Avancéis

Avancéis is the second-person plural form of avanzar in the present subjunctive mood. It is used in subordinate clauses to express wishes, doubts, possibilities, or non-real situations when addressing vosotros, the informal plural you used in Spain.

Morphology and conjugation: For -ar verbs in the present subjunctive, the endings are -e, -es, -e, -emos, -éis, -en. Therefore, avanzar yields: yo avance, tú avances, él/ella/Ud. avance, nosotros avancemos, vosotros avancéis, ellos/ellas/Uds. avancen. The accent on é in avancéis marks the correct stress.

Usage: Avancéis appears after expressions that require the subjunctive, such as es necesario que, es posible que, quiero que, ojalá que, and others. Example: Es importante que avancéis en el proyecto. Espero que avancéis pronto. It contrasts with the present indicative vosotros avanzáis, meaning “you all progress” as a straightforward statement.

Regional notes: The form avancéis is typical of varieties that use the vosotros form, principally Spain. In many Latin American dialects, where the vosotros form is not used, the corresponding present subjunctive for ustedes is avancen (e.g., Es necesario que ustedes avancen). Thus, avancéis is specifically tied to the vosotros paradigm, though the verb avanzar itself is common across Spanish varieties.
