Usage notes
- Use 'venire' for movement toward the speaker; 'andare' for movement away. 'Vengo da te' (I'm coming to you), 'vado da te' (I'm going to you).
- Auxiliary is 'essere' in compound tenses: 'Sono venuto' (I came). Past participle agrees with subject: 'Lei è venuta' (She came).
- In informal speech, 'vengo' often contracts to 'veng' before vowels: 'Veng’io!' (I’m coming!).
- present: vengo, vieni, viene, veniamo, venite, vengono
- past participle venuto
