Uyáis

Uyáis is the second-person plural present subjunctive form of the Spanish verb huir, meaning to flee. It is used in subordinate clauses and in contexts that trigger the subjunctive, typically with the subject vosotros. For example: “Espero que vosotros huyáis de allí,” or “Quiero que huyáis antes de que sea tarde.”

In dialects that use the vosotros form (primarily Spain), huyáis is common in everyday speech; in most Latin American varieties, speakers generally use ustedes instead of vosotros, and the corresponding present subjunctive is huyan (for ustedes), as in “Espero que ustedes huyan de allí.” The vosotros form is thus less common in those regions.

Form and morphology: huyáis is the present subjunctive ending for vosotros with the irregular stem huy- from huir. The other present subjunctive forms are yo huya, tú huyas, él/ella huya, nosotros huyamos, ellos/ellas huyan.

Pronunciation: the initial h is silent. The stress falls on the “áis” syllable.
