220;molte cose da fare&#8221;<\/em> twice; either <em>molte cose da fare<\/em> (with the noun) or <em>molto da fare<\/em> (with the quantity word alone). Both are correct, the second is shorter and more idiomatic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"avere\">Avere da + infinitive: the colloquial &#8220;have to&#8221;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among the <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong> family, this is the only pattern with an explicit grammatical subject. Spoken Italian uses <em>avere da + infinito<\/em> as a colloquial twin of <em>dovere<\/em>. It is informal, slightly regional (more common in the centre and north), and very natural when you list duties without sounding heavy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Stamattina <strong>ho da finire<\/strong> la marinata, poi sono libera.<br><em>This morning I have to finish the marinade, then I&#8217;m free.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Igino, <strong>hai da fare<\/strong> o possiamo andare al ponte?<br><em>Igino, are you busy or can we go to the bridge?<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Selvaggia <strong>aveva da consegnare<\/strong> due ordini prima di mezzogiorno.<br><em>Selvaggia had two orders to deliver before noon.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When picking between <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong> and <em>dovere<\/em> in writing or formal contexts, <em>dovere<\/em> is safer: <em>devo finire la marinata<\/em>. In speech, <em>ho da finire<\/em> sounds friendlier and lighter. Italians often slip between these two ways of building <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong> in the same conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"esserci\">C&#8217;\u00e8 da, ci sarebbe da: things to be done<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the impersonal version of the structure. Of all <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong>, <em>c&#8217;\u00e8 da + infinito<\/em> means &#8220;there is X to be done&#8221; without naming who has to do it. It is short, useful, and very common in everyday Italian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>C&#8217;\u00e8 da pulire<\/strong> la barca prima di salpare.<br><em>The boat needs cleaning before we set off.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><strong>Ci sarebbe da<\/strong> ridipingere la staccionata, ma facciamo in primavera.<br><em>The fence needs repainting, but let&#8217;s do it in spring.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><strong>C&#8217;\u00e8 da dire<\/strong> che le anguille di quest&#8217;anno sono pi\u00f9 piccole.<br><em>It has to be said that this year&#8217;s eels are smaller.<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Qui <strong>c&#8217;\u00e8 da riflettere<\/strong> bene prima di firmare.<br><em>You really have to think hard here before signing.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Within <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong>, the conditional <em>ci sarebbe da<\/em> softens the obligation into a suggestion (&#8220;we ought to, we could&#8221;). The phrase <em>c&#8217;\u00e8 da dire che\u2026<\/em> is a beautiful opener for adding a qualification or a piece of information that the listener should weigh in.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-mini-2\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83e\udde0 <strong>Quick task.<\/strong> Complete each sentence with one of the impersonal Italian da infinitive relatives: <em>c&#8217;\u00e8 da<\/em> or <em>ci sarebbe da<\/em> + the verb.<\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>____________ (sbrigarsi), il treno parte tra cinque minuti!<\/li>\n<li>____________ (ammettere) che hai ragione tu.<\/li>\n<li>____________ (riparare) il rubinetto, ma non oggi.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n<details><summary>\ud83d\udc49 Show answers<\/summary>\n<p>1. <strong>C&#8217;\u00e8 da sbrigarsi<\/strong>, il treno parte tra cinque minuti!<br>2. <strong>C&#8217;\u00e8 da ammettere<\/strong> che hai ragione tu.<br>3. <strong>Ci sarebbe da riparare<\/strong> il rubinetto, ma non oggi.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"che\">When to prefer a relative clause with &#8220;che&#8221;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not every English &#8220;to + verb&#8221; becomes one of the <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong>.

When the noun is the <strong>subject<\/strong> of the action, or when you need a specific tense and a clear subject, a full relative with <em>che<\/em> is the natural choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u2705 Ho un libro <strong>da leggere<\/strong> (object): implicit &#8220;I should read it&#8221;.<br>\u2705 Ho un libro <strong>che finisce<\/strong> male: subject is &#8220;il libro&#8221;, che + verb is mandatory.<\/li>\n<li>\u2705 Una casa <strong>da affittare<\/strong> (passive purpose, to be rented).<br>\u2705 Una casa <strong>che si affitta<\/strong> facilmente (active description with tense).<\/li>\n<li>\u2705 Una persona <strong>da ammirare<\/strong> (deserving admiration).<br>\u2705 La persona <strong>che ho conosciuto<\/strong> ieri: past, specific subject, requires <em>che<\/em>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A reliable test for spotting <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong> in the wild: try the English paraphrase &#8220;that <em>can, should, or must<\/em> be X-ed&#8221;. If it fits, use <em>da + infinitive<\/em>. If you need &#8220;who or which did, does, will do&#8221;, use <em>che + verb<\/em>.

They look unusual at first because the <em>da + infinito<\/em> chunk works almost like a single word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><em>Dare <strong>da mangiare<\/strong> al gatto<\/em> = to feed the cat (literally &#8220;give the wherewithal to eat to the cat&#8221;).<br><em>To feed the cat.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Ti porto qualcosa <strong>da bere<\/strong>?<\/em> Here <em>da bere<\/em> almost acts like a noun: &#8220;something drinkable&#8221;.<br><em>Shall I bring you something to drink?<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Ho un sacco di <strong>daffare<\/strong> oggi<\/em>: written as one word, means &#8220;tasks, busy work&#8221;.<br><em>I have a load of stuff on today.<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Darsi <strong>da fare<\/strong><\/em> (two words here) = to get busy, to roll up one&#8217;s sleeves.<br><em>To get to work.<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Notice the dual spelling that <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong> have inherited: <em>daffare<\/em> as a noun (one word, like in &#8220;un sacco di daffare&#8221;), <em>da fare<\/em> as a verb phrase (two words, like in &#8220;ho molto da fare&#8221;).

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Five questions learners ask most often about <strong>Italian da infinitive relatives<\/strong>. Sources include real native-speaker discussions on language forums and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.treccani.it\/vocabolario\/da\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Treccani vocabolario entry on the Italian preposition da<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list \">\n<div id=\"faq-1\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">When do I use da + infinito instead of che + verb?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Use da + infinito when the noun is the implied object of the action and the meaning is that someone should, can, or must do it. Use che + verb when the noun is the subject of the action or when you need a specific tense. Compare: un libro da leggere (a book that should be read, da + inf) vs un libro che finisce male (a book that ends badly, che + verb because the book is the subject).<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-2\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Is da + infinito always passive in meaning?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Almost always, yes. Un libro da leggere means a book to be read. The construction packs a passive idea into an active-looking infinitive, which is why you cannot add essere: Cerco un libro da essere letto is wrong. The exception is the colloquial avere da + infinito where the subject of avere is also the doer: ho da finire (I have to finish).<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-3\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Can I say ho da fare instead of devo fare?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Yes, in informal spoken Italian. Ho da fare and devo fare are close in meaning, but ho da fare sounds lighter and more conversational, often regional (more common in central and northern Italy). In writing or formal contexts, prefer dovere. Both are correct and a native will not blink at either in speech.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-4\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">What is the difference between qualcosa da mangiare and qualcosa per mangiare?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Qualcosa da mangiare means something to eat, where the food is what gets eaten (implied object). Qualcosa per mangiare would suggest something used in order to eat, like cutlery or a plate. So at the bar you ask Hai qualcosa da mangiare, not per mangiare. The same logic applies to da bere vs per bere.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-5\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Why is it niente da fare and not niente di fare?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>After indefinite pronouns like niente, qualcosa, molto, poco, the preposition for purpose or necessity is da, not di. Di appears after these pronouns when an adjective follows: niente di bello, qualcosa di buono. With a verb, always da: niente da fare, qualcosa da bere, molto da dire.<\/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<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dante-learning.com\/eng\/italian-cui-all-functions\/\">Italian cui: all functions (di cui, a cui, per cui)<\/a>: the relative pronoun family that <em>da + infinito<\/em> often replaces.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dante-learning.com\/eng\/italian-per-vs-da-infinitive\/\">Italian per vs da + infinitive: purpose and use<\/a>: the trickiest neighbour of this construction.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/dante-learning.com\/eng\/italian-perception-verbs-infinitive\/\">Italian perception verbs + infinitive<\/a>: another bare-infinitive pattern that often confuses learners.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.treccani.it\/vocabolario\/da\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Treccani: voce sulla preposizione da<\/a>: native institutional source on Italian prepositions, including <em>da<\/em>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ud83d\udd0d In short.
