IMPORTANT POINTS FOR GRAMMAR

• IF YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT ONE PERSON, USE THE _________ ENDING: __________ o EX: JESSE _________ ESPANOL BECAUSE IT IS THE SAME AS EL HABLA ESPANOL = HE SPEAKS SPANISH

• IF YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT 2 OR MORE PEOPLE, USE THE _________ ENDING: _______ o EX: JORDAN Y DIAMOND _________ ESPANOL (SAME AS ELLAS HABLAN ESPANOL = THEY SPEAK SPANISH)

• BECAUSE EACH __________________________ HAS ITS OWN SPECIAL ENDING, YOU CAN LEAVE THEM OUT AND THE SENTENCE WILL STILL MAKE PERFECT SENSE IN SPANISH. o EX: HABLO ESPANOL = _____________________ EX: PRACTICAMOS EL FUTBOL = ___________________
