Of course, if we wanted we could replace the person mentioned with the indirect pronouns, for example: In all of the foregoing sentences Marco, Lucia and i miei amici are explicit.
Ai miei amici manca viaggiare – My friends miss traveling. A Lucia non manca la sua vecchia casa – Lucia doesn’t miss her old house. A Marco manca l’italia – Marco misses Italy. When the person who misses something is explicit (is mentioned), the noun must be preceded by the preposition “a“: Why do you use “ a” before mancare, sometimes? Mancare in the present tense 3° person singular Mi mancano i miei amici → I miss my friends. Ti manca viaggiare? → Do you miss traveling?. Mi manca + singular noun, or verb (in the infinitive form). Use the verb “mancare” with the following pattern: Instead we use the forms mi manca or mi mancano, which are the third personal singular and plural conjugations of the verb mancare + the appropriate indirect pronoun. That’s why in Italian we can’t say “manco” (which literally would mean something like, “I am lacking”). Impersonal verbs are conjugated with indirect objects pronouns and in the third persons singular and plural. The mi is an indirect pronoun and it’s used because mancare doesn’t follow a regular conjugation pattern, but it has the same construction of the verb “ piacere”.īoth verbs piacere and mancare are known as “impersonal verbs”. Why so? What does the “ mi” in front stand for? The verb “ mancare” 
If you want to say “I miss” in Italian, you should say “ mi manca” and not “ manco”.
