Usage notes
Appended to present active infinitive verb forms to derive accusative forms when the object is third singular masculine person. Also appended to second singular person imperative forms. The final -e of the original infinitive is removed :
it -are → it -arlo
it -ere → it -erlo
it -ire → it -irlo
Where the verb ends in -rre, the final re is removed, leaving behind just an -r:
it introdurre to introduce → it introdurre introdurlo to introduce him
In any case, after the suffixation, there is only a single r and no vowels immediately before -lo.
In older Italian, by assimilation, the m preceding the ⟨l⟩ of the enclitic may become dental (m → n) in the apocopic first person plural: lasciam(o)lo → lascianlo. Compare it sommi contraction.
