Numbers, Personal Pronouns, and more!

 These past few weeks, we learned about personal pronouns and the differences between “tú”, ”usted”, and “ustedes” in Spanish. Personal pronouns are used before verbs to tell who is doing the action in Spanish, but you don’t always have to use them. The ending of the verb tells us who is doing the action. For example, yo visito= visito, tú visitas= visitas, nosotros visitamos= visitamos.

In Spanish, there are three ways of saying “you”:

Tú  (casual) - used it when “you” represents a person who you speak to by their first name.  

Usted (formal) - used it when “you” represents a person who you speak to with a title before their name, such as Dr., Mr., Mrs., Doctor (Dr.), Señor (Sr.) Senora (Sra.)

Ustedes (you all) - used it when “you” represents a group of people, no matter their age or if they have a title before their name.
