c

c

The Italian word "c'" is a contraction of "ci," meaning "there" or "it is" in contexts like "there is" (c'è) or "there are" (ci sono).

In this sentence, 'c'' is the short form of 'ci,' used here as a dummy subject in the impersonal expression 'c'è,' which means 'there is.'

C'è una bella vista dalla finestra.

There is a beautiful view from the window.

Here, 'c'' forms 'c'erano,' which is the plural past form of 'c'è,' meaning 'there were.'

Ho sentito il consiglio; c'erano molte idee interessanti.

I heard the meeting; there were many interesting ideas.

'C' is part of the phrase 'c'entrare,' which means 'to be relevant or involved.'

Se c'entrano altre persone, deve avvisarle.

If other people are involved, you must inform them.
