pioverà

Pioverà is the third-person singular form of the Italian verb piovere in the future tense, used primarily as an impersonal weather verb meaning "it will rain." In Italian, weather events are typically expressed without a concrete subject, so pioverà is commonly used to forecast rain: "Pioverà domani" or "Pioverà nel pomeriggio."

Etymology: The verb piovere derives from Latin pluere, meaning "to rain," through the historical development of Romance languages and Old Italian. The modern form reflects standard evolution of -ere verbs, with the future third-person singular ending -à.

Usage: As with other weather verbs, pioverà is almost always employed in the third person, with the subject being the impersonal "it." It appears in spoken Italian, written forecasts, journalism, and literature to indicate future precipitation. The word is closely related to related terms such as pioggia (rain) and piovoso (rainy).

Examples: "Secondo le previsioni, pioverà domani." "Pioverà nel pomeriggio e potrebbe proseguire fino alla sera." In everyday speech, the form is used to convey upcoming rain without assigning the action to a specific agent.
