Ignora

Ignora is a conjugated form of the verb ignorare in Italian and of the verb ignorar in Spanish, both meaning to ignore or to be unaware of something. As a word, ignora does not represent a separate lexeme beyond its grammatical uses; its meaning depends on the sentence and language.

Etymology and related forms: The verb ignorare originates in Latin, from related forms meaning to be ignorant or not to know. In Italian and Spanish, ignorare/ignorar share a common semantic core related to disregarding information or attention. Related nouns such as ignorance or ignorance-related terms are found in both languages as cognates.

Grammatical use in Italian: In Italian, ignora is the third-person singular present indicative form of ignorare (eg. lui/lei ignora). It is also the second-person singular informal imperative form (tu) used to tell someone to ignore something (eg. Ignora i segnali). The same spelling marks a key point of confusion for learners, since it serves two distinct grammatical functions depending on mood and subject.

Grammatical use in Spanish: In Spanish, ignora is the third-person singular present indicative form of ignorar (él/ella ignora) and also the second-person singular informal imperative form (tú) meaning “ignore.” Context and punctuation determine whether it is a statement about someone ignoring something or a direct command to do so.

See also: Ignorar, Ignorancia, Ignorante. The term is primarily a grammatical form rather than a standalone lexical entry, and its interpretation relies on the surrounding language and syntactic role.
