Acompáñemos

Acompáñemos is the first-person plural present subjunctive form of the Spanish verb acompañar, used as an exhortation meaning “let us accompany” or “let’s accompany.” It expresses an invitation or proposal to participate in accompanying someone or something, whether in a physical, emotional, or symbolic sense.

Grammatically, it is formed from the infinitive acompañar with the endings of the present subjunctive for the nosotros form: -emos. The accent on the í indicates stress on the third syllable: acompáñemos. In use, it functions as a collaborative imperative; it is not used as a simple indicative statement. Context determines whether “acompáñemos” refers to accompanying a person, a group, or an action.

Common contexts include community initiatives, humanitarian campaigns, family or caregiving situations, or social campaigns encouraging solidarity. Examples: Acompáñemos a las personas que lo necesitan; Acompáñemos a quienes viajan solos para garantizar su seguridad. In English this is typically rendered as “let us accompany” or “let’s accompany.” There are related forms such as acompañémonos, the reflexive version meaning “let us accompany each other,” and other person-number forms like acompaña, acompañas, acompañamos, acompañáis, acompañan.

Usage notes: the form is widely understood across Spanish-speaking communities and is most common in formal, organizational, or collaborative contexts. It signals inclusive action and a collective responsibility to support others.
