condivisi

Condivisi is the masculine plural form of the past participle of the Italian verb condividere, which means to share. It is also used as an adjective to describe things that are held in common or used jointly. The form agrees in gender and number with the noun it modifies, so masculine plural nouns take shared forms such as condivisi.

In grammar, condivisi appears in two main ways. First, as a participle in compound tenses with the auxiliary avere, where it may agree with a preceding direct object: for example, i file che ho condiviso becomes i file che ho condivisi. Second, as an adjective or in passive constructions with essere, where the participle agrees with the subject or noun it accompanies: le risorse sono state condivise, i documenti condivisi, or un sistema condiviso.

Common contexts include computing and collaboration, where phrases like file condivisi (shared files), cartelle condivise (shared folders), and documenti condivisi are frequent. In everyday Italian, the related verb form condividere is widely used in social and digital contexts to indicate that information or media has been made accessible to others.

Condivisi also appears in more formal or legal language to describe jointly owned or used items when paired with appropriate nouns, such as beni condivisi (shared goods) or proprietà condivisa (shared property). The term derives from con- plus dividere, reflecting the idea of dividing resources together.
