Alternative forms[edit]

  • iri (eye dialect, non-standard)
  • ghiri, gghiri (eye dialect, non-standard, only when geminated)
  • gniri (eye dialect, non-standard, palatalization just before n)

Etymology[edit]

The infinitive and forms beginning with j- derive from Latin īre, while the forms beginning with v- derive from corresponding forms of vādere.

In some not homogeneous areas in Sicily, inside or nearby Gallo-Italic enclaves, the forms made upon īre are made instead on annari, from Early Medieval Latin andāre, of disputed origin.

For the reflexive sense, compare Spanish irse and Italian andarsene.

Pronunciation[edit]

  • IPA(key): /ˈjiɾi/
    • IPA(key): [ˈ(j)ɪ.ɾɪ], (synactic gemination) [ˈɟːɪ.ɾɪ], (when preceded by /n/) [ˈɲɪ.ɾɪ]
  • Hyphenation: jì‧ri
