interrogherai

Interrogherai is the second-person singular form of the Italian verb interrogare in the simple future tense. It corresponds to the pronoun you (tu) and means you will question or interrogate. The form is used in ordinary narrative and dialogue to refer to a future action performed by a familiar interlocutor.

In Italian, interrogare is a regular -are verb. The future tense is formed by taking the stem interrogher- (the infinitive without the final -are) and adding the standard future endings: -ò, -ai, -à, -emo, -ete, -anno. Therefore, interrogherai literally means “you will interrogate.” The spelling with gh preserves the hard g sound before e, avoiding a soft g that would occur with just “g” in front of e.

Usage notes include that the subject is typically understood from context or explicit pronouns. The form is common in both written and spoken Italian when addressing a single informal you. In formal contexts, the second-person formal Lei uses a different conjugation (e.g., interrogherà for “you will interrogate”), while the plural form voi interrogherete is used for “you all will interrogate.”

Example: Domani interrogherai il testimone durante l’interrogatorio. This sentence shows a typical scenario in which someone is scheduled to question a witness.

Etymology and relatives: interrogherai derives from interrogare, itself from the Latin interrogo, interrogare. It is part of the larger class of -are verbs in Italian and shares the same future- tense pattern with other verbs of this conjugation.
