Exercise 3
Step 1
1 of 5
The objective of this exercise is to practice writing.

You should write complete sentences to three questions.

The sentences should be simple.

**Tip:** Pay attention to the verbs that are used in the question. To write your answers, use the first-person form of those verbs and change the pronouns if needed.

Step 2
2 of 5
1. Do your legs hurt when you walk a lot?

– Sí, me duelen las piernas cuando camino mucho.
(Yes, my legs hurt when I walk a lot.)

Note how we used the first-person forms in our answer. The verb *caminar (to walk)* changed to *”camino.”*

You may be wondering why the verb *doler (to hurt)* isn’t changed. This is because *doler* is a reflexive verb.
In our sentence, the subject is in the plural (las piernas), so we used the plural form of *doler*, which is *”duelen.”*
When the subject is in the singular (e.g. la cabeza), we use the singular form, which is *”duele”* (e.g. Me duele la cabeza.)

We also changed the pronoun *”te”* to *”me”* because we are giving our *personal* answer.

Step 3
3 of 5
2. Do you rest a lot when you are sick?

– Sí, descanso mucho cuando estoy enfermo(a).
(Yes, I rest a lot when I am sick.)

Note how the verbs *descansar (to rest)* and *estar (to be)* are in the first person. Our results are *”descanso”* and *”estoy.”*

Step 4
4 of 5
3. When you swim, do you use more the legs or the arms?

– Cuando nado, uso más los brazos.
(When I swim, I use more arms.)

Again, we changed the verbs *nadar (to swim)* and *usar (to use)* and got *”nado”* and *”uso.”*
