Unifico

Unifico is a term in the Italian language that primarily functions as the first-person singular present indicative form of the transitive verb unificare, meaning "I unify" or "I make into one." It denotes the act of bringing separate parts into a single whole.

Etymology and usage: The verb unificare derives from Latin unificare, from unus "one" and facere "to make." The form unifico is used for present, first-person statements and is common in technical and administrative contexts describing the merging or standardizing of data, laws, procedures, or organizations. It is not a standard noun; the related noun is unificazione or unificazione; the participle is unificato.

Conjugation: io unifico; tu unifichi; lui/lei unifica; noi unifichiamo; voi unificate; loro unificano. Example: Io unifico due liste separate.

Related terms and cross-linguistic notes: In other Romance languages, cognates exist; Spanish uses unifico as first-person present of unificar, and the notion is common across languages with the root unific-. In Italian, other related forms include unificare (to unify), unificato (unified) and unificazione (unification), which expand the same semantic field.
