Subject pronouns in Spanish

This image of www.spanish411.net couldn't be more complete!

As in English, in Spanish we make differences between singular and plural, but we also do differentiate between genders. EVERY noun in Spanish has a gender expressed by an article, which can be feminine (la/las/una/unas) or masculine (el/los/un/uno/unos). Adjectives do not have gender by themselves (they don’t have any article accompanying them) but when applied (as you will see below) they have a masculine or feminine form. There are rules to differentiate the gender of words by their termination (the main one is: words ending in¨o¨ are masculine and words ending in ¨a¨ are feminine) so don’t worry, you won’t have to learn every word with its article! only some exceptions and words without this kind of rules.

By now, let’s just look at the subject pronouns. When referring to ¨I¨ or ¨you¨ (the singular form), the equivalents used in Spanish (yo and tú) don’t differentiate between genders. So you can say ¨tú eres guapo/tú eres guapa¨ (you are handsome) to a boy/girl without changing the structure of the pronoun, but here you do see how the adjective handsome has two forms depending on the gender it is referring to (now, you can differentiate the gender of this word by the rule I told you just above! :p). NOTE: not all adjectives have two forms, we will see this in the future. Just to give you an example: agradable (nice) or genial (great) don’t change their structure depending on the gender, only change by number (singular/plural).

¨yo¨ (English I) and ¨tú¨ (singular you) are the two only subjects that do not make differences between genders. Usted and ustedes, the two formal ways of referring to an old/unknown person, or group of them, do not make any differences either.

For the rest of subject pronouns, it is as follows (I need you to look at the image now):

- For a man or group of men: you use the forms of the subject with the blue figure at its left side: masculine forms.

- For a woman or group of women: you do the same, using the forms next to the pink figure: feminine forms.

-For mixed groups (thus this only applies to plural): you always use the masculine form. In the image, mixed groups are represented by both a apink and blue symbol together.

Just to complete the image, the equivalent to ¨it¨ would be ¨eso/esa¨ and it is also a third person, just as él/ella. The plural form of these two words is esos/esas.

To end this post, two notes: 

- In Spanish we don’t write any subject pronoun in capital letters (unless it is at the beginning of the phrase),

- and we do usually omit personal pronouns, but they are still needed when you want to clarify the gender of the person/people you are talking about or when you want to emphasize it

Just comment if something is not clear :)

psst

Is anyone on here a) a native Spanish speaker who wouldn’t mind chatting to me on messenger or b) learning Spanish and would like to practise with me? I’ll help anyone with their English or even French in return, if they’d like. I just feel that I’ve got pretty rusty with my Spanish lately and I’d like to practise talking to someone, either a native speaker or another learner. So if anyone wouldn’t mind helping me or is interested in doing an online language exchange of some kind, let me know :) Hmu if you’re interested! // ¡Hola! Busco a algún hispanohablante u otro estudiante de español con que pueda chatear en español por tumblr y mejorar mis conocimientos de la lengua, ¿hay alguien que me ayudaría con eso? Estudio el español y me gustaría practicar con alguien o hacer una forma de intercambio de idiomas en línea. Podría ayudarte con el inglés o francés en agradecimiento si te gustaría. ¿Algún hispanohablante o estudiante quiere practicar conmigo? ¿Te interesa? Envíame un mensaje :)
