What´s Your Name?
UNIT 1
The Personal Pronouns
Los pronombres personales (yo, tú, él…) actúan como sujeto de una oración, es decir, expresan
quién realiza la acción. En principio entenderemos que no se pueden omitir, por lo que cada oración
deberá contar con ese “alguien” que realiza la acción.
I (yo)
You (tú, vos)
He (él)
She (ella)
It (ésto, ésta)
We (nosotros)
You (vosotros, ustedes)
They (ellos)
The Verb To Be
En español, el verbo se traduce como ser y estar. Esto quiere decir que en inglés un mismo verbo
tiene dos significados y será su contexto el que nos permita comprender cuál utilizar. Veámoslo con
el siguiente ejemplo:

The Possessive Adjectives
Los adjetivos posesivos se utilizan para indicar la posesión sobre algo o alguien, por lo que
siempre van seguidos de un sustantivo al cual poseer.
I My
You Your
He His
She Her
It Its
We Our
You Your
They Their
It vs. Its
It es el pronombre personal que refiere a las cosas y a los animales. Cuando necesito describir una
cosa o un animal utilizo su adjetivo posesivo.
● My dog is beautiful. Its hair is grey = Myi perro es hermoso. Su pelo (el de mi perro) es gris.
22 Unit 3
Tú vs. Tu
Es muy común confundir el pronombre personal tú por su posesivo tu. Tú, o vos, hace
referencia a una persona; mientras tu, indica puntualmente pertenencia (tuyo).
The Possessive ‘s
El ‘s es una de las formas de expresar posesión. Se utiliza cuando el poseedor es una
persona, animal, o país. Para formarlo, debemos ubicar primero el sustantivo (o persona
que posee) y luego agregar ‘s.
´S vs. ´S
Ya hemos visto que el verbo to be es contraído con ‘s, de modo que para no confundirlos
debemos tener presente antes del ‘s siempre debe haber un sustantivo (name, car,
girlfriend, etc.).
● My father’s name is George = El nombre de mi papá es Jorge.
● Sarah´s boyfriend is Argentinian = El novio de Sara es argentino.

The Present Simple
El presente simple se utiliza para describir hábitos y rutinas.
● I go to work at 7.00.
Hablar de cosas que son ciertas o permanentes.
● I live in Argentina.
¡Ojo! El presente simple NO se usa para hablar de lo que está pasando ahora.
Para armar oraciones afirmativas colocamos el verbo después de la persona. Con los
pronombres I, You, We y They, la conjugación es la misma.
Para armar oraciones negativas, debemos utilizar el auxiliar del presente (do), en su forma
negativa (do not // don´t).
Positive Negative
I like football I don’t like football
You like football We don’t like football
We like football We don’t like football
They like football They don’t like football
Questions
En la estructura de la pregunta debemos agregar el auxiliar del presente, porque éste

Prepositions of Time and Place
La preposición es una palabra que relaciona los elementos de una oración. Pueden indicar origen,
destino, dirección, lugar, motivo, etc. Su principal función es unir palabras, acciones e ideas que se
relacionan entre sí.
Usamos las preposiciones in, on y at para hablar de tiempo y de lugar.
In
In
Tiempo:
● Momentos del día: In the morning - In the afternoon - In the evening
● Meses: In January
● Años: In 1999
● Estaciones de año: In the summer
Lugar:
● Ciudades y países: In Barcelona - In New Zealand
● Espacios cerrados: In the kitchen - In an office - In a hospital
● Lugares abiertos: In the park - In the street - In the garden
At
At
Tiempo:
● Hora: At 3 o’clock
● Fin de semana: At the weekend
● Noche: At night
Lugar:
● Lugares específicos : At home - At school - At university
Unit 5 45
At or In
Ya que ambas preposiciones significan en en español, pueden llegar a confundir. At se utiliza
para indicar posición en un punto determinado, mientras que in indica posición tridimensional.
Esto quiere decir que cada vez que diga in, estaré físicamente dentro de ese lugar. At, por el
contrario, es abstracto.
● At home = En casa (home es intangible, representa mi hogar).
● In my house = En mi casa (house es tangible, estoy literalmente dentro de ella y
representa la casa construida).
Veamos otro ejemplo:
● In the shopping centre = En el shopping (literalmente adentro).
● At the door = En la puerta (sentido figurativo, imposible que esté dentro de ella).
On
On
Tiempo:
● Días de la semana: On Monday - On Friday evening
● Fechas completas : On June 13th
● Palabras que contengan day o indiquen un día: On holidays - On my day off - On
Valentine´s Day
Lugar:
● Transportes: On a boat - On the train
● Indica que algo está “sobre” otra cosa: On the table - On the wall
IN: ____________________________________________________________

The Present Simple (The 3rd Person)
En la tercera persona del singular, todos los verbos del presente simple se conjugan. Esto se
remonta al año 500 AC, cuando las tribus germánicas invaden Inglaterra y surge el idioma que
en nada se parece con el que hablamos hoy. En ese momento, todos los verbos de todos los
tiempos verbales se conjugaban por persona. La tercera del singular se conjugaba agregando
una s al verbo, y ésta se conserva en la actualidad.
Como ya mencionamos, el presente simple se utiliza para describir hábitos y rutinas, o hablar
de cosas que son permanentes.
Para armar oraciones negativas, debemos utilizar el auxiliar del presente (does), en su forma
negativa (does not // doesn´t).
Possitive Negative
He likes football She doesn’t like football
She likes football He doesn’t like football
It likes football It doesn’t like football
Questions
En la estructura de la pregunta debemos agregar el auxiliar del presente, porque éste indica el
tiempo verbal.
Unit 6 51
● Where does she work?
● Who does he live with?
● When does he study English?
Por último, si bien todos los verbos deben contener la letra s, hay reglas que indicarán
cómo hacerlo.
52 Unit 6
Unit 6 53
54 Unit 6
Adverbs of Frequency
Adverbs of Frequency
Así como los adjetivos describen sustantivos, los adverbios describen verbos. Los
adverbios de frecuencia especifican cuán a menudo realizamos una acción.
Según la regla general, los adverbios de frecuencia se colocan delante del verbo.
Never
● I never watch movies = Nunca miro películas. No! I don´t never watch movies.
● She never plays sports = Nunca practica deportes. No! She doesn´t never play
sports.
Unit 6 55
Time Expressions
Cuando queremos ser aún más específicos, utilizamos otros adverbios que hacen
referencia al número exacto de veces que realizamos la acción.
Once A day
Twice A week
Three times A month
(A partir de tres, usamos el A year
Nº + times)
How often…?
Para preguntar con qué frecuencia… ? se utiliza How often.
● How often do you ride your bike?
I ride my bike twice a week.
I sometimes ride my bike.
Complete the sentences with a suitable verb and add the adverb of frequency in the
correct place.

UNIT 7 I Just Love It
Los Object Pronouns son pronombres que ocupan en la oración el lugar de un objeto. Es
decir, son aquellos que se ven afectados por la acción, en quienes recae la acción.
La mejor forma de comprender la diferencia entre los pronombres personales y los objeto
es identificando quién hace la acción y en quién recae.
