analizzava

Analizzava is the imperfect indicative form of the Italian verb analizzare, meaning to analyze. It is the third-person singular form (lui/lei) and, when used with the formal address Lei, can express “you were analyzing” in polite speech.

As a regular -are verb, analizzare follows the standard imperfect endings: io analizzavo, tu analizzavi, lui/lei analizzava, noi analizzavamo, voi analizzavate, loro analizzavano.

Examples: Analizzava i dati per individuare tendenze. Durante la riunione, analizzava le statistiche con attenzione. In narrative text, it often describes ongoing or habitual analysis in the past.

Etymology and related forms: the verb analizzare derives from analisi (analysis) and shares a family with related forms in Italian such as analisi, analizzando (analyzing), analizzato (analyzed), and analizzatore (analyst). The stem analizz- is combined with standard -are verb endings to form various tenses.

Usage notes: the imperfect tense indicates an action in progress or habitual in the past, serving as a background or descriptive action in sentences. Analizzava is therefore common in scientific, academic, journalistic, and literary contexts to convey ongoing examination or interpretation of data, texts, or phenomena.
