vosotrosestáis

Vosotrosestáis is a Spanish word that represents the second-person plural informal conjugation of the verb "estar," which means "to be." It is used when addressing a group of people informally in Spain. The phrase translates directly to "you all are" or "you guys are." This conjugation is specific to Spain and is not used in most Latin American Spanish-speaking countries, where other forms like "ustedes" (formal and informal) are typically employed for the second-person plural. The verb "estar" itself is used to indicate temporary states, locations, conditions, and emotions, distinguishing it from "ser," another verb for "to be" that denotes more permanent characteristics. Therefore, "vosotrosestáis" would be used in contexts such as describing the current location of a group of friends ("Vosotros estáis en el parque" - You all are in the park) or their temporary emotional state ("Vosotros estáis muy contentos" - You all are very happy). The existence of "vosotros" and its corresponding verb conjugations highlights a significant grammatical distinction between Peninsular Spanish and many Latin American dialects.
