Questions & Answers about Regreso al país.
If someone asked me where I am returning to, which word for 'where' would they use?
Why is it al país instead of a el país?
In Spanish, whenever the preposition a (to) comes right before the masculine word el (the), they squeeze together to form the contraction al. This is a mandatory rule, so you must always say al país.
Why isn't the word yo (I) at the beginning of the sentence?
Why does país have an accent mark?
The accent mark tells you to emphasize that vowel and breaks the a and i into two separate syllables: pah-EES. Without the accent mark, those vowels would blend together into a single syllable.
