Practice for Quiz – Subject pronouns, and the verb “Ser”
I. For each of the following, write the corresponding subject pronoun in Spanish.
---
1. Mike y ella: → Ellos
*Explanation:* “Mike y ella” = Mike and she → two people, one male (Mike), one female (ella) → mixed gender group → use ellos (they, masculine plural).
2. Audrey y Sally: → Ellas
*Explanation:* Both are female names → feminine plural → ellas (they, feminine plural).
3. Mía y yo (Lily): → Nosotras
*Explanation:* “Mía y yo” = Mía and I → both female (assuming Lily is female) → feminine first-person plural → nosotras (we, feminine).
4. Usted y yo: → Nosotros
*Explanation:* “Usted y yo” = you (formal) and I → formal + informal → in most contexts, this is treated as mixed or masculine default → nosotros (we, masculine). Note: In Spain, sometimes “nosotras” if both are female, but generally “nosotros” is used unless specified.
5. You, Sr. Cruz: → Usted
*Explanation:* “You, Mr. Cruz” — addressing someone formally → use usted (you, formal singular).
6. Tú, tú y tú: → Vosotros *(in Spain)* or Ustedes *(in Latin America)*
*Explanation:* Three “tú”s = three people you’re addressing informally → in Spain: vosotros (you all, informal plural); in Latin America: ustedes (you all, formal/informal plural). Since the worksheet doesn’t specify region, ustedes is more universally accepted. But since it says “tú, tú y tú,” implying informal, and many textbooks teach vosotros, we’ll go with vosotros — *but note that in most of Latin America, they use ustedes*.
✔ Answer: Vosotros *(if using Spain variant)* — or Ustedes *(if using Latin American variant)*.
➤ *For standard classroom use, especially if not specified, “ustedes” is safer.*
Final Answer: Ustedes *(recommended for general use)*
7. Los estudiantes: → Ellos
*Explanation:* “Los estudiantes” = the students → masculine plural noun → subject pronoun = ellos (they, masculine plural).
8. La clase y yo (Sr.): → Nosotros
*Explanation:* “La clase y yo” = the class and I → class is treated as a group, and “yo” is first person → combined, it’s “we.” Since “Sr.” implies male speaker, use nosotros (we, masculine).
9. Jaime y tú (Spain): → Vosotros
*Explanation:* “Jaime y tú” = Jaime and you → informal address → in Spain, this becomes vosotros (you all, informal plural).
10. La clase y usted: → Ustedes
*Explanation:* “La clase y usted” = the class and you (formal) → group + formal you → ustedes (you all, plural formal/informal).
11. Tú (Miguel) y ella: → Vosotros *(Spain)* or Ustedes *(Latin America)*
*Explanation:* You (informal, Miguel) and she → informal plural → in Spain: vosotros; elsewhere: ustedes. Again, since it specifies “tú,” likely Spain context.
✔ Answer: Vosotros *(for Spain)* — or Ustedes *(general)*.
➤ *Recommended: Vosotros* (since “tú” is used)
12. Las estudiantes: → Ellas
*Explanation:* “Las estudiantes” = the female students → feminine plural → ellas (they, feminine plural).
13. El hombre: → Él
*Explanation:* “The man” → singular male → él (he).
14. La amiga: → Ella
*Explanation:* “The female friend” → singular female → ella (she).
15. You, my friend: → Tú
*Explanation:* Informal “you” → tú (you, informal singular).
16. You, my principal: → Usted
*Explanation:* Addressing a principal → formal situation → usted (you, formal singular).
17. El chico: → Él
*Explanation:* “The boy” → singular male → él (he).
18. Mrs. Valdivia: → Ella
*Explanation:* Mrs. = female → ella (she).
19. Y’all familiar in Spain: → Vosotros
*Explanation:* “Y’all” = you all → “familiar” = informal → in Spain, informal plural “you” = vosotros.
20. You, my brother: → Tú
*Explanation:* Addressing your brother → informal relationship → tú (you, informal singular).

📌 Note on Regional Variations:
- In Spain, vosotros/vosotras is used for informal plural “you.”
- In Latin America, ustedes is used for ALL plural “you” (both formal and informal).
- Most modern textbooks outside Spain use ustedes exclusively.
- Since the worksheet mentions “(Spain)” in #9 and #19, it’s likely designed for a Spain-focused curriculum, so vosotros is appropriate there.
