💡 Grammar Points

Matching the Item, Not the Owner

'Vuestras' shows that the group you are talking to owns something, but it must match the gender and number of the thing being owned (like 'casas' or 'mochilas'), not the owners.

The 'Vosotros' Connection

This word is exclusively used when speaking to a group of friends or equals (the 'vosotros' form), which is common in Spain but replaced by 'ustedes' in most of Latin America.

❌ Common Pitfalls

Forgetting Gender Agreement

Mistake: "Me gustan vuestros flores. (Flowers are feminine: 'flores')"

Correction: Me gustan vuestras flores. (Always use the feminine form 'vuestras' when the owned items are feminine plural.)

⭐ Usage Tips

Regional Use

If you are learning Spanish for use in Spain, use 'vuestras' often. If you are learning for Mexico or Colombia, you should use 'sus' instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

If I am learning Latin American Spanish, should I use 'vuestras'?

No. In nearly all of Latin America, the 'vosotros' form is not used. Instead of 'vuestras,' you should use 'sus' to mean 'your' (referring to a group of people).

How do I know if I should use 'vuestras' or 'vuestros'?

Look at the object being owned. If the object is feminine plural (like 'mesas' or 'camisetas'), use 'vuestras'. If the object is masculine plural (like 'perros' or 'juegos'), use 'vuestros'.
