Verb Forms/Pronouns

Question

Can anyone tell me if I've answered the following correctly?

Select the appropriate verb form or pronouns:

Querido Fabián: Esta semana, mis padres (1) (estamos, estan, estar) en Bayamon, Puerto Rico. Mañana van a viajar en tren. (2) (Nos, Me, Los) va a llevar a San Juan donde van a estar otra semana. Mi hermano y yo (3) (son, estan, estamos) en casa de mis tíos Sandra y Ramón en el campo y estamos un poco (4) (equivocados, aburridos, ordenados) aquí. Yo tomo fotos todos los días, pero mi hermano no (5) (los, las, la) mira. él está (6) (enojado, content, ocupado) porque quiere regresar a la ciudad a ver a sus amigos. Hoy, está (7) (hacemos, hacienda, hacer) calor y mañana va a hacer frio. Yo (8) (soy, estar, estoy) junto a la piscine descansando. ¡(9) (Es, Soy, Esta) un día hermoso! Tu amiga, Victoria

Here is what I selected: 1. estan 2. Me 3. estan 4. aburridos 5. los 6. enojado 7. hacer 8. estoy 9. Es

Thank you!

Don't forget the written accents on "estar" forms when they are needed. Written accents are not optional in Spanish when you are learning it. - Jubilado, Jun 26, 2014

Answer 1

Perhaps it would help if you asked yourself who the verb is referring to.

1 - Who's in Bayamon? Mis padres, they ... so as you correctly chose 'están'.

2 - Who is being taken by train to San Juan? still your parents so it's not 'me'.

3 - Who's in the uncle's house? My brother and I so it's not 'están' (they).

etc

4 to 6 are correct

7 - you need how to form the present progressive tense 'to be -ing' - está .... (not the infinitive).

8 and 9 are correct

Thank you. So would the answers for 2-3 and 7 be as follows: 2. Los, 3. estamos, 7. haciendo? - adlmay15, Jun 26, 2014
