Reconocerlas

Reconocerlas is a Spanish term formed by the verb reconocer (to recognize) and the feminine plural direct object pronoun las. As a clitic construction, reconoc erlas functions as a grammatical unit meaning to recognize them, where las refers to feminine plural nouns or people previously mentioned. It is not a single dictionary entry but a combination that changes with tense, mood, and sentence structure.

Grammatical notes: In Spanish, clitic pronouns attach to the end of an infinitive, a gerund, or an affirmative command, producing forms such as reconocerlas, reconociéndolas, or reconócelas. In compound tenses or periphrasis, the pronoun can also appear before the auxiliary verb, as in Las voy a reconocer, or after the verb in an infinitive construction, as in Voy a reconocerlas. The pronoun must agree in gender and number with the noun it replaces.

Usage and examples: The phrase is typically used when the subject is about identifying or acknowledging feminine plural entities. Examples include: Tenemos que reconocerlas (We have to recognize them); Voy a reconocerlas (I am going to recognize them); Reconócelas (Recognize them, as a positive imperative); No las reconozcas (Do not recognize them); Reconociéndolas (recognizing them).
