Pronouns are very helpful words you use so that you don’t have to keep saying a person’s name over and over. Remember that Spanish has different pronouns for someone you know well — the familiar form — and for more formal relationships. The following table lists singular and plural pronouns for all occasions.
| Person | Singular | Plural |
|---|---|---|
| First person | yo = I | nosotros = we (male or mixed group) nosotras= we (female) |
| Second person familiar | tú = you | vosotros = you (male or mixed group) vosotras = you (female) |
| Second person formal | usted = you | ustedes = you (plural) |
| Third person | él = he ella = she |
ellos= they (male or mixed group) ellas= they (female) |
