Talk:si

Italian definition

According to the entry for "se", the Italian word "si" is a reflexive pronoun. Also, babelfish translates "yes" as "sì", with an accent over the i. Based on this, I think the "yes" definition should be moved to sì, and the definition here should be changed to the reflexive. But I'd like confirmation from someone who's fluent in the language (I'm not). -- Ortonmc 20:27, 14 Jan 2004 (UTC)

You are absolutely right. I'm not fluent in Italian either, but other sources on the internet confirm what you discovered. Polyglot 21:26, 14 Jan 2004 (UTC)

This is correct; "si" with an accent is "yes", and is a pronoun without. -- Paul G 13:57, 27 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Query re grammar

I've split the Italian pronoun into 5 separate senses because they are all slightly different and have different translations into English. I'm not sure I have used appropriate grammatical terms - could someone with a sound grounding in English grammar check these, please. -- Paul G 13:57, 27 Jan 2004 (UTC)

I've researched this and amended the page accordingly. -- Paul G 14:13, 28 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Query re infinitive + si in Italian

Does "ridurre" + "si" become "ridurrsi" or "ridursi" in Italian? I think it might well be the latter, but a Google search shows both to be common. Is one or other correct, or are both? Could a native Italian speaker check this, please? -- Paul G 13:57, 27 Jan 2004 (UTC)

I've researched this and amended the page accordingly. -- Paul G 14:13, 28 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Czech audio

It was obviously recorded by someone with a nonstandard accent. (Brno/southern Moravia) I think it should be recorded by someone with more neutral pronunciation.--90.179.235.249 23:55, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
