dividevamo

Dividevamo is the first-person plural imperfect indicative form of the Italian verb dividere, meaning “we used to divide” or “we were dividing.” It is a conjugated form, not a separate lexical item with its own meaning.

In the -ere verb class, the imperfect is formed by taking the stem divide- and adding the endings -vo, -vi, -va, -vamo, -vate, -vano. Therefore the full imperfect conjugation is: io dividevo, tu dividevi, lui divideva, noi dividevamo, voi dividevate, loro dividevano.

The form dividevamo is used to describe ongoing or habitual actions in the past, or to provide background in narratives. Examples: “Quando eravamo giovani, dividevamo i compiti tra noi” and “Dividevamo spesso le spese del viaggio.” The nuance corresponds to the English imperfect “we were dividing” or “we used to divide.”

Dividevamo is not a standalone noun or a widely recognized proper noun. It is a standard conjugated form from dividere and may appear in any text that employs the imperfect tense. In dictionaries, it is listed as a form of dividere rather than as an independent lemma. See also dividere and Italian grammar on the imperfect indicative.
