ganamos

Ganamos is the first‑person plural present‑indicative form of the Spanish verb ganar, which means “to win,” “to earn,” or “to gain.” In this conjugation the subject is “nosotros” or “nosotras” (we), so ganamos translates as “we win,” “we earn,” or “we gain” depending on context. The verb belongs to the regular –ar conjugation pattern; its full present‑indicative forms are gano (I win/earn), ganas (you win/earn, informal singular), gana (he/she/it wins/earns), ganamos (we win/earn), ganáis (you all win/earn, Spain), and ganan (they win/earn). Ganamos is also used in the present subjunctive (ganemos) and the imperative (ganad, in the plural informal).

In everyday Spanish, ganamos appears in statements about collective achievement, such as “Ganamos el partido” (We
