Regular verb, ci, gi lose their i, gerund afflosciandosi, past participle afflosciato, auxiliary essere.
Mi, ti, si
The pronoun comes before the verb, mi affloscio, and before the auxiliary: mi sono afflosciato. It attaches to commands, afflosciati, and to the infinitive and the gerund. A ban to tu has two orders: non afflosciarti / non ti afflosciare.
Lei, the polite you, takes the form of lui / lei: Lei parla.
After essere, the participle agrees with the subject: andato, andata, andati, andate.
