Italian conjugation explanation
Conjugation of -durre verbs
<p>When conjugating verbs ending in <span style="font-style: italic">-durre</span>, we need to <strong>treat them as if their ending was <span style="font-style: italic; white-space: nowrap; ">-ducere</span></strong> in most tenses (with regular -ere conjugation). This comes from the original Latin infinitive of these verbs (e.g. <span style="font-style: italic">produrre</span> in Italian, <span style="font-style: italic">prōdūcere</span> in Latin). Exceptions: the future and conditional tenses where the <span style="font-style: italic">-c-</span> does not appear; and some forms of the past historic tense where the <span style="font-style: italic">-c-</span> turns into <span style="font-style: italic; white-space: nowrap; ">-ss-</span>.</p>
<p>The most common <span style="font-style: italic">-durre</span> verbs are: <span style="font-style: italic">produrre, condurre, ridurre, introdurre, tradurre</span>, etc.</p>
<p>In the following conjugation tables, the affected verb forms of <span style="font-style: italic">produrre</span> are highlighted:</p>
