Question

select the correct answer
which verb phrase correctly completes this sentence?
el partido ______ por nuestro equipo.
a. fue ganado
b. fue ganados
c. fue ganada
d. fue ganadas

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the subject and verb agreement in Spanish. The subject "El partido" (the match) is singular, masculine. The past participle "ganado" (won) must agree in gender and number with the subject. "Ganado" is the masculine singular past participle. Option A "fue ganado" is correct as "fue" is the singular past tense of "ser" (to be) and "ganado" agrees with "partido" (singular, masculine). Option B has "ganados" (plural, masculine), C has "ganada" (feminine, singular), and D has "ganadas" (feminine, plural), all of which don't agree with "partido".

Answer:

A. fue ganado
