agregas

Agregas is the second-person singular present indicative form of the Spanish verb agregar. It is used when addressing someone informal, meaning “you add” or “you are adding.” The form appears in statements describing the action of adding something to another element, such as a list, quantity, or set.

Etymology and related forms: agregar comes from Latin aggregare, with the root greg- meaning gather or herd and the prefix ad- meaning toward. The verb is related to other verbs that convey combining or summing, such as sumar and añadir. Other conjugations in the present tense include yo agrego, él agrega, nosotros agregamos, vosotros agregáis, ellos agregan. The gerund is agregando and the past simple is agregaste.

Usage and context: agredas is common in technical, mathematical, culinary, and everyday contexts where items are being combined or totalized. In some regions, agregar is preferred in formal or technical writing, while añadir is often used in everyday speech as a synonym for adding. Distinctions between adding numbers, elements, or components are usually inferred from surrounding words rather than from the verb alone.

Examples: Tú agregas los ingredientes al cuenco; Si agregas más datos, el informe cambiará. En programación, puedes decir: “agregas un nuevo registro a la base de datos.”
