martes, el veinticinco de septiembre

Spanish I:

  • We went over last week's worksheet.
  • Students learned about pronouns and the verb ser: how to conjugate and how to use it, and when to use the verb estar.
  • Students wrote down what they have learned about the differences between English and Spanish.
Grammar lesson:

The verb ser = to be:
Yo soy = I am        Nosotros somos = We are
Tú eres = you are    Vosotros sois = You are
Él es = He is           Ellos son = They are
Ella es = She is       Ellas son = They are
Usted es = you are  Ustedes son = You are

You use ser for things that can never change or take a long time to change:
- your gender
- your nationality
- your religion
- your job (career)
- your looks and personality
- your origin

You use estar for things that can change quickly:
- feelings
- location
- being sick or healthy
