Subject pronouns are the words you use to refer to the person or thing performing an action: I, you, he, she, we, they. Italian has more subject pronouns than English because it distinguishes between formal and informal "you", and between masculine and feminine "they".
| Italian | English | Person |
|---|---|---|
| io | I | 1st person singular |
| tu | you (informal) | 2nd person singular |
| lui | he | 3rd person singular |
| lei | she | 3rd person singular |
| Lei | you (formal) | 3rd person singular (formal) |
| noi | we | 1st person plural |
| voi | you all / you (plural) | 2nd person plural |
| loro | they | 3rd person plural |
Io is the Italian word for "I". Unlike English, it is not capitalised unless it begins a sentence.
| Italian | English |
|---|---|
| Io sono Marco. | I am Marco. |
| Non sono io. | It is not me. |
