解説 portare in your Level:
At the A1 level, 'portare' is primarily taught as 'to carry' or 'to bring'. Students learn the present tense conjugation (io porto, tu porti, etc.) and use it for simple daily tasks. For example, 'Porto lo zaino' (I carry the backpack) or 'Porto una pizza' (I bring a pizza). The focus is on physical objects and the basic 'avere' auxiliary in the past tense. Learners at this stage should be able to use 'portare' to describe what they are bringing to a party or what they carry to school. It is one of the first regular -are verbs introduced because of its high frequency in survival Italian.
At the A2 level, the meaning expands to include 'escorting' or 'taking' people to places. Phrases like 'Porto mio figlio a scuola' (I take my son to school) become common. Students also start using 'portare' for wearing clothes and accessories, such as 'Porto gli occhiali' (I wear glasses). The use of indirect object pronouns with 'portare' is introduced here, allowing students to say things like 'Mi porti un bicchiere d'acqua?' (Will you bring me a glass of water?). The distinction between 'portare' (bringing to) and 'prendere' (taking/picking up) is a key learning goal at this stage.

例文

portare 30秒で

  • Portare is a fundamental Italian verb meaning to carry, bring, or take. It is a regular -are verb used in countless everyday situations.
  • Use it for physical objects (carrying bags), people (taking kids to school), and clothing (wearing a size or glasses habitually).
  • In the past tense, it uses 'avere'. In the imperative, it's common for requests like 'portami il menu' (bring me the menu).
  • It also has figurative meanings like 'portare fortuna' (to bring luck) or 'portare a termine' (to finish/complete a task).

The Italian verb portare is a powerhouse of the first conjugation, fundamentally meaning 'to carry' or 'to bring.' However, its utility in daily Italian life extends far beyond simple physical transportation. It is one of those 'Swiss Army knife' verbs that adapts its meaning based on the object it governs and the context of the situation. At its core, it describes the movement of something or someone from one point to another, but it also covers wearing clothes, leading to results, and even mathematical operations.

Physical Transport
The most literal use involves moving an object. Whether you are carrying groceries, bringing a gift to a friend, or moving furniture, 'portare' is your go-to verb. It implies that the subject is the agent of the movement.

Puoi portare queste valigie in camera, per favore?

Escorting People
Unlike English, which often distinguishes between 'taking' someone somewhere and 'bringing' them, Italian frequently uses 'portare' for both. If you are driving a friend to the airport, you 'porti' them there.
Wearing Clothes and Accessories
In Italian, you don't just 'wear' (indossare) clothes; you often 'carry' them. 'Portare' is the standard verb for habitual wearing of glasses, hats, or specific sizes. It suggests a more permanent or characteristic state than 'indossare'.

Mia nonna porta sempre un cappello elegante la domenica.

Furthermore, 'portare' is used in abstract contexts. It can mean 'to lead to' or 'to result in.' For instance, a specific path might lead to a village, or a certain behavior might lead to success. In mathematics, when you add numbers and have a remainder to move to the next column, you 'porti' that number. It is also used for 'bringing' news or 'carrying' a name. The versatility of this verb makes it one of the top 50 most important words for any beginner to master, as it surfaces in almost every conversation from the restaurant table to the business office.

Questa strada porta direttamente al centro della città.

Non dimenticare di portare il vino per la cena di stasera.

L'allenamento costante porta a grandi risultati nello sport.

Using portare correctly requires understanding its conjugation as a regular '-are' verb and its relationship with direct and indirect objects. Because it is a transitive verb, it usually takes a direct object (what you are carrying) and often an indirect object (to whom you are bringing it). The syntax typically follows the pattern: Subject + Portare + Direct Object + a + Indirect Object.

Present Tense Conjugation
Io porto, tu porti, lui/lei porta, noi portiamo, voi portate, loro portano. These forms are used for current actions or habitual behaviors.

Noi portiamo la pizza a casa di Marco ogni venerdì.

Past Tense (Passato Prossimo)
'Portare' uses the auxiliary verb 'avere'. For example: 'Ho portato' (I brought). Remember that the past participle 'portato' remains unchanged unless there is a preceding direct object pronoun.
Using with Pronouns
When combined with indirect object pronouns (mi, ti, gli, le, ci, vi), 'portare' indicates the recipient of the action. 'Mi porti un caffè?' means 'Will you bring me a coffee?'

Ti porto il libro domani mattina.

In the imperative mood, 'portare' is frequently used for requests and orders. 'Portami' (Bring me), 'Portalo' (Bring it), 'Portateci' (Bring us). This is common in service settings like restaurants or when asking for help at home. When used reflexively, 'portarsi' can mean to move oneself or to carry something with oneself, though this is less common than the transitive form. For example, 'Mi porto sempre un ombrello' (I always carry an umbrella with me).

Per favore, portami il menu quando hai un momento.

Ieri ho portato i bambini al parco giochi.

Dovresti portare la giacca perché fa freddo fuori.

The beauty of portare is its ubiquity. You will hear it from the moment you step into an Italian café until the late-night dinner party ends. It is deeply embedded in the service industry, family dynamics, and professional environments. Understanding these specific contexts will help you sound more like a native speaker and less like a textbook.

At the Restaurant
Waiters use it constantly. 'Cosa vi porto da bere?' (What shall I bring you to drink?) is the standard opening. When you are ready to leave, you might say: 'Ci può portare il conto?' (Can you bring us the bill?).

Cameriere, ci porti un'altra bottiglia d'acqua, per favore.

In Fashion and Shopping
In a clothing store, the clerk might ask: 'Che taglia porta?' (What size do you wear?). Notice how 'portare' is used instead of 'indossare' here. It refers to the size you habitually carry on your body.
Everyday Chores
'Portare fuori il cane' (to take the dog out) or 'portare fuori la spazzatura' (to take out the trash) are standard domestic phrases. Here, 'portare' implies the physical act of moving something out of the house.

È il tuo turno di portare fuori la spazzatura stasera.

In news and media, you will hear 'portare' in discussions about politics or social changes. 'Le riforme porteranno benefici' (The reforms will bring benefits). It is also used in sports: 'Il capitano porta la squadra alla vittoria' (The captain leads the team to victory). Even in the digital world, you 'porti' (import) files or data. It is a verb of progress and movement, always indicating a transition from state A to state B. By paying attention to these contexts, you'll see that 'portare' is less about the 'carrying' and more about the 'result of the movement'.

Il telegiornale porta brutte notizie oggi.

Che taglia di scarpe porti? Ho trovato dei saldi incredibili.

Even though portare is a beginner verb, its versatility creates pitfalls for English speakers. The most common errors stem from the 'bring vs. take' distinction in English, which doesn't perfectly map to Italian, and the confusion between 'portare' and related verbs like 'prendere' or 'condurre'.

Portare vs. Prendere
English speakers often use 'prendere' (to take) when they should use 'portare'. If you are moving an object to a destination, use 'portare'. 'Prendere' is for the act of picking something up or grabbing it. Incorrect: 'Prendo i bambini a scuola' (I catch the kids at school). Correct: 'Porto i bambini a scuola' (I take/bring the kids to school).

Errore: Devo prendere questo libro in biblioteca (if you mean 'return it'). Corretto: Devo portare questo libro in biblioteca.

Portare vs. Indossare
While both mean 'to wear', 'indossare' focuses on the act of putting clothes on or the specific aesthetic of an outfit. 'Portare' is for the size, the habit, or the general state of having something on. Don't say 'Porto la maglietta' if you are describing the action of putting it on right now; use 'Mettere' or 'Indossare'.
Portare vs. Condurre
In formal contexts, 'condurre' means 'to lead' or 'to drive'. While 'portare' can mean lead (like a road), 'condurre' is more specific to guiding or managing. Using 'portare' for 'to drive a car' is a mistake; use 'guidare'.

Non diciamo 'porto la macchina' per dire 'I drive'. Diciamo 'Guido la macchina'.

Another nuance is the direction. 'Portare' is generally 'away from the speaker' or 'towards a third point'. If you are asking someone to bring something to you, 'portare' works perfectly. However, if you are moving with the object toward the person you are talking to, 'venire con' or 'portare' are used depending on the focus. A common mistake is using 'portare' for 'to wear' when referring to a temporary state like 'I am wearing a blue shirt today' (use 'ho' or 'indosso' for better precision, though 'porto' is acceptable but less common for temporary outfits).

Attenzione: 'Portare a termine' is an idiom meaning 'to complete', not 'to carry to the end' of a physical line.

While portare is a versatile workhorse, Italian offers several more specific alternatives that can make your speech more precise and sophisticated. Choosing the right synonym depends entirely on whether you are emphasizing the weight, the destination, the act of wearing, or the metaphorical result.

Recare
This is a more formal and literary version of 'portare'. It is often used in the context of 'causing' or 'bringing' news/gifts. You might see it in newspapers: 'Il maltempo ha recato danni' (The bad weather caused/brought damage).

Il corriere ha recato il pacco al destinatario.

Trasportare
Use this when the emphasis is on the vehicle or the logistical process of moving large quantities. It is the root of the English 'transport'.
Indossare vs. Mettere
If you want to focus on the fashion aspect or the act of putting something on, 'indossare' (to wear) or 'mettersi' (to put on oneself) are better. 'Portare' is more about the habit or size.

Oggi indosso un vestito nuovo, ma di solito porto i jeans.

Other verbs include 'condurre' (to lead/guide), 'trascinare' (to drag—when the object is heavy), and 'sorreggere' (to support the weight of something). In a mathematical context, 'portare' is specific, but in a figurative sense of 'bringing about' a change, you might use 'determinare' or 'causare'. For students, the key is to start with 'portare' as your foundation and gradually replace it with these specific terms as your vocabulary grows. Remember: 'portare' is never wrong for physical carrying, but 'recare' makes you sound like a poet, and 'trasportare' makes you sound like a professional.

È difficile trascinare questo baule pesante per le scale.

Il sentiero conduce alla cima della montagna.
