agregasteis

Agregasteis is the second-person plural form of the Spanish verb agregar in the pretérito perfecto simple (preterite). It corresponds to the English "you all added" and is used mainly in Spain when addressing a group informally in the past.

Etymology and meaning: agregar comes from Latin adgregare, meaning to join or add. In modern Spanish, agregar means to add, append, or combine elements. The participle is agregado and the gerund is agregando.

Conjugation notes: agregar is a regular -ar verb, so its preterite forms are: yo agregué, tú agregaste, él agregó, nosotros agregamos, vosotros agregasteis, ellos agregaron. The vosotros form agregasteis is characteristic of the Spain variety of Spanish and is not commonly used in most Latin American dialects, which tend to use ustedes with the same form as ellos (agregaron) in the past tense. The present tense forms for vosotros are agregáis, and the imperfect forms include agregabais.

Usage and regional variation: agregar is widely used in contexts like lists, ingredients, data, and textual revisions. Agregasteis is appropriate when narrating a completed action carried out by a group addressed informally in Spain. In Latin American Spanish, speakers typically replace this with ustedes agregaron in the pretérito and ustedes agregan in the present.

Examples: Ayer, vosotros agregasteis cinco referencias al informe. En la receta, vosotros agregasteis la sal y la pimienta. Nota: for formal or mixed-regional contexts, usar ustedes agregaron is more common.
