01-021 Present Tense AR verbs; él / ella / usted

In this video lesson, we’ll be continuing on our series of how to change AR verbs into the present tense. So far yo and had their own forms. For él, ella and usted though, it turns out that they all share the same form. Él means ‘he’, ella means ‘she’, and usted is ‘you’. Enjoy!

Feel free to leave questions/comments/suggestions. ¡Gracias!

  1. are these also correct?

    ¿él canta?

    ¿Paulina ayuda en casa?

    ¿él canta?

    ¿él trabaja mucho?

    ¿Isabel escucha música?

  2. It’s very helpful when you build on the present tense forms. I wish you were teaching my college Spanish class. Thank you for doing this!

  3. In this video you used ‘ud’ instead of ‘usted’ for the word you. Does this mean it can be used as ‘ud’ and not have to write ‘usted’? It’s confusing me, please help. Muy, muy gracias.

  4. Just to point out, in the English version of restaurante, a second e is written at the end of the word which is incorrect as the word is restaurant. Just a small pointer. Thank you for the awesome Spanish help!
