is it tengo? - 0015d012, Jan 10, 2014

That would be "I am 14". You want to say, "My brother is 14", or literally "My brother has 14 years". - Tosh, Jan 11, 2014

ohh, i know is it tiene? - 0015d012, Jan 11, 2014

I agree with tosh, make an attempt or you will never learn.

Answer 3

You know the conjugation, so it seems your problem is selecting the proper form from the conjugation.

You are talking about "mi hermano". The personal pronoun for this is "he", making this the third person singular.

What is the third person singular form of "tener"?

You already gave the answer!
