Afirmáis

Afirmáis is a form of the Spanish verb "afirmar," which translates to "to affirm," "to state," or "to assert" in English. Specifically, "afirmáis" is the second-person plural present indicative form of the verb. This means it is used when speaking to or about "you all" (vosotros/vosotras) in Spain, when referring to something that they are currently doing or that is a fact for them. For example, a sentence might be "Vosotros afirmáis que la tienda está abierta," meaning "You all state that the store is open." In Latin America, where the pronoun "vosotros" is generally not used, this form would be uncommon, and the equivalent expression would typically use "ustedes" with the third-person plural verb form "afirman." The verb "afirmar" itself carries connotations of conviction and certainty in the statement being made. It is a regular -ar verb in Spanish, meaning its conjugation follows standard patterns.
