How To Say Together In Spanish For Daily Situations
Most of the time, “together” means people are in one place, doing one thing, or acting as a unit. For that daily meaning, Spanish leans on junto and its forms.
Junto, juntos, junta, juntas
Junto works like “together” in “We’re together” and “Let’s do it together.” It changes to match who you’re talking about.
- juntos for mixed groups or groups of men: Estamos juntos.
- juntas for groups made only of women: Estamos juntas.
- junto (masc. singular): Él está junto a mí.
- junta (fem. singular): Ella está junta a mí. (Rare for “next to”; see below.)
A quick note: when you mean “next to,” Spanish often prefers junto a. When you mean “as a couple,” Spanish often prefers estar juntos. Same root, different feel.
Todos juntos and all together
English “all together” can mean “everyone together” or “not separately.” Spanish often uses todos juntos (mixed or all men) and todas juntas (all women) when you’re talking about people.
- Vamos todos juntos. (Let’s all go together.)
- Entren todas juntas. (All of you come in together.)
When the idea is “not separately,” Spanish often turns to todo junto as a bundle: Pon todo junto en la mesa. (Put it all together on the table.) In that use, it’s about grouping items, not people.
Conjuntamente and en conjunto
When “together” means “jointly,” Spanish can sound more formal. Two common options are conjuntamente and en conjunto. You’ll see them in school writing, work messages, and news-style phrasing.
They’re handy when the focus is on combined effort, not physical closeness. Think “jointly developed,” “taken together,” or “viewed as a whole.”
Juntamente and junto con
Juntamente also means “together,” often close to “along with” or “in combination.” A related pattern is junto con, which is a clean way to say “together with.”
- Fui junto con mi hermano. (I went together with my brother.)
- Juntamente con el equipo, terminamos temprano. (Together with the team, we finished early.)
Pick The Right Meaning Before You Translate
English packs several ideas into one word. Spanish splits those ideas across a few patterns. If you choose the meaning first, the Spanish comes out clean.
Together as “in the same place”
Use juntos/juntas for people doing something side by side.
- Vamos juntos. (We’re going together.)
- Comimos juntos anoche. (We ate together last night.)
Together as “as a couple”
Use estar juntos for dating or being in a relationship. Spanish speakers use this a lot because it’s clear and low-drama.
- ¿Ustedes están juntos? (Are you two together?)
- Ellos ya no están juntos. (They’re not together anymore.)
Together as “all at once”
When “together” means things happen at the same time, Spanish can use a la vez or todos a la vez. This is common in class instructions and daily talk.
- No hablen todos a la vez. (Don’t all talk at once.)
- Salimos a la vez. (We left at the same time.)
Together as “combined”
For totals, bundles, or combined results, Spanish often uses en total, en conjunto, or a verb that signals adding up.
- En conjunto, cuestan 30 euros. (Together, they cost 30 euros.)
- Entre los dos, ganamos suficiente. (Together, the two of us earn enough.)
Gender And Number Rules That Matter
Spanish adjectives match gender and number. Junto follows the same rule, and that’s where many learners slip.
When you want to stress a shared action, add juntos or juntas after the verb.
- Vamos juntos al mercado. (You and I are going together.)
- Vamos juntas al mercado. (Same idea, all women.)
With mixed groups, Spanish uses masculine plural as the default: juntos. You’ll also hear people rephrase when it fits, using entre todos to spotlight the group without choosing between juntos and juntas.
Where To Put “Together” In A Spanish Sentence
In English, “together” moves around easily. Spanish is flexible too, yet there are patterns that sound more natural than others.
After the verb is the safe spot
Trabajamos juntos and comemos juntos sound smooth. It’s the most common placement in conversation.
At the start sets a scene
When you want “together” to frame the whole statement, Spanish often starts with en conjunto or entre phrases.
- En conjunto, la clase avanzó rápido.
Right next to the noun can change meaning
La foto juntos sounds off because Spanish wants the adjective to agree and connect clearly. A clean fix is to add a verb or a preposition: una foto de nosotros juntos or una foto en la que salimos juntos.
Common Translations For “Together” In Spanish
The chart below shows the core options and when each one fits. Use it as a fast picker when you’re writing or speaking.

|---|---|---|

Say It Like You Mean It
Once you’ve picked the right pattern, the next step is getting the sentence shape right. Spanish gives you a few reliable frames that you can reuse again and again.
Frame 1: Verb + juntos/juntas
This is the workhorse for daily plans. Put the verb first, then add juntos or juntas.
- Estudiamos juntos. (We study together.)
- Trabajamos juntas. (We work together.)
- Lo hacemos juntos. (We do it together.)
Frame 2: Estar + juntos/juntas
Use this for “being together” in place or in a relationship, then let context do the rest.
- Estamos juntos en la sala. (We’re together in the living room.)
- Siguen juntos. (They’re still together.)
Frame 3: Junto a + person/place
If you mean “beside,” junto a is your friend.
- Siéntate junto a mí. (Sit next to me.)
- La farmacia está junto al banco. (The pharmacy is next to the bank.)
Frame 4: En conjunto + statement
Use this for totals and combined results. It’s also great when you’re summarizing points across a text.
- En conjunto, las ideas tienen sentido. (Taken together, the ideas make sense.)
- En conjunto, los datos muestran una subida. (Taken together, the data show an increase.)
Frame 5: Junto con + companion
When English uses “together with,” Spanish often goes with junto con. It’s direct and easy to slot into a sentence.
- Fui junto con Ana. (I went together with Ana.)
- Lo preparé junto con mi padre. (I prepared it together with my dad.)
Pronunciation Notes That Save You Trouble
You don’t need a perfect accent to be understood, but a few tiny choices will make juntos sound clean.
Juntos: the “j” and the stress
The j in Spanish is a throaty sound, like a strong “h” in some English accents. JUN-tos has the stress on the first syllable.
Conjuntamente: chunk it
Break it into beats: con-jun-ta-MEN-te. Keep the rhythm steady and you’ll be fine.
Common Mistakes And Easy Fixes
Most slipups come from translating word for word or forgetting that Spanish marks gender and number. The fixes are simple once you see the patterns.
Mistake 1: Using “junta” for groups in general
Junta can be a noun meaning a board, committee, or meeting, depending on context. For “together,” reach for juntos or juntas instead.
Mistake 2: Forgetting juntas for all-women groups
If everyone in the group is female, juntas matches. Mixed groups default to juntos.
Mistake 3: Mixing up “together” and “next to”
Juntos can mean “together,” but junto a is clearer for “next to.” When directions matter, use junto a.
Mistake 4: Overusing formal options in casual talk
Conjuntamente and en conjunto fit school writing and formal speech. For daily chat, juntos usually lands better.
