hagáis

Hagáis is the second-person plural present subjunctive form of the Spanish verb hacer, meaning to do or to make. It is used in subordinate clauses that express wishes, doubts, emotions, necessity, or possibility when the subjunctive mood is required and the subject is vosotros.

In practice, hagáis appears in contexts such as: quiero que hagáis la tarea, espero que hagáis el informe mañana, or es importante que hagáis el esfuerzo. The form is characteristic of the vosotors conjugation in Spain, where the vosotros form is common in informal address. In much of Latin America, where ustedes is used instead of vosotros, the corresponding present subjunctive is hagan, and hagáis is less frequent outside of formal, pedagogical, or regional contexts.

Morphologically, hagáis is formed from the stem hag- plus the present-subjunctive tú- and vosotros endings appropriate for -ar verbs, with the accent marking the stress on the last syllable. The verb hacer itself has an irregular history in other tenses, but hagáis follows the standard -áis ending pattern for vosotros in the present subjunctive.

Etymology-wise, hacer derives from Latin facere, and hagáis reflects the historical evolution of the present subjunctive for -ar verbs in the Spanish verb system. In teaching materials and formal writing seeking to reflect Peninsular usage, hagáis remains a canonical form for the vosotros subject.
