Conseguid

Conseguid is the second-person plural imperative form of the Spanish verb conseguir, meaning to obtain or to achieve. It is used to issue a direct command to a group of people addressed as vosotros. The form is common in Spain and other regions that retain the vosotros conjugation; in many Latin American varieties the affirmative command is typically rendered with ustedes as consigAN, i.e., consigAN is not correct; the correct form is consigAn or consigáis for negative. (To avoid confusion: the affirmative ustedes command is consigAN, with the form consigAn in pronunciation.)

Conseguir as a word comes from Latin consequī, meaning to follow through or to obtain. In the imperative mood, vosotros forms like conseguid are historically tied to the broader pattern of -ir and -er verbs in the vosotros conjugation, though conseguir remains irregular in other tenses and moods. The negative vosotros imperative is consigáis.

Usage notes: Conseguid is primarily encountered in Spain and in texts or dialogue that preserve the vosotros form. In formal writing or in Latin American Spanish, ustedes commands are standard, for example, "Consigan la información" instead of "Conseguid..." The affirmative vosotros form is often found in instructional, collaborative, or organizational contexts where a group-wide direction is appropriate.

Examples:

- Conseguid los informes antes de la reunión.

- No consigáis perder tiempo con distracciones.
