Your Spanish Lesson 3
Learn Spanish Online with
these basic Spanish lessons
In this third Spanish lesson we are going
to go over the different short questions that you can use multiple times
in every-day life. Questions like Why? Where? When? can come in very
handy, specially at the beginning, when your vocabulary is still
limited. Additionally we will add a mini lesson on "there is" - the use
of the verb 'hay' in the Spanish language.
Spanish lesson in short
questions:
¿Dónde? (where) ¿Dónde está el
enfermo? / Where is the patient?
¿Qué? (what) ¿Qué día es hoy? / What day is today?
¿Quién? (who) ¿Quién es su médico? / Who is your doctor?
¿Por qué? (why) ¿Por qué está usted aquí? / Why are you here?
¿Cuándo? (when) ¿Cuándo visitas a un médico? / When do you visit a
doctor?
¿Cómo? (how) ¿Cómo llegó al hospital? / How did you get to the
hospital?
¿Cuánto? (how) ¿Cuántos años tiene? / How old are you?
The use of the word 'hay':
"Hay" means "There is" or
"There are" in English!
Hay un buen hospital en esta ciudad. / There is a good hospital in this
city.
You could also use the same
sentence as a question, just changing the tonality of the way you say
it:
¿Hay un buen hospital en esta ciudad? / Is there is a good hospital
in this city?.
¿Cuántas casas hay? / How many houses are there?
Hay cinco casas. / There are five houses.
¿Hay casas rojas? / Are there red houses?
Sí, si hay casas rojas. / Yes, there are red houses.
No, no hay casas rojas. / No, there are no red
houses.
