Here is the completed text with the correct forms of the verb to be: Are you from Spain? No, I am not (or I'm not). I am from Portugal. Is Leyla from Turkey? Yes, she is. Are they 15 years old? Yes, they are. Grammar Explanation To help you understand why these forms were used, here is a quick breakdown of the verb to be in the present simple tense:
| Subject | Affirmative | Negative | Question |
|---|---|---|---|
| I | I am | I am not / I'm not | Am I...? |
| You / We / They | You are | You are not / aren't | Are you/we/they...? |
| He / She / It | She is | She is not / isn't | Is he/she/it...? |
- First Sentence: We use Are because the subject is "you." In the negative response, am not is required for the subject "I."
- Second Sentence: We use Is because "Leyla" is a third-person singular subject (she).
- Third Sentence: We use Are because the subject "they" is plural.
