utilizzano

Utilizzano is the third-person plural present indicative form of the Italian verb utilizzare, meaning "they use" or "they employ." It is used with plural subjects such as loro, i ricercatori, le aziende, or any plural noun. The verb is transitive and typically takes a direct object, as in Le aziende utilizzano nuove tecnologie or Gli studenti utilizzano i dati raccolti.

Utilizzare belongs to the first conjugation (-are) and forms its present tense with a stem that includes the orthographic sequence -izz-: io utilizzo, tu utilizzi, lui/lei utilizza, noi utilizziamo, voi utilizzate, loro utilizzano. The spelling preserves the double z in the stem, a feature of many -izzare verbs. The term derives from Latin utilis meaning "useful" and was adopted into Italian with the productive suffix -izzare to form a verb meaning "to make use of."

In usage, utilizzare is often preferred in formal or technical contexts, while synonyms such as usare and impiegare may be chosen depending on nuance. Usare is more everyday or physical use, whereas impiegare can emphasize deployment or allocation of time or resources. The form utilizza, utilizza, and their related forms are common across prose, journalism, and academic writing when describing the act of employing tools, methods, or resources.
