Omitáis

Omitáis is the second-person plural present subjunctive form of the Spanish verb omitir. It corresponds to “you all omit” in English and is used in subordinate clauses that require the subjunctive mood, such as those expressing doubt, desire, necessity, or emotion, or after conjunctions like para que or a fin de que. The form ends in -áis, a typical vosotros ending for -ir verbs in the present subjunctive, and carries the accent on the vowel of the suffix.

In usage, omitáis appears in contexts where a speaker wishes to convey that omitting is hypothetical, desired, or contingent. Examples include: Es necesario que no omitáis ningún detalle. Espero que no omitáis nada importante. The imperative for vosotros is omitid, while the negative command is no omitáis, which shows how the subjunctive mood often appears in direct instruction or guidance.

Dialect variation is notable. In Spain, where the vosotros form is standard, omitáis is common in everyday written and spoken Spanish. In most Latin American varieties, where ustedes is used instead of vosotros, the corresponding present subjunctive would be omit an for ustedes or omitáis in regions that retain some vosotros usage; broadly, ustedes omitan or simplemente omitan would be used, depending on regional norms.

Etymology traces omitir to the Latin omittere, meaning to send away or overlook. The present subjunctive forms follow standard patterns for -ir verbs in Spanish, including the vosotros ending -áis.
