Uds
B2 · pron
you (plural)
👥 Uds = ustedes, sounds like 'oo-STEH-dess' — 'you' + 'dess' for a crowd of yous
Uds is the written abbreviation of ustedes, the plural formal 'you' in Spanish. Ustedes comes from usted, itself from the old courtesy title 'vuestra merced' (your mercy), pluralized with -es. Hear 'oos-TEH-dess' and link it to 'you all'.
