Imagine
you are talking to
a relative, a friend or colleague. You are talking about jewellery.
You show the other person a pair of earrings The other person
says to you something like: "are
those silver earrings?"
In
Spanish, the other person would more likely say:
¿Esos
pendientes son de plata?
The question refers
to a masculine multiple item word and is a straightforward invitation
for you to state if those items, the earrings in question are silver
earrings. The answer could be a simple yes/ no. However, you could
easily be more informative with very little additional effort.
Have a look at some
examples of how you could reply:
- Sí, estos pendientes son de plata (yes, these earrings are silver);
- No, estos pendientes no son de plata (no, these earrings are not silver);
- No, estos pendientes no son de plata, son de oro blanco (no, these earrings are not silver, they are white gold earrings);
Now
you should practise answering the question:
¿Esos
pendientes son de plata?
