cerremos

Cerremos is a Spanish verb form derived from cerrar, meaning to close or shut. It appears primarily in two grammatical contexts: as the first-person plural present subjunctive form (nosotros) and as the inclusive nosotros imperative, used to propose a collective action, “let us close.”

In the present subjunctive, cerremos follows the same pattern as other -ar or -er verbs in the nosotros form, producing cerremos. The full present-subjunctive paradigm for cerrar is: yo cierre, tú cierres, él cierre, nosotros cerremos, vosotros cerréis, ellos cierren. This form is used in subordinate clauses to express wishes, doubts, possibilities, or actions dependent on another statement, often after verbs or expressions of necessity, desire, recommendation, or uncertainty (for example, “Es necesario que cerremos la ventana,” “Espero que cerremos el trato”).

As the inclusive imperative for the nosotros subject, cerremos is used to issue a direct suggestion or command involving the speaker and others, comparable to saying “let us close” in English. For example, “Cerremos la tienda por hoy” or “Cerremos la puerta antes de salir.” This usage is common in everyday speech, especially in collaborative or group contexts.

Cerremos is not a standalone noun or proper name; it is strictly a verbal form. It is closely related to other forms of cerrar, including cerramos (we close) in the indicative and cierres or cierre in other tenses and persons. In usage, the choice between subjunctive and imperative relies on the speaker’s intent: hypothetical, desired action versus a direct invitation to act together.
