To discuss health… • caminar – to walk • hacer ejercicio – to exercise • (yo) hago – I do • (tú) haces – you do • levantarpesas – to lift weights • para lasalud – for one’s health • para mantenerlasalud – to maintain one’s health
To indicate a preference… • (yo) prefiero – I prefer • (tú) prefieres – you prefer • The –IR verb preferir : • yoprefieronosotrospreferimos • tú prefieresvosotrospreferís • élprefiereellosprefieren • This verb is known as a stem-changer. The endings are all the same as a regular –ir verb, but the stem changes from e i in all forms except nosotros and vosotros. • deber – should/must
To talk about being hungry/thirsty… • Tengo hambre – I’m hungry • Tengo sed – I’m thirsty • The (irregular) verb tener: • yotengo nosotrostenemos • tútienesvosotrostenéis • Ud. tieneUds. tienen él/ella ellos/ellas
To indicate agreement or disagreement… • creer – to think • creo que… - I think • creo que sí / no … - I think so/I don’t think so • (no) estoy de acuerdo – I (don’t) agree
To ask a ? Or give an answer… • ¿Por qué? – Why? • porque – because • The way I remember the difference is like this: if the question is “why” (and all interrogatives in Spanish have an accent) then the answer is the one without the accent and it’s all one word because the answer means it’s “come together.” Silly? Maybe, but it helps me, maybe it will help you.
Recap of interrogatives… • Who? ¿Quién? • What? ¿Qué? • When? ¿Cuándo? • Where? ¿Dónde? • Why? ¿Por qué? • How? ¿Cómo? • Which? ¿Cuál? • How many? ¿Cuántos?
Más vocabulario… • algo – something • muchos/as – many or alot • todos/as – all • horrible – horrible • malo/a – bad • sabroso/a – tasty, flavorful • cada día – every day
The verb “ser” • This is a VERY important verb. It means “to be” but is different from the previous form “estar” in its meaning. • It is an irregular verb, so it must be memorized. • yosoynosotros somos • tú eresvosotros sois • él esellos son
Ser versus estar: A mnemonic device that puts estar in itsP.L.A.C.E • Most devices aiming to outline the use of ser and estar focus on both verbs, while this mnemonic device (P.L.A.C.E) focuses on one verb only: estar. • "P.L.A.C.E" summarizes the uses of estar. Just memorize five words that end with -tion (simply referred to as "-tion words") and form the acronym "P.L.A.C.E": • Position Location Action ConditionEmotion
The acronym "P.L.A.C.E" certainly simplifies the selection between ser and estar in that it becomes a matter of elimination. If one needs to express something that is not of the five -tion words, then one must use ser. • Ser is usually used to express something that doesn’t change- where you are from, what you are like, etc. ¿De dónde eres? Thank you to Keith Mason for usage of this mnemonic device.
Position: expresses the physical position of posture of a person or thing: Ella está sentado (She is sitting.) • Location: expresses where places, people, or things are located: El libro está debajo de la mesa. • Action: expresses the result of an action: Estoy comiendo ahora. (I am eating now.) • Condition: expresses health and other changeable states: ¿Estás lleno? (Are you full?) • Emotion: expresses emotions such as: Estoy triste. (I am sad.) • but one must remember that alegre, melancólico and feliz are considered inherent character traits, and not simply experienced emotions that may change.
Both of these sentences mean different things although spelled exactly the same: • The apple is green.(Meaning the apple is not ripe.) • The apple is green.(Meaning the color of the apple is green.) • La manzana está verde. (ESTAR) • The apple is green. (condition) • La manzana es verde. (SER) • The apple is green. (essence)
