Yo Soy Apple
I came upon this website, http://www.yosoyapple.com/
Apparently its name is "Yo Soy Apple" and offers apple iPad and other gadgets. Is their name a joke, a mistake for which they should be sent to the Dunce Corner? Or am I missunderstanding a proper use of the subject pronoun, "Yo" ?

To be honest, that sounds perfectly good to me...
Yo soy Apple... emphasizes the "yo"
... it's NOT like we never use the subject pronouns...
The dunce corner becomes crowded!
jajajaja...Off to the Dunce Corner for them!
Pesta, I've seen many uses of "yo" with a conjugated verb like "soy". Our preacher uses it for emphasis. There are examples of it in the Bible (i.e. Genesis 15:1, NVI, "Yo soy tu escudo" or "I am your shield") where scholarly translators used subject pronouns with conjugated verbs.
I also remember an advertisement for a Mexican fast food restaruant where a small dog was captioned "Yo quiero".
I don't hear them used normally in conversation though, and I certainly avoid them on this forum. Besides, the internet site name for "soyapple" may have already been used by someone else.
