massacrano

Massacrano is the third-person plural present indicative form of the Italian verb massacrrare? The correct base is massacr-are: massacro, massacri, massacra, massacriamo, massacrate, massacrano. Therefore, massacrano translates to “they massacre” and is used with a plural subject to describe an act of killing many people or causing intense destruction.

The word carries a strong, violent connotation and is commonly found in historical accounts, journalism, and literary writing to convey severe harm. It can refer to actual massacres in conflict or violent episodes, as in sentences like “I soldati massacrano la popolazione civile,” meaning that the soldiers massacre the civilian population. Beyond literal violence, massacrano can also be used metaphorically to describe extreme damage or ruin inflicted on non-human things or on processes, for example in phrases about deliberately destroying or ruining data, plans, or reputations.

Related forms include the noun massacro (massacre), which denotes an instance of mass killing or a brutal act. The verb massacrrare shares a common semantic field with other verb forms of massacr- (such as massacro, massacri, massacra) and contrasts with milder verbs describing injury or harm. In Italian prose and reporting, massacrano is a direct, forceful option for describing acts of large-scale violence or pervasive destruction, aligning with formal or somber registers.
