Which is the imperfect form of escribir for vosotros?

• A. Escribía
• B. Escribíais
• C. Escribíamos
• D. Escribían

Answer: (B)

When forming the imperfect for -er/-ir verbs with vosotros, you use the ending -íais. Escribir is an -ir verb, so its imperfect vosotros form is escribíais. This ending matches the subject pronoun vosotros (you all) and describes past actions that were ongoing or habitual, like “Vosotros escribíais cartas cada semana.” The other forms fit different subjects: -ía is used for yo or él/ella/Ud, -íamos for nosotros, and -ían for ellos/ellas/Uds.
