To make the sentence singular, you need to change the subject "Mis hermanos" (My siblings) to a singular form. Here's how you can do it:
1. Identify the subject: In this sentence, the subject is "Mis hermanos" (My siblings), which is plural.
2. Choose a singular subject: Select a singular form of "Mis hermanos" to replace it. You can use "Mi hermano" (My brother) or "Mi hermana" (My sister) depending on the gender of your sibling.
3. Adapt the verb: Since the original verb "quieren" (they want) is conjugated for the third person plural, you need to change it to the third person singular form. For example, for "Mi hermano," you would use "quiere" (he wants), or for "Mi hermana," you would use "quiere" as well.
After making these changes, the sentence becomes:
"Mi hermano quiere jugar al futbol." (My brother wants to play soccer.)
or
"Mi hermana quiere jugar al futbol." (My sister wants to play soccer.)
By changing the subject and adapting the verb conjugation accordingly, you successfully transformed the original sentence into a singular form.
