Arreglan

Arreglan is the present indicative form of the Spanish verb arreglar used for third-person plural subjects (they) or for the formal second-person plural in regions where ustedes is used as the second person plural. The meaning is “they fix” or “you all fix,” depending on the subject.

In typical usage, arreglan is transitive and takes a direct object. Examples include: “Los técnicos arreglan la lavadora” (the technicians fix the washing machine), “Ellos arreglan los muebles” (they repair the furniture), and “Arreglan la avería en la fábrica” (they repair the fault at the plant). The verb can also convey the sense of arranging or organizing something, as in “arreglan la agenda” or “arreglan las cuentas” (settle the accounts).

Regional and idiomatic notes: arreglar can express both repair and arrange, so arreglan appears in contexts ranging from repairing physical objects to solving problems or coordinating plans. The phrase “arreglar cuentas” is a common idiom meaning to settle accounts. In Spain, the second-person plural form is often realized as arregláis in the simple present, which is distinct from arreglan in Latin America.

Related forms: the verb’s other conjugations follow standard patterns: arreglo, arreglas, arregla, arreglamos, arregláis, arreglan; past tense forms include arreglaron; the past participle is arreglado. The noun arreglo (arrangement or repair) is related, as is the noun arreglo referring to a plan or adjustment.
