Rule reminder
In formal written Italian (academic papers, legal documents, journalism, business communication), the subjunctive is used more consistently than in spoken language. Master these patterns for professional competence: verbs of recommendation (si raccomanda che, si suggerisce che), reporting uncertainty (si ipotizza che, si ritiene che), and formal requirements (è previsto che, è stabilito che).
It is believed that the manuscript dates back to the 14th century. Choose the correct form: 'Si ritiene che il manoscritto _____ al XIV secolo.'
