partís

Partís is the second-person plural present indicative form of the Spanish verb partir, meaning “you all split” or “you all depart,” depending on context. Partir is a regular -ir verb, with present-tense forms: parto, partes, parte, partimos, partís, parten. The vosotros form partís is used in Spain and some dialects, and it carries an acute accent on the í to indicate the stress falls on the last syllable.

Regional usage and meaning. In Spain, partís is the standard form for addressing a group in the present tense. In most of Latin America, the corresponding present-tense form for ustedes is part en, parten, rather than partís, since ustedes replace vosotros in everyday speech. The verb partir has two broad senses: to split or divide something (partir una pizza, partir un objeto) and to depart or leave a place (partir hacia una ciudad). Context determines which sense is intended.

Examples. Partís mañana para Madrid. (You all depart for Madrid tomorrow.) Partís las galletas entre los invitados. (You all split the cookies among the guests.) No partáis antes de la hora prevista. (Do not depart before the scheduled time — vosotros form in the negative imperative.)

Origins and related forms. Partir derives from Latin partire, linked to the idea of division or breaking apart. The form partís, like other vosotros endings, reflects traditional Spanish second-person plural conjugation, which remains standard in Spain and in some regional varieties.
