Q

To be able to

A

Farcela- ce la fare (to be able to, can)(similar to riuscire a)

  1. Synonymous with riuscire + a. The difference is that farcela is more colloquial and idiomatic and attempts to convey a greater sense of emotion and purpose. Non farcela also means “to be unable to cope” or “to be unable to go on.”
  2. Ce la farai senz’altro.- “You can do it, no problem.
  3. Non farcela- can’t go on
  4. Credo di farcela- I believe I can do it
  5. Non ce la faccio a correre subito.- I can’t start running straight away.”
  6. Anna non ce la fa senza di te. “Anna can’t do it without you.”
  7. Ce la faccio a studiare con tutto il rumore. “I am managing to study with all the noise.”
    (Use “a” after farcela)
    a. In compound tenses, farcela takes avere, and the past participle is always in the feminine singular.
    b. Bravi ce l’avete fatta ad arrivare in orario.-“Well done! You managed to get here on time.”
  8. Present tense:
    a. (io) ce la faccio; (tu) ce la fai (lui/lei/Lei) ce la fa (noi) ce la facciamo (voi) ce la fate (loro) ce la fanno
  9. Passato prossimo: (io) ce l’ho fatta
    a. (tu) ce l’hai fatta (lui/lei/Lei) ce l’ha fatta (noi) ce l’abbiamo fatta (voi) ce l’avete fatta (loro) ce l’hanno fatta
