vosotros is the plural for of second person, in english you use "you" same for singular or plural.

In spanish... second person in singular "you" = tu
but plural is vosotros (or vosotras in femenin)...in normal and coloquial way.

But again second plural way... "you pluyral" can be "ustedes", which is most used in latinoamerica.

In Spain "ustedes" is not used any more, only in very specific respectful situations like court or contracts, or if you want to give and special and super idea of respect to other guy.

in my Dominican knowledge, ustedes is only used by dominicans, puertoricans,and mexicans. vosotros is the same exact thing as ustedes, exept its a little bit more FORMAL.

Vosotros: you all, you guys, you people etc.............

Patient in...

Okay, my Spanish teacher lived in Spain for four years and she said that vosotros is used all the time and she said it is said to refer more to friends than anything else (if you are from Spain please explain this form!!)

I'm from Spain, and "vosotros/vosotras" is used like "you", as second person in plural, for singular we use "tú", and first person in plural is "nosotros/nosotras". "Ustedes" is not used, only in some regions, like the Canary Islands.
"Usted" is used instead of "tú" in formal letters, formal conversations (at work)...

-->Escribís /Escribéis doesn't exist.

I'm Spanish and I don't use "ustedes"; it's weird for me to use it. It's like overformal.

You could say Vosotros is useless outside Spain, because every other Spanish Speaking countries uses Ustedes.

Almost. My Peruvian Spanish teacher says that it's used in some countries, like Argentina. Not sure if it's that specific country but it's a small minority. Maybe in that country in Africa that used to speak Spanish formally.
