Question

imagine that you are speaking on the telephone. fill in the blank with the spanish word that best completes the following question.
¿ ____ hablar con arturo?
puedo
estoy
son
hablo

Explanation:

In Spanish, when making a polite request to speak with someone on the phone, we use "Puedo" (from "poder" meaning "to be able to/can"). "Estoy" is from "estar" (to be, used for temporary states) and doesn't fit here. "Son" is a form of "ser" (to be, for permanent or characteristic traits) and is incorrect. "Hablo" is "I speak" and doesn't fit the context of asking to speak with someone. So "Puedo" is the correct choice.

Answer:

A. Puedo
