Questions & Answers about Obtenemos el seguro específico por producción.

What does obtenemos mean here, and what form is it?

Obtenemos is the 1st person plural present indicative form of obtener.

• obtener = to obtain / to get
• obtenemos = we obtain / we get

So the verb tells you:

• who is doing the action: we
• when: usually now, generally, or as a regular fact, depending on context

It is an irregular verb, but only partly. Its pattern is related to tener:

• tengo
• obtengo

But in nosotros, it becomes regular-looking:

• obtenemos

Examples:

• Obtengo un permiso. = I get a permit.
• Obtenemos resultados. = We get results.

Why doesn’t the sentence say nosotros obtenemos?

Because Spanish often drops subject pronouns when they are not needed.

The ending -emos already tells you the subject is we. So obtenemos by itself already means we obtain / we get.

That means:

• Obtenemos el seguro... = natural
• Nosotros obtenemos el seguro... = possible, but more emphatic

You would include nosotros only if you want contrast or emphasis, for example:

• Nosotros obtenemos el seguro, no ellos.
  = We get the insurance, not them.

Why is it el seguro and not ?
