soportad

Soportad is the affirmative imperative form of the Spanish verb soportar for the second-person plural (vosotros). It means “bear,” “endure,” or “tolerate,” and is used to urge a group to withstand something or to support someone or something, either literally or figuratively. The form is typical of Spain and regions where the vosotros form is standard, and it may appear in historical, literary, religious, or formal registers.

In contemporary usage outside Spain, where ustedes is common, the corresponding imperative would be soporten. Soportad

Morphology and construction: soportad is built from the stem soport- plus the present-imperative ending -ad used
