ingresarlas

Ingresarlas is a Spanish non-finite verb form created by attaching the feminine plural direct object pronoun las to the infinitive ingresar, yielding the meaning “to enter them.” The construction is used when the feminine plural objects are referred to in the surrounding discourse, and it is common in administrative, data-entry, and similar contexts.

Grammatically, ingresar is the base verb meaning to enter, log, or register. When a direct object pronoun refers to feminine plural nouns, las can be attached to the infinitive to form ingresarlas. The same idea can also be expressed by placing the pronoun before the conjugated verb (Las voy a ingresar) or after the infinitive (Voy a ingresarlas), depending on the sentence structure and the speaker’s preference. The form ingresarlas remains non-finite and typically appears in clauses that require an infinitive or after auxiliary verbs.

Usage notes: In formal writing, some style guides prefer separating the pronoun from the infinitive or using a finite verb form, but both las ingresarlas and las voy a ingresar are grammatically acceptable in many varieties of Spanish. The pronoun must agree in gender and number with the referent (las for feminine plural). If the object is masculine or mixed gender, a different form would be used (ingresarlos).

Examples:

- Voy a ingresarlas hoy.

- Debemos ingresarlas en la base de datos.

- Las voy a ingresar mañana.
