Abstract

In Italian language, the atonic pronouns ci and vi are mainly personal pronouns or reflexive personal pronouns of the first and second persons of the plural, acting as a direct object or as an indirect object. Moreover, ci and, more seldom, vi, which is felt as a scholarly term, can be used as demonstrative pronouns or locative adverbs. They are also used with a reinforcing value in some set phrases.As Romanian language does not have atonic pronouns corresponding to the particles ci and vi acting as demonstrative pronouns or locative adverbs, we first present a synthesis of the characteristics and use of ci and vi in Italian and then we describe how they are translated into Romanian.
