"Alejandra, ¿es tuyo este reloj?" "No, no es mío. _____ de Marcos."

a. Está
b. Va
c. Es
d. Son

please help me with this one!

thanks

No, No. Look at the main verb ¿ES? It comes from ser. Then look at the next verb "ES" also from ser. What you need is a singular ser verb. The only one there is c.

Sra

To answer this question, we need to consider what Alejandra is saying. Alejandra is responding to the question, "Is this watch yours?" with "No, it's not mine." So, Alejandra is describing the watch as someone else's.

The phrase "_____ de Marcos" in the second sentence implies that the watch belongs to Marcos.

Now, let's consider the options:

a. Está - This option means "it is," but it doesn't indicate possession. Therefore, it doesn't fit the context.

b. Va - This option means "goes," and it doesn't make sense in this context where ownership is being discussed. Therefore, it doesn't fit the context.

c. Es - This option means "is," and it is a form of the verb "ser" which is used to indicate possession. Therefore, it fits the context.

d. Son - This option means "are," but we are discussing a single watch and not multiple watches. Therefore, it doesn't fit the context.

Based on the explanation above, the correct answer is "c. Es."
