💡 Grammar Points

A Subject Pronoun

This word acts as the person performing the action in the sentence (the subject). It always requires the verb to be conjugated in the 'vosotras' form (often ending in -áis, -éis, or -ís).

Gender Specificity

Use 'vosotras' ONLY when addressing a group made up entirely of women or girls. If there is even one male in the group, you must use 'vosotros'.

❌ Common Pitfalls

Confusing Regional Use

Mistake: "Using 'vosotras' when speaking in Mexico or Colombia."

Correction: In almost all of Latin America, use 'ustedes' for the plural 'you,' regardless of how formal or familiar you are with the group.

⭐ Usage Tips

The 'You' Forms
