For composita (concatenated words), we show how the word is made up from individual words:
- Composited Word: The word "leggerlo" is a composited word.
- First Word Part: "legger" is the first part of the composited word. It really is the verb "leggere", meaning "to read".
- Second Word Part: "lo" is the first part of the composited word. It means "it" or "him".
As you can see, "leggerlo" is made up from the words "leggere" "lo", so it means "to read it".
