úsalas

úsalas is a Spanish verb form built from the verb usar (to use) and the feminine plural direct object pronoun las. It functions as the affirmative second-person singular imperative (tú), meaning “use them.” The accent on ú marks the stressed syllable and helps preserve the original word stress after attaching the pronoun.

Usage and examples

It is used when addressing someone informally about feminine plural objects, such as las llaves or las herramientas. In a sentence: Úsalas para abrir la caja. The negative form is No las uses. In Spanish, pronouns are attached to the end of affirmative commands, while in negative commands they precede the verb (No las uses).

Form and related variants

The same pattern applies to other gender/number combinations with the verb usar and different pronouns, yielding forms like úsalo (masculine singular), úsala (feminine singular), úsalos (masculine plural), and úsalas (feminine plural). The exact spelling may vary with the pronoun and object.

Notes

asztmUse is common in everyday Spanish, particularly in instructions or guidance that involve handling objects. As with other affirmative commands, the pronunciation and accent help maintain the intended emphasis when pronouns are added.
