comunicáis

Comunicáis is the second person plural present indicative form of the Spanish verb comunicar. It is used with the pronoun vosotros, the informal plural you, and is common in Spain and in communities that retain the vosotros form. The meaning is "you all communicate." The form is built from the stem comunic- plus the present-tense ending -áis for vosotros, and the acute accent on í marks the stress on the last syllable of the word.

In regional practice outside Spain, where the pronoun vosotros is not used, the corresponding form for ustedes is comunican, as in ustedes comunican, meaning "you all communicate." This makes comunicáis a feature associated with vosostros-dominant varieties of Spanish rather than with Latin American varieties, which typically prefer ustedes with the third-person plural form.

Examples illustrate its use: “Vosotros comunicáis las ideas de forma clara” or “¿Cómo comunicáis las noticias a los lectores?” Note that comunicáis is a present-tense form and should not be confused with the present subjunctive for vosotros, which is comuniquéis. The verb comunicar itself is regular in its conjugation across tenses, with the vosotros form following the standard -ar verb pattern for present indicative.
