Usage Note
Occorrente used as an adjective means 'needed' or 'required' in formal Italian — il materiale occorrente (the required material). As a noun, l'occorrente means 'everything needed, the necessary items' — porta l'occorrente per scrivere ('bring everything you need for writing'). This noun use is idiomatic and has no direct word-for-word translation. Do not confuse with occorrere meaning 'to be necessary' (impersonal verb).
Examples
"Porta tutto l'occorrente per il corso."
Natural Translation
Bring everything necessary for the course.
