parlare = to speak
cantare = to sing
mangiare = to eat
studiare = to study
giocare = to play
pensare = to think
comprare = to buy
imparare = to learn
amare = to love
Then to conjugate the infinitive, you will drop the 'are' and add the following endings:
io = add 'o'
tu = add 'i'
Lei/lui/lei = add 'a'
noi = add 'iamo'
voi = add 'ate'
loro = add 'ano'
So, for example, here is how to conjugate the verb 'cantare.'
cantare = to sing
io canto = I sing
tu canti = you sing
Lei/lui/lei canta = you/he/she sings
noi cantiamo = we sing
voi cantate = you sing
loro cantano = they sing
