Don't forget the accent on the 'i' in 'lavai' to ensure the correct pronunciation."}, {"role": "user", "content": "That's really helpful, thank you. Can I ask, is there a difference in translation when referring to masculine and feminine objects?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Yes, in Italian, the pronoun 'lo' is used for masculine singular objects, while 'la' is used for feminine singular objects. For example, if you were to say 'I washed it' referring to a feminine object, you would say 'La lavai'."}, {"role": "user", "content": "That clears things up. Is there a difference in verb conjugation for the past tense as well?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Yes, the verb conjugation for 'lavare' (to wash) changes depending on the subject and tense. In this case, 'lavai' is the first person singular conjugation of 'lavare' in the past tense. If you want to say 'I washed' in general, without referring to a specific object, you would simply say 'Ho lavato'."}, {"role": "user", "content": "That's really helpful, thank you.
