A short riddle about the present of 'to be'

by Maria Angelica Centeno Chaparro
1

I am the tiny word that shows existence with 'I' and I change with the subject to help form statements about being in the present.

Pistas

With I, the correct form is 'I am'.

There are different forms for other subjects (is, are).

Used with the pronoun I in present tense.

2

Se usa para hablar de identidad, origen y estados. En inglés se conjuga según el sujeto: I am, you are, he is, we are, they are. ¿Qué verbo es?

Pistas

En español puede traducirse como 'ser' o 'estar', dependiendo del contexto.

Sus formas para sujeto singular/plural son distintas: am/are/is, y en tercera persona 'is'.

Es un verbo fundamental para hablar de existencia y características.

3

No soy un sustantivo. En inglés, cuando hablas de una sola tercera persona o de algo que ya está, me combino con el sujeto para formar el presente. Me ves cuando preguntas o afirmas sobre alguien o algo. ¿Qué formo?

Pistas

Con otros sujetos, hay otra forma equivalente en presente simple.

Es la forma que cambia cuando el sujeto es singular de tercera persona.

Puedo usarse con he, she o it en presente simple.

4

I am a tiny word used with I to describe myself. I’m two letters long and start with a vowel. What word am I?

Pistas

Two letters; think about the form that starts with 'a' and rhymes with 'ham' minus the 'h'.

It is the short form used before I, as in 'I ___ happy.'

I go with the subject I in present simple statements.

5

1.He ____ a good student. a) am b) is c) are

Pistas

i

6

1.He ____ a good student.

Pistas

a) am b) is c) are
