Lección de repaso - Los pronombres
Learning a new language can be a challenging and time-consuming process, but with the right tools and techniques, it is possible to achieve fluency and speak like a native. One powerful tool that can help language learners to make rapid progress is repetition.
Repetition
Repetition is the act of repeating something, whether it be a word, phrase, lesson, or concept in order to reinforce it in the mind. When it comes to language learning, repetition can be a highly effective way to improve pronunciation, build vocabulary, and increase fluency.
Los pronombres personales
Subject Pronouns in Spanish, or los pronombres personales, are the words we use to identify the subject of a verb when not using a specific noun. A subject pronoun can replace any type of noun, whether a person, place, or thing.
These pronouns (also referred to as “personal pronouns”) tell us who or what is performing the action of a verb, without needing to repeat a previously mentioned noun.
Let’s see a simple example of pronouns in action:
- Claudia and Miguel go to school together. They are friends.
- Claudia y Miguel van a la escuela juntos. Ellos son amigos.
In this example, the subjects Claudia and Miguel were replaced by the subject pronoun ellos (they).
