Questions & Answers about Entonces bebemos té.

The lesson is about joining words like y (and) and pero (but). Is entonces used like those here?

Yes! While entonces usually translates to "then," it is very often used to link ideas, meaning "so" or "in that case." Just like a conjunction, it connects a previous thought to what happens next. For example, if someone says there is no coffee left, you can reply, "Entonces bebemos té" (Then/So we drink tea).

Why does té have an accent mark on the e?

In Spanish, some short words use an accent mark simply to tell them apart from another word with the exact same spelling. Té with an accent means the drink "tea". Te without an accent is a pronoun that means "you" or "to you" (like when you say te quiero).

I see "we drink" in the English translation, but where is the Spanish word for "we"?

In Spanish, the ending of the verb tells you who is doing the action. The verb beber (to drink) changes to bebemos for "we" (nosotros). Because bebemos already means "we drink," you don't usually need to include the word nosotros.
