Questions & Answers about ¿Vosotros sois estudiantes?
What exactly does vosotros mean and who do I use it with?
Why is the verb sois used here?
If I am asking a group of women, do I still use vosotros?
No, if you are talking to a group made up entirely of women, you must change the pronoun to the feminine form: vosotras. However, if the group is mixed (men and women), you always default to the masculine vosotros.
Why doesn't the word order change to make it a question?
In English, we swap words around to ask a question ("You are" becomes "Are you?"). In Spanish, you can just keep the statement word order (Vosotros sois estudiantes) and simply add the question marks and a questioning tone of voice!
Does the word estudiantes change depending on if it is a group of men or women?
