Questions & Answers about Comprendo cada pronombre en la lección.

Why is comprendo used instead of entiendo?
Both verbs translate as “to understand,” but they carry slightly different nuances. Entender is often used for immediate or basic understanding (“I get it”), while comprender can imply a deeper or more complete grasp of a concept. In most contexts they’re interchangeable, so entiendo cada pronombre en la lección is also correct, though comprender sounds a bit more formal or thorough.
Who is the subject in this sentence, and why isn’t yo included?
The subject is yo (I), but Spanish usually drops subject pronouns because the verb ending “-o” already tells you it’s first person singular. Including yo (Yo comprendo…) is grammatically correct but often unnecessary unless you want extra emphasis.
Why do we use cada before pronombre, and why is pronombre singular?
Cada means “each” or “every” and always modifies a singular noun. It highlights individual items in a group one by one. That’s why you say cada pronombre (each pronoun) instead of a plural form.
What’s the difference between cada pronombre and todos los pronombres?
  • Cada pronombre = “each pronoun” (focus on individual items)
  • Todos los pronombres = “all the pronouns” (the group as a whole)
    Use cada for one-by-one emphasis, todos when talking about the entire set at once.
Why is pronombre masculine? Are there any rules?
Though many Spanish nouns ending in -e can be either gender, pronombre is one of the exceptions that’s always masculine: el pronombre, los pronombres. Unfortunately you often have to memorize these exceptions.
Why does lección carry an accent on the “ó”?
Spanish spelling rules say that if a word is stressed on the last syllable (an aguda) and ends in a consonant other than n or s, it needs an accent mark. Lección is stressed on the final syllable and ends in n, so it must have ó.
Why is the preposition en used before la lección? Could we say de la lección?
  • En la lección = “in the lesson,” indicating location or context where you understand each pronoun.
  • De la lección = “of the lesson,” which would more likely describe possession or origin (e.g., “the pronunciation of the lesson”).
    Here, en is the natural choice to express “within this lesson.”
Could I say los comprendo instead of comprendo cada pronombre?
Yes, los comprendo (“I understand them”) uses the direct object pronoun los to refer back to Pronombres. But that expresses you understand the pronouns as a group. To emphasize “each individual pronoun,” you need cada pronombre.
Can I replace comprendo with entiendo here? Any subtle differences?
Absolutely. Entiendo cada pronombre en la lección is perfectly natural. The choice is stylistic: entender is more common in everyday speech, while comprender can sound slightly more formal or academic.
