  1. Los Pronombres M/J Spanish 1 1.05

  2. Before you start this unit, let’s review a few English grammar points. In English, when we talk about the subject of a sentence we are talking about…

  3. …the main idea of a sentence. For example, in the sentence, “The boy listens to great music.” “boy” is the subject, because the sentence is about him.

  4. If we want to talk about the boy as the subject of a sentence we could use the pronoun “he”.

  5. The sentence then becomes: He listens to great music.

  6. “He” is the subject pronoun.

  7. Do you know what the subject pronouns are in English?

  8. The subject pronouns in English are I You He She We They

  9. The subject pronouns in Spanish are yo tú él ella usted nosotros vosotros ellos ellas ustedes

  10. Why so many compared to English?

  11. How many different ways do we say “you” in English if we use slang? How about:Yo!Youse Youse guys Y’all All y’all Any others???

  12. In Spanish, there are at least four (4) proper ways to say “you”: • tú • usted • vosotros • ustedes

  13. …And there are two ways to say “they”” ellos ellas

  14. So remember:Spanish isn’t English isn’t Spanish isn’t English…

  15. Let’s go over those Spanish pronouns:Yo Means I “I am a yo-yo…

  16. Tú means you, my friend or familiar one …you are a tu-tu…

  17. Él means he …he rides the El train...

  18. Ella means she …with my Aunt Ella….

  19. ‘Want to know what they all mean?

  20. Los Pronombres • yo • tú • él • ella • usted • nosotros • vosotros • ellos • ellas • ustedes • I • you, informal, singular • he • she • you, singular, formal • we • you, plural, informal • they • they • you, plural, formal

  21. … there’s more to come! • We’ll talk more about how and when to use the different forms as we go along. • For now, because I am your teacher, you would use the “usted” form when addressing me. • Because you are my younger students, I would use the tú form when addressing one of you, and either the vosotros or ustedes form when addressing a group.
