SUBJECT PRONOUNSA pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun.

WHAT IS A PRONOUN?

It’s a word used instead of a noun (or a phrase containing a noun)Example: `He', `it', `who', and `anything' are pronouns.

When the pronoun is the subject (the person doing the action) of the sentence, it is called a Subject Pronoun.Example: Bob is swimming. He is swimming.

WHAT ARE THE ENGLISH SUBJECT PRONOUNS?

ENGLISH SUBJECT PRONOUNS AND THEIR SPANISH EQUIVALENTS

Spanish subject pronouns are similar to English, but there are some differences.

We = Nosotros (masc. / mixed) Nosotras (fem.)

2nd person

You (familiar) = Tú Y’all (familiar) = Vosotros

Vosotras

3rd person

You (formal) = Usted

He = él She = ella

Y’all (plural) = Ustedes

They (masc. / mixed) = Ellos

They (fem) = Ellas

THE FIRST PERSON SINGULAR PRONOUN “YO”

“Yo” means “I” and is used in the same way as in English.

Note that it is not capitalized unless it starts a sentence: Mi amigo y yo… Yo soy de Estados Unidos.

someone that is familiar to you.

3RD PERSON SINGULAR MASCULINE

ÉL Él = he It is used when talking ABOUT a boy/guy/man. used in the same way as it is in English:

actually writing the Spanish word for “the” él = he el = the

3RD PERSON SINGULAR FEMININEELLA

Ella = she It is used when talking ABOUT a girl/woman. used in the same way as its English

counterpart: Rosa es de Chile. Ella es de Santiago.

Please pronounce it correctly. It sounds like (eh-yah) not (el-lah) Remember ll= y sound.

Use nosotros/ nosotras to talk about a group of people that includes you.

In English we have one word to talk about “we,” but in Spanish, we distinguish between “we” masculine and feminine:

Use nosotros to talk about a group of boys/men.

Use nosotras to talk about a group of girls/women.

Use the masculine pronoun if it refers to a mixed group:

THE FIRST PERSON PLURAL PRONOUN “NOSOTROS / NOSOTRAS”

YOU PLURAL = (Y’ALL)USTEDES

Abbriviated Capital “U”, lower case “d”, lower case “s” period.

moment.

Ellas = They (feminine) It is used when talking ABOUT a group of only females. Please pronounce it correctly.

It sounds like (eh-yahs) not (el-lahs) Remember ll= y sound.

YOU

In English, one may say “YOU” or “Y’all”. These cover aspects of being singular and plural, masculine and feminine, formal and informal.

In Spanish there are 5 ways to express “you” tú usted (Ud.) vosotros vosotras ustedes (Uds.)

Let’s look at the singular forms first. Each one has a specific time when it used. If you use the wrong one, it can be offensive to the person with whom you are speaking.

DIFFERENCES – YOU: TÚ VS. USTED

Tú = you (informal/familiar/friendly)

Use “tú” when talking to people with whom you are on a first name basis.

friendsfamilysmall childrenpeople younger than

you

Usted (Ud.) = you (formal)

Use “Usted” when talking with people to whom you should show respect.

People in authority (police, teachers, bosses, etc.)

StrangersAdults

In Spanish there are three ways to say “all of you” Vosotros Vosotras Ustedes (Uds.)

The Vosotros/Vosotras forms are used primarily in Spain.

We will not use vosotros/as in class, but you need to be aware of it.

DIFFERENCES – Y’ALL

The plural you form “ustedes (Uds.)” Is used differently in Spain and Latin America.

Since we use Latin American Spanish in class, we will only use Uds. to indicate all forms of y’all.

DIFFERENCES – Y’ALL

El Verbo “GUSTAR”

• En español gustar =“to be pleasing”

• In English, the equivalent is “to like”

Spanish and English have a different way to express likes and dislikes

• In English we say: “I like Spanish.”

• In Spanish we say: “To me, Spanish is pleasing.”

Gustar is a special ‘ar’ verb

• Gustar is a special verb that has it’s own set of rules.

• It’s not conjugated like a regular –ar verb, so

it does not follow the drop the ending rule.

• To say “I like” you don’t say “Yo gusto”.

To me = me To us = nos

To you (informal) = te To y’all = os

To you (formal) = le

To him = leTo her = le

To y’all = les

To them = les To them (f) = les

To someone

I am pleasing = gusto To us = nos

You are pleasing (informal) = te

To y’all = os

To you (formal) = le

To him = leTo her = le

Singular objectsInfinitives

To them = les To them (f) = les

Plural objecss

Someone or something is pleasing

How to use GustarMe gusta = I like (To me, it is pleasing…)

Le gusta= Ud./he/she likes (to him/her, it is pleasing…)

Gustar grammar rulesHere are the rules for using gustar. 1. To tell an object/things are pleasing to

you.Me gusta + noun.

Dislikes

• To say something is not pleasing (not like) you place a NO in front of the sentence.

• No me gusta la casa = I don’t like the house•No nos gusta el maestro = we don’t like the teacher

To ask what people like• Te gusta vivir en la casa = You like to live in the house• To make it a question just add ¿ at beginning and ? At end of

the sentence.

¿Les gusta correr? = Do they like to run?

Making Le & Les gusta more specific

• Le gusta = he/she likes & Les gusta = They like• To make it more specific you must start the

sentence with “A” and then the person’s name.• Example:• Le gusta bailar = He/She likes to dance• A Steven le gusta bailar = Steven likes to dance.• A él le gusta bailar = He likes to dance.
