inizieremo

Inizieremo is the Italian verb iniziare in the futuro semplice (simple future) for the first-person plural, meaning “we will begin” or “we will start.” It is used to indicate a planned or upcoming action by a group.

Etymology and form: Iniziare means to begin or start and is related to the noun inizio (beginning). The verb traces its origins to Latin initiare from initium (beginning), passing into Italian in the medieval period. The future tense is formed on the stem inizier- with the standard endings: inizierò, inizierai, inizierà, inizieremo, inizierete, inizieranno. Thus, inizieremo specifically corresponds to the noi form.

Usage and nuance: Inizieremo is commonly used in formal, logistical, or narrative contexts to announce a planned start. It can appear in statements about projects, courses, events, or processes. In everyday speech, speakers may prefer synonyms such as cominceremo, which can carry a slightly more casual tone, while iniziare remains well accepted in both formal and written language. Example: Inizieremo il progetto la prossima settimana. Translation: We will begin the project next week.

Grammatical notes: The form is specific to the subject pronoun noi; other persons use the corresponding future forms (inizierò, inizierai, inizierà, inizierete, inizieranno). The verb can be negated: Non inizieremo senza i materiali. It is often paired with time expressions (domani, la prossima settimana) to indicate scheduling or planning.
