bordemos

Bordemos is a verb form found in Spanish and Portuguese. In both languages it represents the first-person plural of the verb bordar and is used to express an exhortation or proposal, often translating to “let us embroider.”

In Spanish, bordar has two primary senses: to embroider textiles and to border or edge something. Bordemos is the present subjunctive form for nosotros and also serves as the affirmative imperative for the same subject, used in phrases such as “Bordemos estas telas” meaning “Let us embroider these fabrics.”

In Portuguese, bordar carries a similar dual meaning: to embroider and to border. Bordemos functions as the present subjunctive for nós and likewise as the affirmative imperative, as in “Bordemos as peças juntos” (“Let us embroider the pieces together”).

Etymology traces bordar to the Romance verb in the Iberian languages, with the embroidery sense historically linked to decoration along borders or edges. Over time, the term has become specialized in textile contexts, though it remains a general verb with the broader sense of decorating by bordering.
