Explanation
There are six different ways to conjugate a verb, depending on the subject and tense. These include the base form, the third person singular form, the past tense form, the present participle form, the past participle form, and the present tense form. Each of these forms has its own specific ending or conjugation pattern that changes depending on the subject and tense being used.

Which of the following is NOT a pronoun used when conjugating a verb?
- A.
  
  I
- B.
  
  When
- C.
  
  You
- D.
  
  They
Correct Answer
B. When

Explanation
When is not a pronoun used when conjugating a verb. Pronouns are words that replace nouns in a sentence, but "when" does not serve this purpose. "I," "you," and "they" are all pronouns that can be used to replace specific nouns in a sentence. However, "when" is an adverb that is used to indicate the time at which something happens, and it does not replace a noun.

If you want to say, "I have a date" in Spanish, which form of "tener" would you choose?
- A.
  
  Tengo
- B.
  
  Tienes
- C.
  
  Tiene
- D.
  
  Tenemos
Correct Answer
A. Tengo

Explanation
The correct answer is "Tengo" because "tengo" is the first person singular form of the verb "tener" which means "to have" in Spanish. In this case, "I" is the subject of the sentence, so we use the first person singular form "tengo" to say "I have a date".

If you want to say, "You all have too much on your mind" in Spanish, which form of "tener" would you choose?
- A.
  
  Tengo
- B.
  
  Tienes
- C.
  
  Teneis
- D.
  
  Tienen
Correct Answer
C. Teneis

Explanation
The correct answer is "Teneis." In Spanish, "tener" is the verb "to have." The form "teneis" is the second person plural form, which is used when addressing a group of people. Therefore, if you want to say "You all have too much on your mind" in Spanish, you would choose the form "teneis."

Which of the following is NOT a form of "tener"?
- A.
  
  Tengo
- B.
  
  Tenges
- C.
  
  Tienes
- D.
  
  Teneis
Correct Answer
B. Tenges

Explanation
"Tenges" is not a form of "tener" because it does not exist in the Spanish language. The correct forms of "tener" in the present tense are "tengo" (I have), "tienes" (you have), and "tenéis" (you all have). "Tenges" is not a valid conjugation and is therefore not a form of "tener".

If you want to say, "She has beautiful hair" in Spanish, which form of "tener" would you choose?
- A.
  
  Tienes
- B.
  
  Teneis
- C.
  
  Teienen
- D.
  
  Tiene
Correct Answer
D. Tiene

Explanation
The correct answer is "Tiene". In Spanish, the verb "tener" means "to have". When talking about someone's physical characteristics, we use the verb "tener" to express possession. Therefore, to say "She has beautiful hair" in Spanish, we would use the third person singular form of "tener", which is "tiene".

Which of the following is NOT a form of "tener"?
- A.
  
  Tiengo
- B.
  
  Tenemos
- C.
  
  Tienen
- D.
  
  Tengo
Correct Answer
A. Tiengo

Explanation
The correct answer is "Tiengo" because "tiengo" is not a form of the verb "tener" in Spanish. The correct form is "tengo," which is the first-person singular form of "tener" meaning "I have." "Tenemos" is the first-person plural form meaning "we have," and "tienen" is the third-person plural form meaning "they have."

- A.
  
  Tenemos
- B.
  
  Tienen
- C.
  
  Tengo
- D.
  
  Tienes
Correct Answer
D. Tienes

Explanation
The correct answer is "Tienes." In the question, the speaker is asking about the time "you" have gym with "them" today. Since the subject is "you," the correct form of "tener" to use is the second person singular form, which is "tienes."
