Question

9 select the correct answer which verb form correctly completes this conversation? fernando: debemos crear nuevas canciones en el próximo concierto. isabella: sí, _____ escribiendo nuevas canciones. a. estar b. está c. estoy d. están

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the context and verb conjugation. The sentence structure is "estoy + gerund" (present progressive in Spanish for "I am..."). The subject here is "yo" (implied, as Isabella is speaking about herself), so the correct conjugation of "estar" for "yo" is "estoy". Let's check the options:

• Option A: "estar" is the infinitive, not a conjugated form for a subject, so incorrect.
• Option B: "está" is the third - person singular conjugation (él/ella/usted está), but the subject here is first - person (I), so incorrect.
• Option C: "estoy" is the first - person singular conjugation of "estar" (yo estoy), which fits the context of Isabella saying "I am writing new songs", so correct.
• Option D: "están" is the third - person plural conjugation (ellos/ellas/ustedes están), which doesn't match the first - person subject, so incorrect.

Answer:

C. estoy
