What grammar words should I use here?
I am having trouble with a practice worksheet because the grammar word options here are similar.
Here are the questions:
1) Marta y yo ____ el centro commercial. (van or vamous?) I think it is van.
2) Mis amigos (my friends) ___ al gimnasio para practicar deportes (va or van)
3) Adonde vas para comer? __ al cafe (vas or voy)
4) __ vas al cine -con mis amigos (por que or con quien)
5) ___ es el profesor de espanol (que or quein)
6) ___ es el profesor de espanol -es una profesor paciente (cuel or como)
7) ___ esta mi libro de mathematicas -esta en mi mochila (donde or adonde)
8) ___ vas al cine - voy al cine porque quirto (I want) ver una pelicula (cuando or por que)
9) ____ enstudiantes hay en la clase de espanol (que or cuantos)
These words are tricky because some have a similar meaning. Which ones do I pick?

For the first couple of sentences, look at the subject and replace it with a pronoun. I'll help you with the first one.
Marta y yo (Marta and I) it's the same as saying we or nosotros, now conjugate the verb "ir" for the subject "nosotros". You can use this to help you if you don't remember the conjugations.
For the rest, you can use a translator to figure out what the words mean. You won't have a problem figuring out the answers once you know what they mean.
I'll help you with the last one:
---- estudiantes hay en la clase de español? / --- students are there in the Spanish class?
Would you use what (que) or how many (cuántos)?
I sometimes have trouble with this type of exercise. As you have been told when it is someone + I. You say we. The second one is more than one person therefore it is they and third one someone asks you a question and you reply I.
Check out the translator. Make sure you understand what it all means and you will workout the answers. Edit adding your answers and we will correct if necessary.
