Answer 1

Hola!

#1 El plomero= the plumber which could be substituted as "he" --> él- which goes with es in verb ser. Therefore #1 is incorrect.

#2 La tía= the aunt which can be substituted as "she"--> ella- which corresponds with es in verb ser conjugation. Therefore #2 is incorrect.

#3 Correct! El bombero= the firefighter- which could be substituted as "he" --> él- which goes with es in verb ser.

#4 Incorrect- Yo= I - which always travels with soy in the verb Ser.

Best of luck! Buena suerte.

Answer 2

So, to help you answer this question, the verb "Ser" is irregular. Unlike regular verbs that end in "er", this one is broken down a little differently.

 

Yo soy

Tú eres

Él/Ella es

Nosotros(as) somos

Ellos(as) son

 

For number one, "el plomero" does not refer to you, me, us, or them. It's singular, referring to him = He is kind. You can use this process of elimination for "la tía" and "el bombero" too.

 

Somos and son are plural, so if you see that the subject is singular, you know that the verb needs to change to be singular as well. This is the same for a plural subject- the verb must change to be plural.

 

It's similar to saying something like, "We is students" rather than "We are students". If anything about the above sentences needs to be changed, then you know it is the wrong answer for this particular question.
