presentan

Presentan is the third-person plural present indicative form of the Spanish verb presentar. It is used to indicate that a group of subjects is performing the action of presenting. The verb can refer to exposing information, proposing something, presenting evidence, or introducing people to an audience, among other senses.

Common uses include presenting findings, ideas, or products, as well as introducing individuals to others. Examples: “Los científicos presentan sus resultados en la conferencia,” or “Las partes presentan sus argumentos ante el comité.” As a transitive verb, presentar requires a direct object that specifies what is being presented, such as “un informe,” “un producto,” or “una propuesta.” It can also be followed by a prepositional phrase to introduce people: “presentar a alguien,” though the subject must be plural for the form presentan (e.g., “El comité y la junta presentan a los nuevos becarios”).

Conjugation note: presentan corresponds to the present indicative for third-person plural. Related forms include presento (yo presento), presentas (tú presentas), presenta (él/ella/usted presenta), presentamos (nosotros presentamos), presentáis (vosotros presentáis), and presentan (ellos/ellas/ustedes presentan). The verb also has subjunctive and imperative forms derived from the same root.
