Answer 7

►#1  He = él ; she = ella ; << it >> doesn't exist in Spanish. Examples:

Él es profesor. = He's a teacher.

Ella es doctora. = She's a doctor.

Es una naranja. = It's an orange.

In Spanish you don't have to mention the subject all the time. Most of the time verbal conjugations are enough to tell who is the subject:

Es doctora. = She's a doctor.

Es actor. = He's an actor.

Soy de Argentina. = I'm from Argentina.

As "it" doesn't exist in Spanish, all you have to do is using the third person singular:

Es una manzana. = It's an apple.

►#2  Deber = must. Use the second person singular (tú debes = you must) if the treatment is informal, the third person singular (usted debe = you must) if the treatment is formal, and the second person plural (ustedes deben = you guys must) for both formal and informal:

Debes ejercitarte regularmente para seguir estando en forma. = You must exercise regularly to keep fit.

►#3  You're talking about the definite article in Spanish. English definite article is "the"; Spanish definite articles are <<el>> for singular masculine, <<la>> for singular feminine, <<los>> for plural masculine and <<las>> for plural feminine. These examples should explain it all:

libro = book; casa = house

El libro azul = The blue book

La casa grande = The big house

Los libros azules = The blue books

Las casas grandes = The big houses

►#4  English "my" is translated <<mi>> for singular and <<mis>> for plural:

Mi hermano= mon frère

Mi hermana= ma soeur

Mis hermanos= mes frères

Mis hermanas= mes soeurs
