What does Fernando Botero do? He's an artist.

Class 3 & 4: Verb TO BE and possessive adjectives

Hi,

When we are talking about people, we can talk about them or we can talk about things that belong to them. For the first case, we use the subject pronouns:

 

  1.  Liliana is my best friends. She is an electronics engineer.
  2. Pablo and I are cousins. We have a lot of fun on vacation.
  3. Camilo is my dentist. He is from Cali.

 For talking about people's possessions or belongings, we use the possessive adjectives. Analyze the following examples:

 

         I like pets. My pet is a dog.

  •  You study English. Your English teacher is Claudia.
  • Nancy is from Colombia. Her nationality is Colombian.
  • Juan is my brother. His middle name is Felipe.
  • My pet is a dog. Its name is Krusty.
  • Daniel and I have a car. Our car is blue.
  • Nicolás and David have a sister. Their sister is Laura.
