Can you help me translate it into Italian so I can understand and use it in context?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "The translation of 'You were in a coma' into Italian is 'Era in coma.' This sentence is in the formal 'you' form, which is appropriate for most written and formal spoken contexts in Italian. The verb 'era' is the third person singular of the verb 'essere' in the imperfect tense, indicating a past state of being."}]
