Question

Mi madre no __________ en el garaje. ( 2 points) Question 3 options: 1) estamos 2) está 3) están 4) estáis

Answer 1

The correct answer is “mi madre no está en el garaje.” estamos means WE are CURRENTLY. están means THEY are. estáis is not used unless you are in spain.

Answer 2

Notice that the subject - madre - is singular. This means the verb will also be singular. Let's take a look at our options.

Estamos - "we are"
Example: Estamos ocupados. "We are busy."

Está - "is" or "this"
Example 1: Esta mujer. "This woman."
Example 2: Ella esta aquí. "She is here."

Están - "they are"
Example: Están en la escuela. "They are at school."

From all of this, you can see that the only option that makes sense here is está - Mi madre no está en el garaje. "My mother is not in the garage."

I hope this helps you!
