Leemos la convocatoria y las bases reguladoras.

Leemos comes from the verb leer (to read).

In this sentence, leemos is the first person plural form in the present indicative, so it means we read.

Depending on context, Spanish present tense can also sound like:

• we read
• we are reading

So without more context, leemos could describe either a general action or something happening now.

Spanish often leaves out subject pronouns because the verb ending already shows who is doing the action.

• leemos = we read

So nosotros is not necessary.
You could say Nosotros leemos la convocatoria y las bases reguladoras, but it would usually only be added for:

• emphasis
• contrast
• clarity

For example:

• Nosotros leemos la convocatoria, pero ellos leen el resumen.

Normally, no.

If you want to say let’s read, Spanish usually uses the subjunctive form:

• Leamos la convocatoria y las bases reguladoras. = Let’s read the call/notice and the regulations/terms.

So leemos is normally just we read / we are reading, not an exhortation.

Spanish often uses the definite article more regularly than English.

Here:

• la convocatoria = the call / the notice / the call for applications
• las bases reguladoras = the governing rules / the official terms and conditions / the regulations

Using la and las sounds natural because these are understood as specific documents.

Also, since there are two separate noun phrases joined by y, each one keeps its own article:

• la convocatoria
• las bases reguladoras

Bases reguladoras is a fixed administrative expression in Spanish, especially in official or legal contexts.

• bases literally means bases, but in this kind of text it often refers to rules, terms, or conditions
• reguladoras means regulating / governing

Together, bases reguladoras refers to the formal rules that govern a process, such as a grant, competition, or public call.

So this is not just any bases—it is a specific official phrase.

In Spanish, adjectives often come after the noun.

So:

• bases reguladoras = literally regulating bases
• more natural English: governing rules, regulatory terms, or official rules

This noun + adjective order is very common in Spanish:

• casa blanca = white house
• normas generales = general rules

Because the adjective must agree with the noun it describes.

The noun is bases, which is:

• feminine
• plural

So the adjective must also be:

• feminine
• plural

That gives:

• reguladoras

Agreement works like this:

• base reguladora = singular feminine
• bases reguladoras = plural feminine

Yes. The singular is la base, which is feminine.

Its plural is:

• la base → las bases

So even though bases ends in -es, it is still the plural of a feminine noun.

That is why the article is las and the adjective is reguladoras.

In everyday Spanish, convocatoria can sometimes mean a calling together or announcement, but in official Spanish it often has a more specific administrative meaning.

In sentences like this, convocatoria often refers to:

• an official call for applications
• a public notice
• an announcement of a procedure, grant, competition, etc.

So the exact translation depends on context, but it is usually something more formal than just a casual call.

Grammatically, yes. But the vocabulary sounds quite formal and administrative.

Words like:

• convocatoria
• bases reguladoras

are common in:

• government documents
• university procedures
• grant applications
• public competitions
• legal or bureaucratic texts

So a native speaker would understand it, but it sounds like something from an official document rather than casual conversation.

It can mean either, depending on context.

Spanish often uses the simple present where English might use either:

• we read
• we are reading

So:

• Leemos la convocatoria y las bases reguladoras could mean We read the notice and the governing rules
• or We are reading the notice and the governing rules

If Spanish wants to stress the ongoing action more clearly, it could also say:

• Estamos leyendo la convocatoria y las bases reguladoras.

The basic order is:

• Leemos = verb
• la convocatoria y las bases reguladoras = direct object

This is a very normal Spanish structure.

You could change the order for emphasis, but the original is the most neutral and natural:

• Leemos la convocatoria y las bases reguladoras.

Possible alternatives might appear in special contexts, but they would usually sound more marked:

• La convocatoria y las bases reguladoras las leemos.
  This adds emphasis and sounds less neutral.

So for a learner, the original sentence is the standard pattern to focus on.

Yes. In this sentence, y simply means and and joins two noun phrases:

• la convocatoria
• las bases reguladoras

So the structure is:

• We read X and Y

One small pronunciation note: y changes to e before words beginning with an i sound, but that does not happen here.

The direct object is:

• la convocatoria y las bases reguladoras

That is what is being read.

So the structure is:

• Leemos = verb
• la convocatoria y las bases reguladoras = direct object

If you replaced it with a pronoun, it would be:

• Las leemos.

That works because the whole object is plural overall in reference, even though it contains two separate feminine noun phrases.
