uccideranno

Uccideranno is the third person plural form of the Italian verb uccidere in the future simple tense, meaning they will kill. It is a regular form for -ere verbs, built from the stem uccider- plus the future ending -anno, with the stress on the syllable corresponding to -ran-no.

Formation and pronunciation: the verb root is uccider-, and the ending is -anno, yielding uccideranno. The pronunciation in standard Italian is approximately [utˈt͡ʃi.deˈran.no], with the stress on the syllable containing -ran-.

Usage and meaning: as a grammatical form, uccideranno expresses a future action performed by a plural subject. It is used in narrative, dialogue, and reporting to state that a group will commit the act of killing. It may appear with explicit subjects or with an understood subject, and it can be used in both literal and figurative senses depending on context.

Context and appearances: the phrase is common in Italian literature, journalism, and dialogue where a future threat or action is described. In headlines or quoted material, it may be used without a clear subject. Because it denotes violence, its use typically signals a serious or dramatic situation.

Examples (translated):

- Secondo le fonti, i ribelli uccideranno se non si arrenderanno. (According to sources, the rebels will kill if they do not surrender.)

- Nel brano, si legge che uccideranno solo in casi estremi. (In the passage, it reads that they will kill only in extreme cases.)
