Questions & Answers about Ellas estudian alemán en la mañana.

Why does the verb end in -an (estudian)?
Estudiar (to study) is a regular -ar verb. To make it match the subject ellas (they), you drop the -ar ending and add -an.
Why is "they" translated as ellas instead of ellos?
Ellas specifically means "they" for a group made up entirely of females. If the group had even one male in it, or was all males, you would use ellos.
Why is alemán not capitalized? We capitalize languages in English.
In Spanish, names of languages (like alemán, inglés, or español) are always written in lowercase unless they appear at the very beginning of a sentence.
Why is there an accent mark on alemán?
The accent mark tells you to put the spoken stress on the last syllable (a-le-MÁN). Without it, the natural rules of Spanish pronunciation would make you stress the middle syllable.
Can I say por la mañana instead of en la mañana?
Yes! Both en la mañana and por la mañana mean "in the morning". En la mañana is especially common in Latin America, but both are perfectly correct.
