existimos

Existimos is the Spanish verb form meaning “we exist.” It comes from the verb existir in the present indicative, first-person plural, and functions as a finite verb with an implicit nosotros subject. The form can stand alone as a declarative statement or appear within a larger clause, depending on context.

In addition to its grammatical use, existimos is widely employed in philosophical, literary, and cultural discourse to emphasize presence, agency, and being. In existential and phenomenological discussions, the assertion of existence often serves as a starting point for questions about meaning, identity, and social reality. The phrase also appears in Spanish-language poetry, journalism, and political rhetoric as a bold expression of presence, belonging, or demand for recognition by individuals or groups.

Existimos is sometimes adopted as a title or label for artistic projects, publications, campaigns, or organizations that seek to foreground themes of collective existence, community, and rights. When used in this way, the term signals a focus on what it means to be—together—in a given social or cultural landscape.

Pronunciation typically aligns with standard Spanish, roughly /eɡzísˈti.mos/. Related terms include existir (to exist) and existencia (existence). Because existimos is a common grammatical form, its interpretation depends heavily on surrounding context, making it a versatile vehicle for both ordinary and symbolic statements about being and presence.
