aceitais

Aceitais is the second-person plural present indicative form of the Portuguese verb aceitar, used with the archaic or regional pronoun vós to address you all. It denotes the action of accepting or agreeing that is carried out by two or more people in the present tense.

In contemporary Brazilian Portuguese, the vós form is rarely used, and aceitais is typically avoided in everyday speech. Instead, speakers use vocês aceitam, which corresponds to the same person and number. In Portugal and other Lusophone communities that preserve the vós form, aceitais may appear in formal writing, historical texts, or regional speech.

Example: Vós aceitais as condições do acordo. This illustrates how the form functions in a sentence with subject pronoun agreement.

Etymology: The verb aceitar derives from Latin acceptare, from acceptus, related to the broader Latin root accipere meaning to take or to receive. The present plural form aceitais inherits the same root through standard Portuguese verb conjugation patterns for -ar verbs in the vós paradigm.

Notes: Aceitais is primarily of grammatical and historical interest, reflecting older or regional usage of the second-person plural in Portuguese. It is not a separate word with a meaning beyond the conjugated verb form aceitar.
