Question

question 2 of 10
fill in the blank in the following sentence with the appropriate verb below.
yo ______ muy cansada hoy.

a. tengo
b. estoy
c. hablo
d. soy

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze Spanish verb usage. The sentence expresses a temporary state (being tired today), so we use the verb "estar" (for temporary states) in the first - person singular present tense. The first - person singular of "estar" is "estoy". Let's analyze the options:

• Option A: "tengo" is the first - person singular of "tener" (to have), which doesn't fit the context of expressing a state of being tired.
• Option B: "estoy" is the correct form of "estar" for the first - person singular, used for temporary states like being tired.
• Option C: "hablo" is the first - person singular of "hablar" (to speak), which is irrelevant here.
• Option D: "soy" is the first - person singular of "ser" (to be), but "ser" is used for permanent or inherent characteristics, not temporary states like being tired today.

Answer:

B. estoy
