conducíais

Conducíais is the imperfect indicative second-person plural form of the Spanish verb conducir. This verb means "to drive" or "to lead." The imperfect tense in Spanish is used to describe ongoing or habitual actions in the past, or to set a scene. Therefore, "conducíais" would translate to "you all were driving" or "you all used to drive" in English, depending on the context.

For example, if someone were recounting a past event involving a group of people, they might say, "Vosotros conducíais por la montaña cuando empezó a llover" which translates to "You all were driving through the mountains when it started to rain." Alternatively, if describing a past routine, one might say, "Cuando éramos jóvenes, conducíais a la playa todos los veranos" meaning "When we were young, you all used to drive to the beach every summer."

The verb "conducir" itself is derived from the Latin "conducere," meaning "to lead together" or "to bring together." This etymology hints at the broader meaning of "to lead" which is also encompassed by the verb, though "to drive" is its most common translation in modern Spanish. The imperfect conjugation "conducíais" specifically refers to the action of driving or leading performed by "vosotros," the informal second-person plural pronoun used in Spain. In Latin America, the informal second-person plural is often replaced by "ustedes," and the corresponding verb form would be "conducían."
