Questions & Answers about Estoy en la reunión contigo.
Why is it contigo instead of con tú?
Why do we use estoy here instead of soy?
We use estoy (from the verb estar) because the sentence is talking about your physical location. A great rule of thumb to remember is that for locations, like being in a meeting, at home, or in a city, you always use estar, not ser.
Does the word en mean "in" or "at" here?
It means both! In Spanish, the preposition en is very versatile and covers both "in" and "at" (and sometimes "on"). So whether you would say "I am in the meeting" or "I am at the meeting" in English, Spanish just uses en la reunión.
How do I know that reunión uses la instead of el?
A very helpful trick in Spanish is that almost all nouns ending in -ión (like reunión, televisión, or canción) are feminine. Because it is a feminine word, it takes the feminine word for "the", which is la.
