How 2 say... in spanish??????????

Question

how do u say "she is 43 years old" in spanish

isn't it Ella es 43 anos?

or how about "I am 16 years old" in spanish?

isn't it "Yo 16 anos"?

PLZ HELP!

Answer 1

She is 43 years old.

Ella tiene 43 anos.

I am 16 years old.

Yo tengo 16 anos.

You need to remember to include the verb "to have."  In English, we always say how old we ARE.

In Spanish, "ARE" changes to the number of years we HAVE.  Different verbs.  Conjugate them according to the person referred to in the sentence.

Answer 2

She is 43 years old in spanish is "Ella tiene 43 años de edad"

I am 16 years old in spanish is "Yo tengo 16 años de edad"

A lot of people wont tell you that you have to insert "de edad" at the end because they don´t know how to speak spanish.

You cannot say in spanish "Ella tiene 43 años" or "Yo tengo 16 años" because you are not saying "old". Old, when you are talking about age is "de edad"

Answer 3

She is 43 years old = Ella tiene 43 años de edad.

I am 16 years old = Tengo 16 años de edad (you can ignore the "Yo")

Answer 4

Ella tiene quarenta y tres anos

Soy dieceseis (sp) anos

Answer 5

ella tiene 43 años, yo tengo 16 años or just tengo 16 años

Answer 6

-Ella tiene 43 (cuarenta y tres) años

-Tengo 16(diesiseis) años

Answer 7

ella tiene 43 años de edad (nobody uses "de edad" for instance cuantos años tiene ella? ella tiene 43 años)

tengo 16 años (by saying tengo you are telling that YOU ARE) no need to use "yo" I never use it and I don't know nobody that uses it.

Answer 8

they are all right.
