Ahuyentáis

Ahuyentáis is the second-person plural present indicative form of the Spanish verb "ahuyentar." The verb "ahuyentar" translates to "to scare away," "to drive away," or "to frighten off." Therefore, "ahuyentáis" specifically means "you all scare away" or "you all drive away." It is used in informal contexts when addressing a group of people in Spain. In Latin America, the equivalent form would typically be "ahuyentan," which is used for both formal and informal second-person plural address, as well as for the third-person plural. The verb itself is derived from the onomatopoeic sound "uy" which expresses fear or surprise, combined with the verb "ahuyentar," which implies causing this reaction in another. It describes an action of causing something or someone to depart due to fear or intimidation. For example, one might say "Las luces ahuyentáis a los insectos" (The lights scare away the insects). This conjugation is specifically used when the subject of the sentence is "vosotros" (you all, informal).
