Notice that in English, we say “it,” but in Spanish everything is either “he” or “she” instead. Now, take out a piece of paper, and see if you remember how to write the subject pronouns In Spanish.
She = __________ • He = ________ • They (feminine) ______________ • They = _________________ • All of you = ________________ • You (formal)= ________________ • I = ______________ • We (feminine) = ___________________ • You (friendly) = ____________________ • We = __________________
She = ___ella__ • He = _él___ • They (feminine) ___ellas_____ • They = __ellos_____ • All of you = __ustedes______ • You (formal)= __usted____ • I = ___yo_____ • We (feminine) = _____nosotras_______ • You (friendly) = __tú__________ • We = __nosotros_______
Now, decide which pronoun you could use for the following subjects. For example: If you are talking about “John,” John would be considered “he.” So in Spanish, you could use the pronoun “él” instead of saying “John.” If you are talking about “the girls,” “the girls” would be considered “they” you would use the pronoun “ellas” because they are more than one, and feminine. See which pronoun you would use for the following subjects:
1.Josefina = __ella_____ 2.Marcos = él 3. Rosa y Lidia= _ellas____ 4. Carlos y Manuel = _____ellos____ 5. Juliana y Ramón = ___ellos___ 6. Pedro = ___él_____ 7. I = ____yo___ 8. You = __tú_______
A doctor, if you are talking to him/her = __usted____ My friends =(be careful, think about who they are!) _ellos/ellas_______ Your cat = __él/ella______ His dog = __él / ella________ The puppies = _ellos/ellas___ Your books = ___ellos________ My friends and I = Nosotros/nosotras You and your brother = ustedes
