reconsideramos

Reconsideramos is the first-person plural present indicative form of the Spanish verb reconsiderar. It translates as “we reconsider” or “we rethink” and is used when the speakers and others reexamine a previous decision, plan, or position.

Origin and morphology: Reconsiderar is formed from the prefix re- attached to considerar, which comes from Latin considerare, meaning “to contemplate” or “to study.” Reconsiderar is a regular -ar verb, so the form reconsideramos corresponds to the nosotros subject in the present tense.

Usage and nuance: The term is common in formal, administrative, or organizational discourse, where a group reassesses a prior choice. It can signal a willingness to adjust a stance in light of new information, arguments, or consequences. It does not necessarily imply a complete reversal, but rather a careful reevaluation of the grounds for a decision.

Examples: Reconsideramos nuestra posición tras revisar los datos. En la reunión, reconsideramos la propuesta original.
