Notas de uso
- Use 'dovere' for obligations or necessity; 'bisognare' is impersonal (e.g., 'bisogna studiare').
- Auxiliary is 'avere' in compound tenses, but 'essere' if followed by an infinitive verb of motion (e.g., 'sono dovuto uscire').
- Contractions: 'devo' → 'debbo' (rare, formal), 'devi' → 'debbi' (poetic). Stick to standard forms.
- present: devo, devi, deve, dobbiamo, dovete, devono
