sviluppate

Sviluppate is a form of the Italian verb sviluppare and has several distinct grammatical uses. It is the feminine plural past participle of sviluppare, used to describe nouns in a passive sense or as a modifier, for example idee sviluppate (developed ideas). It is also the second-person plural present indicative form: voi sviluppate, meaning “you all develop” or “you are developing.” In addition, sviluppate is the second-person plural imperative: Sviluppate!, used to give a command to a group to develop or produce something. The spelling is identical for these different functions; meaning is determined by syntactic context and the presence of auxiliary verbs in compound tenses.

The verb sviluppare itself means to develop, to elaborate, to unfold, or to bring something to a more advanced state. The word is common in technical, academic, and everyday Italian. Related forms include sviluppato (masculine singular past participle), sviluppo (development), and sviluppatore (developer). See also other tenses formed with the -are verbs.
