Conseguíeu

Conseguíeu is a Catalan verb form belonging to the verb conseguir, meaning to obtain or to achieve. It is the imperfect indicative form for the second person plural (vosaltres), used to describe habitual or ongoing actions in the past. In this function it corresponds to English “you all were obtaining” or “you all used to obtain,” depending on context.

In Catalan conjugation, conseguid forms in the imperfect indicate actions that were in progress or repeated over time in the past. The specific form conseguíeu (with the acute accent on í) is the standard second-person plural imperfect form of conseguir. This form appears in narratives, descriptions of past routines, or statements about past achievements in a habitual sense.

Etymology and related forms: Conseguir derives from Latin consequī, formed with the prefix con- and the verb sequī (to follow). The Catalan verb shares its origin with related verbs in the Romance family that express obtaining or achieving. In Catalan, as in other Romance languages, the imperfect tense preserves the sense of habitual past actions, distinguishing it from the perfect past tense that denotes completed actions.

Usage notes: Conseguíeu is used when addressing multiple people in informal or formal contexts in regions where Catalan is spoken, such as Catalonia and the Balearic and Valencian-speaking areas, following standard Catalan orthography. The form is typically found in literary, journalistic, or spoken Catalan when describing past patterns of obtaining or achieving something.
