1. First, let´s translate the following Spanish family words from Spanish to English:

– Hija
– Sobrino

2. Now I would like you to translate the following family titles from English to Spanish:

– Cousins
– Brothers and sisters
– Wife
– Uncle
– Granddaughter
– Grandparents
– Children
– Mother
– Niece

3. Next, I would like you to try to understand and translate the following Spanish sentences:

– María es la tía de Antonio
– Roberto y Carmela son los padres de Vicente
– ¿Eres el primo de Luis?
– Somos los hermanos de Mercedes
– ¿Sois los padres de Sofía?
– Carmen es la sobrina de Carlota
– Son los abuelos de Nuria

4. Now say the following sentences in Spanish:

– Are you Ana´s mother?
– I am José´s niece
– Are you Pablo´s grandparents?
– She is Carmen´s aunt

5. Let´s practice now the Spanish possessive determiners. Translate the following:

6. Finally, how do you say the following in Spanish?:
