Questions & Answers about Veo setenta árboles en el parque.
Setenta looks very similar to the word for sixty. How can I tell them apart?
Setenta means seventy (70), and sesenta means sixty (60). A helpful trick is to look at the third letter: seTenta has a 't' like siete (seven), while seSenta has an 's' like seis (six).
Do I need to change setenta to match the masculine word árboles?
Why is there no word for 'I' before veo?
In Spanish, the verb ending usually tells you who is doing the action. Veo specifically means 'I see' (from the verb ver). You can say yo veo, but native speakers almost always drop the yo unless they need to emphasize who is looking.
Why does the plural word árboles have an accent mark on the 'a'?
