Riferirai

Riferirai is the second person singular future indicative form of the Italian verb riferire, meaning to report, relate, or relay information. It is used to indicate that you will convey information or recount events to someone else in the future.

Etymology

The verb riferire derives from the Latin referre, with the prefix re- meaning back or again, and ferre meaning to bear or carry. In Italian, riferire developed the sense of bringing information back to someone, i.e., reporting facts or details.

Conjugation

Riferire is a regular -ire verb in the sense of its future tense endings. The future indicative forms are:

Usage

Riferire is transitive and typically takes a direct object indicating the information or facts being reported, often followed by the recipient in a or to- phrase (riferire qualcosa al capo). It can also be used with a subordinate clause introduced by che to report that something occurred (riferire che...). The form riferirai is appropriate when addressing the second person singular in contexts such as plans, instructions, or anticipated communication.
