There are three possible past historic forms, (a) irregular comparvi/comparve; (b) irregular comparsi/comparse; (c) regular comparii/comparì. Each has different uses; see above for the specifics. All three can be used interchangeably only in the senses "to appear to be (something)" and "to be revealed". The past participle comparso is the same for all uses. The variant comparito is rare. === Related terms === comparente comparita comparizione comparsa === See also === apparire dirittare === Anagrams === carpiremo, comprerai, imporcare, mericarpo, ricompare, ricompera
