prenderanno

Prenderanno is the third-person plural form of prendere in the futuro semplice (simple future) in Italian. It translates to “they will take” or “they will grab,” depending on context.

Formation and grammar: The futuro semplice endings for -ere verbs are -rò, -rai, -rà, -remo, -rete, -ranno. The stem for prendere is prender-, so the form for loro is prenderanno. This form is regular for the verb prendere, and it is used with a plural subject to indicate a future action.

Usage: Prenderanno can be used in both literal and figurative senses. It commonly denotes physical taking or grabbing, but it also appears in expressions that mean to take or make something in a non-literal sense, such as decisions or notes. Examples: “Domani prenderanno una decisione.” (Tomorrow they will make a decision.) “Gli studenti prenderanno appunti durante la lezione.” (The students will take notes during the lesson.) “La squadra prenderà in considerazione tutte le opzioni.” (The team will take all options into consideration.)

Idiomatic uses: Prendere is the broader family of verbs with many idiomatic expressions, such as prendere una decisione, prendere nota, prendere in giro, or prendere tempo; in futuro: prenderanno una decisione, prenderanno nota, ecc.

Notes: Prenderanno is a standard, neutral form appropriate in formal and informal contexts when referring to a group in the future. Other persons and tenses of prendere are conjugated regularly in the same paradigm.
