Ellas _______ muy altas.
Mi padre ___ gordito porque come muchas galletas.
Javier ___ bajo pero corre muy rápido.
Nosotros ______ muy sociables. Siempre hablamos en la cafetería.
Tú _____ una muchacha delgada, ¡debes comer más!
Remember your nouns and adjectives have to match! Notice in number one, ellas and altas agree, just as
Javier, a boy, is bajo.

Tener
There are some adjectives in Spanish that have to be used with the verb tener or “to have”. Refer back to
your vocabulary list for the adjectives that can only be used with the verb tener.
This is how you conjugate the verb tener. It is extremely irregular, so be careful! It doesn’t follow the
rules we learned for other –er verbs. It is a stem changing verb, meaning in the tú, él, ella, usted, ellos,
ellas, and ustedes forms, the first “e” changes to an “ie”. Look below and you’ll understand!
yo tengo
nosotros tenemos
tú tienes
vosotros tenéis
él
ella
ellos
tiene
usted
