comés

Comés is the second-person singular present indicative form of the Spanish verb comer when used with the voseo form of address. It is found in varieties that use vos instead of tú, most notably in Argentina and Uruguay, and in some communities in Central America. In standard tú-based Spanish, the corresponding form is comes.

Pronunciation and usage notes: comés is pronounced with the stress on the second syllable, typically transcribed as [koˈmes]. The accent marks the stress and helps distinguish it from other forms in written Spanish. Comés is used with the pronoun vos, as in vos comés, and is one part of a broader vos conjugation system that also affects other verbs (for example, tenés, podés, vivís).

Grammatical context: In voseo varieties, the present indicative forms for vos differ from the tú forms found in other dialects. The imperative for vos also changes, with affirmative commands often formed as comé (you eat). The usage of comés coexists with regional norms where tú forms are preferred or required in formal contexts.

Examples: Comés temprano todos los días. ¿Qué comés hoy? En la región rioplatense, también adheren estructuras como vos comés, but the tú form comes is used in other dialects.
