finire means "to finish; end".

The Romantic Languages such as Spanish, French, Italian, etc. have this second-person tense, e.g. known more commonly by the French word 'vous'

The bracket usually goes like:
Verb Tense Conjugation
Code:
I   | We
You | You (plural)
He/ | Them
She/
It
the word you are offering (which is in the 2nd row, 1st column) is the imperfect (imperfetto) past tense of the verb finire, which should only used to describe an action presented by a singular person (you- tu).

If you still can't follow the variable conjugations for the verb, one of my bookmarked sites finally comes in handy for you!
