Toleremos

Toleremos is a Spanish verb form derived from tolerar, meaning to tolerate. It is the first-person plural form of the present subjunctive mood (nosotros toleremos) and is used in subordinate clauses that require the subjunctive, as well as in exhortative or formal constructions that express a wish or recommendation for a group. It should not be confused with toleraremos, the future indicative form meaning “we will tolerate,” or with toleramos, the present indicative form meaning “we tolerate.”

Etymology and morphology: toleremos comes from tolerar, which ultimately derives from Latin tolerare. The present-subjunctive form toleremos follows the standard pattern for -ar verbs in the nosotros form: que nosotros toleremos.

Usage notes: In Spanish, present-subjunctive forms are triggered by expressions of doubt, desire, necessity, emotion, or possibility, or by certain conjunctions. Toleremos is common in formal writing, policy language, and motivational or ethical statements that address a collective action or attitude.

Examples:

- Es importante que toleremos las diferencias culturales. (It is important that we tolerate cultural differences.)

- Toleremos las opiniones distintas para mantener la convivencia. (Let us tolerate different opinions to maintain coexistence.)

- En el futuro, toleraremos ciertos comportamientos si se basan en el respeto mutuo. (In the future, we will tolerate certain behaviors if they are based on mutual respect.)
