having trouble with verbs

Question

I have been using your site. The work coméis was mentioned (I did not put the accent stress). I am trying to learn Latin American Spanish and on your site it stated it was the plural second person for to eat, but my dictionary does not recognize it. I am having a hard time learning my verbs as it is. HELP

Welcome to the forum! Please remember to capitalize "I" in your sentence and at the beginning of your sentence. Thanks! - rac1, Mar 8, 2013

Answer 1

Coméis is plural second person familiar for "to eat" as used in the vosotros form.

In the Americas, vosotros is replaced by ustedes so there is no differentiation between formal and familiar. Even if you are not going to use this form, you should at least be aware of it.

A good Spanish dictionary will not recognize a word without the proper tilde, but it can offer suggestions as the possible correct word. Example: é is not the same letter as e.

Answer 2

It will all fall into place with study and a lot of practice. Good luck.
