Questions & Answers about El supervisor exige seguimiento.

Why is it el supervisor and not just supervisor?

In Spanish, singular countable nouns usually need an article or another determiner when they are the subject of a sentence.

So Spanish normally says:

Why is the verb exige?

Exige is the third-person singular present tense form of exigir.

The subject is el supervisor, which is he / she / it grammatically, so the verb must match:

• yo exijo = I demand / require
• tú exiges = you demand / require
• él / ella / usted exige = he / she / you demand / requires

So:

• El supervisor exige... = The supervisor demands / requires...
