    NOUNS TO PRONOUNS REMINDER!

    • Pronouns REPLACE Nouns - here is a refresher on how to do that.

    • Nouns are PEOPLE/PLACES/THINGS (when conjugating verbs you will most likely see NAMES of people and you will need to replace them with the correct pronoun)

    • If you see ONE NAME (male, female, or neutral) use the "el/ella" form

    • If you see TWO OR MORE NAMES use the "ellos/ellas" form

    • If you see a NAME (or more) and the pronoun YO use the "nosotros" form

    • If you see a NAME (or more) and the pronoun TÚ or USTED use the "ustedes" form
