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 AffirmativeNegativeQuestion
II amI am not / I'm notAm I...?
You / We / TheyYou areYou are not / aren'tAre you/we/they...?
He / She / ItShe isShe is not / isn'tIs 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.

Would you like me to provide a few more practice sentences to test your knowledge?
