hacéis

Hacéis is the second-person plural present indicative form of the Spanish verb hacer. It is used with the pronoun vosotros and is characteristic of what is spoken in Spain. The verb hacer means “to do” or “to make,” so hacéis corresponds to “you all do” or “you all make.”

Conjugation and usage information: The present tense forms of hacer are hago, haces, hace, hacemos, hacéis, hacen. The accent on hacéis marks the stressed syllable. The "h" is silent, and the "c" before "e" is pronounced as a soft c, which in some dialects sounds like a sibilant. Hacéis is restricted to contexts where vosotros is used; in most of Latin America, the vos form or ustedes is used instead, with ustedes hacéis or hacen depending on regional norms, but the vosotros/Hacéis pair is not used there.

Regional variation: In regions that use vos, the corresponding second-person plural form is typically ustedes, with forms such as ustedes hacen for “you all do.” Where vosotros exists (primarily Spain and some areas of the Caribbean), hacéis is the standard second-person plural present. Some dialects outside Spain that employ voseo use vos hacés instead of hacéis, but this is a separate conjugation system.

Examples: ¿Qué hacéis ahora? (What are you all doing now?) Hacéis un buen trabajo. (You all are doing good work.)
