To show ownership in Spanish, we use the verb tener, which means "to have." Let’s break it down in a simple way:

1. Present Tense Conjugation: Here’s how we say "to have" for different people:

   • Yo tengo (I have)
   • Tú tienes (You have)
   • Él/Ella/Usted tiene (He/She/You formal has)
   • Nosotros tenemos (We have)
   • Vosotros tenéis (You all have)
   • Ellos/Ellas/Ustedes tienen (They/You all formal have)

2. Articles: Articles are small words that go with nouns.

   • Definite Articles (meaning "the"): el, la, los, las
   • Indefinite Articles (meaning "a" or "an"): un, una, unos, unas
   • Example: Tengo un libro (I have a book).

3. Adjective Agreement: Adjectives are words that describe nouns. They need to match the noun in gender (like male or female) and number (singular or plural).

   • Example: Tengo dos casas rojas (I have two red houses).

4. Asking Questions: To ask questions, you can change the order of the words or change how you say it.

   • Example: ¿Tienes un perro? (Do you have a dog?).
