Transmitís

Transmitís is the present indicative form of the Spanish verb transmitir, used for the second-person in certain dialects. The exact subject can vary by region: in Spain and other areas that use the vosotros form, transmitís corresponds to “you all transmit”; in Rioplatense Spanish (Argentina, Uruguay, parts of Paraguay), transmitís is also the vos form meaning “you transmit” (singular). The form is spelled with an accent on the í to mark stress on the last syllable.

Morphology and usage: the ending -ís signals the second person in the present tense for verbs ending in -ir in many dialects. Examples include:

- Vos transmitís datos importantes. (You transmit important data. [singular, voseo])

- Vosotros transmitís datos importantes. (You all transmit data. [plural, vosotros])

In many Latin American dialects that use ustedes instead of vosotros, you would typically say: ustedes transmiten.

Pronunciation and orthography: transmitís is written with an acute accent on í to indicate stress. The pronunciation commonly approximates tran-smi-tís, with the final syllable stressed.

Etymology: transmitir derives from Latin transmittĕre, formed from trans- “across” and mittere “to send.” The modern verb retains the core sense “to transmit” or “to broadcast.”

Notes: The exact usage of transmitís depends on regional norms for second-person forms. In formal or regional standard contexts, you may encounter tú transmites, usted transmite, or ustedes transmiten depending on the country.
