201. The conjunctive pronouns "mi," " ti," "gli," &c., are placed
after the second person singular, and the first and second

joined to them . Ex.
Parlami ora caro fratello .
Speak to me now, dear brother.
Mandateci 5 un mazzo di fiori .

202. 1 When the Infinitive (see rule 126) and the Gerund are
preceded by a negative, the pronouns are sometimes put before
the verb. Ex.
Non ti scordar di me.
Do not forget me.
Non gli piacendo la stanza.
As he did not like the room.
203. 2 Notice that this rule of leaving out " avendo " or " essendo "
in the Past Gerund holds good whether there is a pronoun or not.
Ex.
Comprato (avendo comprato) il cavallo, ando via.
Having bought the horse , he went away.
204. 3 Notice that in the compound tenses of reflective verbs (see
page 59). " essere " is used.
205. 4 When the Imperative is used negatively, the Conjunctive
Pronouns precede the verbs, according to rule 193. Ex.
Non mi parlare ora, caro fratello .
Do not speak to me now, dear brother.
206. 5 Here the student is reminded that, instead of "voi," you,
the Italians very often use " Ella ," your Lordship or Ladyship (see
rule 120) ; in which case the pronouns precede the verbs,
according to rule 193. Ex.
Ci mandi un mazzo di fiori .
Send us a bunch of flowers.
