Desempeñabais

Desempeñabais is a verb conjugation in the Spanish language. Specifically, it is the second-person plural imperfect indicative form of the verb desempeñar. The verb desempeñaraises derived from the verb desempeñar, which has several meanings including to perform, to carry out, to play (a role), or to pawn. Therefore, "desempeñabais" refers to actions performed or carried out by "you all" (vosotros/vosotras) in a past, ongoing, or habitual manner. For example, if someone were describing a past situation involving a group of people they were addressing directly, they might use "desempeñabais" to indicate what those individuals were doing. The imperfect tense in Spanish is used to describe past actions that were not necessarily completed, or to describe habitual actions in the past, or to set the scene. The second-person plural form "desempeñabais" is primarily used in Spain, as in most of Latin America, the second-person plural is replaced by the third-person plural ("ustedes") with corresponding verb conjugations. This verb form would appear in written or spoken Spanish when referring to a past continuous action or a past repeated action performed by a group of people being addressed as "vosotros" or "vosotras".
