Grammar Point: Subject pronouns

Like English, Spanish has subject pronouns: yo ("I"), tú ("you"), él ("he"), ella ("she"), etc. The verb's ending changes according to the subject, e.g.: yo hablo ("I speak"), tú hablas ("you speak"), él habla ("he speaks").

Still, it is common to not use the subject pronoun in Spanish, e.g.: ¿Hablas inglès? ("Do you speak English?"); Necesito comprar zapatos ("I need to buy shoes"). You can learn more about subject pronouns here.
