Ala
Correct Answer
C. AlExplanation
In Spanish, the preposition "a" is used before a direct object when it refers to a person. In this sentence, "cine" (meaning "movie theater") is the direct object and it refers to a place. However, since the sentence specifies that the person going to the movie theater is "tu" (meaning "you"), the preposition "a" is used to indicate the person. The correct form is "al" which is a contraction of "a" and "el" (meaning "to the").Rate this question:
