Eseguirla

Eseguirla is an Italian verbal construct formed by the verb eseguire and the direct object pronoun la, meaning “to carry it out” or “to execute it.” The la refers to a feminine singular object (for example la procedura, la decisione). It is not a separate lexical item but a common form used with another verb in periphrastic constructions.

Etymology and meaning: eseguire derives from Latin exsequī, meaning to follow through, perform, or accomplish. In modern Italian, eseguire covers actions that implement a task, follow instructions, or complete a prescribed procedure. When combined with a feminine singular object pronoun, it yields eseguirla to express “to execute it (fem.)” in a compact form.

Usage and grammar: The pronoun can attach to the infinitive when there is another conjugated verb in the sentence, as in de vo eseguirla (I must carry it out). It can also appear before the conjugated verb, as in La devo eseguire, or be placed after with a finite form, depending on style. The pronoun agrees in gender and number with the object: la for feminine singular, lo for masculine singular, le for feminine plural, e loro for masculine plural in some constructions. For masculine singular objects, eseguirlo is used; for feminine plural objects, eseguirle would be used.

Examples: Devo eseguirla subito. Va eseguita la procedura. La devo eseguire domani. Eseguirò la procedura, la eseguirò domani. These illustrate the range from imperative-like obligation to future actions.
