quejabais

Quejabais is a verb form in the Spanish language. Specifically, it is the second-person plural imperfect indicative conjugation of the verb "quejar." The verb "quejar" translates to "to complain" in English. Therefore, "quejabais" literally means "you all were complaining" or "you all used to complain." This form is used in the past tense to describe a habitual or ongoing action of complaining that occurred in the past, as perceived by a group of people being addressed. The imperfect tense in Spanish, unlike the preterite tense, emphasizes the duration or repetition of an action rather than its completion. Thus, "quejabais" would be used in contexts where the complaining was a continuous or recurring behavior among the group. The subject of this verb form is "vosotros," the informal second-person plural pronoun used in Spain. In Latin America, where "ustedes" is commonly used for both formal and informal plural "you," the equivalent imperfect indicative form would be "se quejaban."
