I read a Q&A.
Q: ¿Las chicas están poniendo la mesa?
A: Alicia sí está poniéndola, pero Dolores está hablando por teléfono.

Hola, Ian. Thank you for answering my question, but "está" means "is", why does this sentence need "sí" here? - joygogo, Jul 30, 2013
"is indeed" - chileno, Jul 30, 2013
It is like when we in English empasise the "is" in English by putting stress on it.. - ian-hill, Jul 30, 2013
Got it! Thank you and Chileno. - joygogo, Jul 31, 2013
