portami

Portami is an Italian verb phrase meaning “bring me.” It is formed from the verb portare in the second-person singular informal imperative form porta, combined with the clitic pronoun mi meaning “to me.” The resulting form, portami, is used to command someone to bring something to the speaker.

In everyday use, portami appears as a direct, concise request. Examples include Portami un caffè, per favore (Bring me a coffee, please) or Portami subito quel libro (Bring me that book right away). When additional objects are involved, Italian allows pronoun attachment to the verb, giving forms such as Portamelo (bring it to me) or Non portarmi (do not bring me).

Grammatical notes: portami is part of the larger system of Italian clitic pronouns attached to imperatives. The pronoun mi marks the recipient of the action, while other pronouns may accompany it to specify the object being brought. The construction is common in informal speech and writing, including dialogue in literature and film.

Portami is not typically used as a proper noun or name of an entity. It does not denote a place, organization, or widely recognized brand in standard references. See also Italian grammar of clitic pronouns, the imperative mood, and the verb portare.
