recoRÉIS

Recoréis is the second-person plural present indicative form of the Spanish verb recorrer. It is used with the pronoun vosotros and is standard in Spain, where the vosotros form is common; in much of Latin America the corresponding form is ustedes recorren. The meaning of recoréis is to travel through or around a place, to cover a distance by moving along a route, or to pass along a path or landscape. It can describe physical travel, such as a journey through a region, and also metaphorical exploration, such as surveying or examining an area.

Grammatically, recorrer is a regular -er verb. In the present indicative, the stem is recor-, and the ending for vosotros is -éis, giving recoréis. The accent on é marks the stress on the last syllable: re-co-RÉIS. This form contrasts with the present subjunctive 'recorráis' and with the Latin American preference 'ustedes recorren'. Example: Vosotros recoréis el camino desde la plaza hasta la estación.
