El verbo estar= to be Lets name our subject pronouns first ESTAR =TO BEYo: estoy T estsl/ella/usted: estNosotros(as) estamosVosotros(as) estisEllas/ellos/ustedes : estn

Estar is used to indicate temporary states and locations. If the general rule doesnt suffice, think of the acronym PLACE, which stands for Position, Location, Action, Condition, and Emotion.PositionPosition is the physical position or posture a person or thing is in.Mi abuela est sentada. LocationThe location of someone or something describes where it is permanently, temporarily, actually, or conceptually.El bao est a la derecha de la sala. (The bathroom is to the right of the living room.)Mi abuelo est en la luna. (My grandfather is out of it/lost.)Exception for PartiesThis is a big one: The location of an event or party is described using SER. Not ESTAR!La fiesta es en mi casa. (The party is at my house.)

ESTAR...conActionEstar is used to describe an ongoing action using the present progressive tense.Estoy lavando los platos sucios. (I am washing the dirty dishes.)Estamos leyendo los peridicos. (We are reading the newspapers.)Mi bisabuelo est muerto. (My great-grandfather is dead.)Death is Ongoing ActionIn Spanish, death is seen as an ongoing action, not a permanent state, thus you use the verb estar and not ser. ConditionPhysical and mental conditions are described using estar.Estoy tan cansada esta maana. (I am so tired this morning.)Mis nios estn enfermos hoy. (My children are sick today.)Mi madre est un poco loca. (My mother is (acting) a little crazy.)EmotionHow a person is feeling at a certain moment is described using estar.Estoy triste. (I am sad.)Ella est contenta porque recibi unas flores de su novio. (She is happy because she received some flowers from her boyfriend.)

The present progressive is a verb phrase consisting of both estar (the "is" part which indicates the tense) and the present participle (the "-ing" part which indicates what the action is). To form the present progressive, conjugate estar to the present indicative tense and add the present participle form of the verb that the person is actually doing.

Present Progressive Formula:estar +present participle(verb stem + -ando for -ar verbs/-iendo for -er and -ir verbs)

Estoy hablando I am speaking Estamos hablando We are speaking Ests hablando You are speaking Estis hablando You (all) are speaking Est hablando You (formal) are speaking Estn hablando You (all, formal) are He/she is speaking speaking They are speaking

Present Progressive Uses

Single Current ActionsSimply, what a person is doing right now, and action they are currently participating in.Est escribiendoun ensayo para su clase de espaol. (He is writing an essay for his Spanish class.)Estamos cocinandola cena. (We are cooking dinner (right now).)Estn durmiendoen el dormitorio pequeo. (They are sleeping in the small bedroom (right now).)In English and Spanish, this is usually expressed using thepresent progressive, but it is possible to use the present tense in Spanish as well.Quhaces?(What are you doing?)Limpiola cocina.(I'm cleaning the kitchen.)Cmoests?(How are you doing?)Estoybien, gracias.(Im doing well, thank you.)

DIRECT OBJECT NOUNS AND PRONOUNSDirect objects are nouns which receive the action of a verb in a sentence. Direct object pronouns replace that noun (and also noun phrases and nominalized clauses). Just like personal (subject) pronouns replace the subject noun in a sentence, direct object pronouns replace the direct object noun in a sentence which can be a person or a thing.Singular Plural 1st person me (me) nos (us) 2nd person te (you, familiar) os (you, familiar plural)3rd person lo, la (it, him, her, you formal) los, las (them, you, formal plural)

The direct object of a sentence can be an object:- Sandra tir la pelota. - Sandra threw the ball.La pelota receives the action of tir. La pelota is the direct object of the sentence. It is singular and feminine, and since it represents an inanimate object, it is in the 3rd person, therefore, you can replace it with the direct object pronoun la.Sandra la tir. - Sandra threw it.- Los nios leen muchos libros. - The boys read lots of books.Muchos libros receives the action of leen. It is plural, masculine, and 3rd person, so it can be replaced with the direct object pronoun los.Los nios los leen.The direct object of a sentence can also be a person:They called us - Nos llamaron.I love you. - Te quiero.

DIRECT OBJECTS

When the verb is an infinitive construction, such as ir a +(infinitive), the direct object pronoun can be placed before the conjugated form or attached to the infinitive.

Ellos van a escribir unas postales.Ellos las van a escribirEllos van a escribirlas.Give the correct direct object pronoun for each sentence.Tienes el libro de espaol.Lucas ve la pelcula.Quieren estudiar espaol.Voy a ver un partido de ftbolPracticas los verbos irregulares?Chris busca la llave.Now TAKE the QUIZ.CLICK on the linkhttp://www.spanishdict.com/topics/show/15
