agimus

Agimus is the first-person plural present indicative form of the Latin verb agere, meaning to do, drive, act, or conduct. As a member of the third conjugation, its principal parts are ago, agere, egi, actum, and its present indicative forms include ago, agis, agit, agimus, agitis, agunt. Agimus translates most often as “we do” or “we act” and is used to indicate that the subject performs an action in the present time.

In Latin syntax, agere can take a direct object or other complements, and agimus therefore expresses collective action by the subject “we.” The exact nuance depends on context and can range from performing a simple action to carrying out a defined task or project. Agimus appears in classical Latin texts as an ordinary verb form, and like other present-tense forms it can be used in vivid narrative or dialogue.

In English, agimus is not used outside translations of Latin texts; it is encountered in academic or historical writings quoting Latin passages. It is not a widely used term in modern languages beyond scholarly contexts.
