by Juan Andres Franco Piedrahita

1️⃣ Activación de conocimientos previos

En español decimos:


Tengo 30 años


En inglés, esta estructura NO se traduce literalmente.


Español ======== Traducción literal ===== Inglés correcto

Tengo 30 años === I have 30 years ❌===== I’m 30


📌 Conclusión:

El inglés conceptualiza la edad como un estado (to be), no como una posesión.

📍 Estructura base


Subject + TO BE + age (+ years old)


✔ I’m thirty

✔ I’m thirty years old
