Rifacciamo

Rifacciamo is the first-person plural present indicative form of the Italian verb rifare, meaning we redo or we do again. It is used to indicate the repetition or redoing of an action and can govern a direct object, as in we redo the task or we retake something.

Rifare derives from the prefix ri- (again) attached to fare (to do/make). Rifacciamo is a regular -are verb and follows the standard present-tense endings of this class: io rifaccio, tu rifai, lui/lei rifà, noi rifacciamo, voi rifacete, loro rifanno. The form rifacciamo is thus the normal, conjugated form used when the subject is “we.”

Usage of rifacciamo tends to appear in everyday language when planning or describing the repetition of an action. Examples include phrases like rifacciamo il lavoro (we redo the work), rifacciamo la foto (we retake the photo), or rifacciamo l’esercizio (we redo the exercise). It can express a practical decision to correct or redo something, rather than a simple description of a completed action. In context, the verb is transitive and commonly paired with a direct object.
