Hey there, language explorers! 🌍 Did you know that we use IS or ´S with WE, YOU, and THEY? Let's find out if that's true!

• Absolutely TRUE! 🎉

• Oh no, that's FALSE! ❌

• Not ALWAYS, my friend! 🤔

Hey there, language explorers! 🌍 Can you help Henry, Arya, and James figure out when to use ARE or `RE? Let's see if you can spot the right answer!

• He, She, It

• You, We, They

• He, She, You

• We, They, It

Answer explanation

The correct choice is 'You, We, They' because 'ARE' is used with these pronouns in the present tense. 'RE' is a contraction of 'are' and is also used with these pronouns.
