Welcome, Juju. You can edit the title by going into "edit" and correcting tambiér to también and you will get an edit badge! Good luck with your Spanish studies! - sanlee, Dec 1, 2014
Also please use proper capitalizationion by capitalizing the first letter of your first sentence (Which) because we have people learning English here, too. Thank you:)) - sanlee, Dec 1, 2014

Be verily welcomed to our good ship, the S.S. SpanishDict!

Sorry about that Juju. My pet monkey, William, typed in this reply before I could stop him. As he said though, you must include an attempt before we will help you with your work! This response is also for your previous post.

Thanks!


By the way, Son and Es are of the same verb, Ser. I'm pretty sure that this isn't a matter of knowing what verb to use (like Ser and Estar), it's matching the number of subjects with the appropriate tense.

Think about it. "Abuelo" is singular, yes? You only have one, not two or three or four. So which verb tense is used with a singular subject?

Hope this helps!
