Usage notes
This ending corresponds to *voseo*, used in Rioplatense and Central American Spanish. Regarding the subjunctive, Rioplatense Spanish prefers to use the subjunctive forms morphologically associated with the *tú* form, even when the subject is *vos*. It also corresponds to the *vosotros* pronoun, used mainly in Spain and considered archaic in Latin America.
