Here are some:

-California (from the name of a fictional island country in Las sergas de Esplandián, a popular Spanish chivalric romance by Garci Rodríguez de Montalvo)

-Colorado (meaning "Red [colored]" or "Ruddy". Named after the Colorado River, whose waters were of that color.)

-Florida Meaning ""Flowery" or "Florid", because it was discovered by Ponce de León on Easter Sunday, called Pascua Florida to distinguish this holiday, which occurs in springtime when flowers are abundant, from other Christian holidays called Pascua in Spanish, such as Christmas and Epiphany.

-Montana from Latinized Spanish meaning "mountainous", also in Spanish "montaña" is the name of "mountain"
Nevada comes from the Spanish Sierra Nevada (which is also a mountain range in Spain), meaning snow-covered mountain range ("Nevada" is the Spanish feminine form of "covered in snow").

-New Mexico (Calqued from Nuevo México)

-Texas (based on the Caddo word teshas, meaning "friends" or "allies", which was applied by the Spanish to the Caddo themselves and to the region of their settlement in East Texas). The letter x had a "sh" sound in 16th-century Spanish which gradually evolved to an "h" sound, which under later spelling reforms was assigned to the letter j (which originally also had a "zh", "j" or "y" sound). Thus the modern Spanish spelling Tejas, which sounds like "Tehas".

-Utah (Spanish word of Nahuatl origin, first used by friar Gerónimo Salmerón as Yuta or Uta in Spanish[1])

Hope it helps:)

<h2>Answers:</h2><h2 /><h2>a.  Subject Pronouns</h2>

Subject Pronouns or Personal pronouns in Spanish (similar to English) are used to refer to people, animals or objects and express different grammatical categories. In addition they are useful to distinguish the grammatical number and grammatical gender in a sentence:

1st person singular I: Yo

2nd person singular You: Tú (informal)/ Usted (formal)  

3rd person singular He/She/It: El/Ella/eso/esa

1st person plural We: Nosotros

2nd person plural You: Ustedes (In latinAmerica) / Vosotros (In Spain)

3rd person plural They: Ellos/Ellas

According to this, let's begin with the answers:

1. mi hermano y yo (my brother and I) refers to the <u>1st person in plural masculine</u>, hence the corresponding subject pronoun is:

<h2>Nosotros</h2>

2. tu amigo y tú (Your friend and you) refers to the <u>2nd person in plural masculine</u>, hence the corresponding subject pronoun is:

<h2>Ustedes</h2><h2 />

3. el profesor (the teacher) refers to the <u>3rd person in singular masculine</u>, hence the corresponding subject pronoun is:

<h2>Él</h2><h2></h2>

4. mis compañeros de clase (my classmates) refers to the <u>3rd person in plural masculine</u>, hence the corresponding subject pronoun is:

<h2>Ellos</h2><h2 />

5. unos chicos y unas chicas (some guys and some girls) refers to the <u>3rd person in plural masculine </u>, hence the corresponding subject pronoun is:

<h2>Ellos</h2>

<h2>b. Verb <u>ser</u> according to the subject</h2>

The spanish verb ser (to be) is conjugated as follows:

1st person singular Yo: soy

2nd person singular (informal) Tú: eres

2nd person singular (formal) Usted: es

3rd person singular Él/Ella/eso/esa: es

1st person plural Nosotros: somos

2nd person plural Ustedes (In latinAmerica): son  

2nd person plural Vosotros (In Spain): sois    

3rd person plural Ellos/Ellas: son

Knowing this, let's answer the questions:

<h2 /><h2>1. Marisa y Felipe <u>son</u></h2>

Marisa and Felipe corresponds to the <u>3rd person plural</u> ellos (they), hence the correct conjugation of ser is ellos <u>son</u>.

<h2>2. Tus amigos y tú <u>son</u></h2>

Tus amigos y tú (Your friends and you) corresponds to the <u>2nd person plural</u> ustedes (you), hence the correct conjugation of ser is ustedes <u>son</u>.

<h2 /><h2>3. Yo <u>soy</u></h2>

Yo (I) corresponds to the <u>1st person singular</u>, hence the correct conjugation of ser is Yo <u>soy</u>.

<h2>4. Mi computadora <u>es</u></h2>

Mi computadora (My computer) corresponds to the <u>3rd person singular feminine</u> esa (it), hence the correct conjugation of ser is esa <u>es</u>.

<h2>5. Los chicos de mi clase y yo <u>somos</u></h2>

Los chicos de mi clase y yo (The guys in my class and I) corresponds to the <u>1st person plural</u> nosotros (we), hence the correct conjugation of ser is nosotros <u>somos</u>.
