Imperative with pronoun (facci sapere)
‘Facci’ is the 2nd‑person plural imperative of ‘fare’ combined with the clitic ‘ci’ (us). Together they form the polite request ‘let us know’.
Conditional conjunction ‘se’
‘Se’ introduces a condition, equivalent to ‘if’ in English, and is followed by the verb in the present indicative.
Verb agreement – cambia
‘Cambia’ is the 3rd‑person singular present of ‘cambiare’; the subject is the implicit ‘numero’, which is singular.
Contraction ‘del’
‘Del’ = ‘di + il’; it links the noun ‘numero’ with the complement ‘il tuo gruppo’.
Possessive adjective ‘tuo’
‘Tuo’ agrees in gender and number with ‘gruppo’ (masculine singular).

Cultural Tip
‘Facci sapere’ is friendly yet respectful; in very formal contexts you would use the third‑person form ‘ci faccia sapere’. Avoid the literal ‘numero di gente’, which sounds colloquial. In some northern regions people often say ‘fateci sapere’ when addressing a group, but the singular ‘facci sapere’ works universally.
