Spanish subject pronouns worksheet for learning how to address different people in Spanish.

Let's solve this step-by-step. The task is to determine the correct Spanish second-person subject pronoun ("you") to use when addressing each group or person listed.

In Spanish, there are several forms of "you" depending on formality, number, and gender:

- Tú – informal singular (used with friends, family, children)
- Usted – formal singular (used with elders, strangers, professionals)
- Vosotros/vosotras – informal plural (used in Spain; *vosotros* for males/mixed, *vosotras* for females only)
- Ustedes – formal plural OR informal plural in Latin America (used everywhere for plural "you", regardless of formality)

Let’s go through each one:

1. dos policías
→ Two police officers (plural). In most Spanish-speaking countries, ustedes is used for plural "you", even informally.
✔ Ustedes

2. catorce chicas y un chico
→ Fourteen girls and one boy = 15 people (mixed group). Plural → Ustedes
✔ Ustedes

3. Carlos y Ana,
→ Two people: Carlos (male) and Ana (female). They’re two individuals — a mixed pair. Still plural → Ustedes
✔ Ustedes

4. tres muchachas
→ Three girls (feminine plural). Informal plural in Spain would be *vosotras*, but since "vosotras" is not widely used outside Spain, and the context likely assumes general usage (including Latin America), we use ustedes.
✔ Ustedes

5. Lorenzo,
→ One male person. We don’t know if it’s familiar or formal. But unless specified as a close friend, we assume respectful address → Usted
✔ Usted

6. catorce chicas y un chico
→ Same as #2. 15 people, mixed group → Ustedes
✔ Ustedes

7. diez estudiantes en España
→ Ten students in Spain. Since they're in Spain, the informal plural form vosotros is appropriate for a group of students (assuming informal setting).
✔ Vosotros

8. tu doctor
→ Your doctor (a professional). You’d address them formally → Usted
✔ Usted

9. Sr. Arnaldo,
→ Mr. Arnaldo (a man, formal title). Clearly formal → Usted
✔ Usted

10. una profesor de inglés
→ A male English teacher (note: "profesor" is masculine). Teachers are usually addressed formally → Usted
✔ Usted

11. el conductor de autobús
→ The bus driver (male). A professional → Usted
✔ Usted

12. una niña (girl) de tres años
→ A 3-year-old girl. Children are addressed informally → Tú
✔ Tú

13. Víctor y tú,
→ Víctor and you (the speaker). This is a group including the listener. It's two people, so plural → Ustedes
✔ Ustedes

14. Dr. y Sra. Gómez,
→ Dr. and Mrs. Gómez (a couple). Formal titles → Ustedes
✔ Ustedes

15. el conductor de un autobús
→ The bus driver (same as #11). Professional → Usted
✔ Usted

16. tu mamá
→ Your mom. Family member → informal → Tú
✔ Tú

17. una profesora de inglés
→ A female English teacher. Still a professional → Usted
✔ Usted
