| May 18, 2023 at 20:07 | comment | added | Geremia | @DenisNardin Is "farsi amato" improper Italian? | |
| May 18, 2023 at 19:07 | comment | added | Denis Nardin♦ | That is also Farlo amare. At the infinitive the two forms are identical. | |
| May 18, 2023 at 18:03 | comment | added | Geremia | @DenisNardin Then how does one say: "To make him love."? | |
| May 18, 2023 at 9:46 | comment | added | Denis Nardin♦ | It's enough to look at any table of Italian pronouns (e.g. here), but for example To make him loved is Farlo amare. si is a reflexive pronoun and it is not used in the active voice. | |
| May 17, 2023 at 23:34 | comment | added | Geremia | @DenisNardin I'm referring to that "clitic object". How would you say: "To make me loved", "To make he/she/it loved", "To make us loved", "To make y'all loved", "To make them loved"? "Farmi amare", "Farsi amare", "Farci amare", "Farvi amare", "Farli amare", respectively? | |
| May 17, 2023 at 6:54 | comment | added | Denis Nardin♦ | No, the infinitive tense does not have a person. It's reflexive voice vs active voice with a clitic object. | |
| May 17, 2023 at 0:08 | comment | added | Geremia | @DenisNardin Isn't it second person vs. third person? | |
| May 16, 2023 at 6:16 | comment | added | Denis Nardin♦ | Farti is not the same as farsi. | |
| May 16, 2023 at 1:56 | comment | added | Geremia | @DenisNardin From the motto of the religious congregation Suore Consolatrici del Sacro Cuore di Gesù: "Cuor di Gesù, amarTi e farTi amare!" ("Heart of Jesus, to love Thee and make Thee loved!") | |
| May 15, 2023 at 7:49 | comment | added | Denis Nardin♦ | Where did you find this? Farsi amare means To make (someone) love you, farsi amato is not a common expression, but I'd interpreted it as To become loved with a strong archaising flavor | |
