Describe what you would expect to see and do at a guateque campesino.

explain why the verb ser is used in the following sentence: yo soy alta

Question 1:

The first thing we must do for this case is to know what it is a "Guateque campesino"

The "Guateque campesino" is a celebration of Cuban origin carried out by peasants where we find some things like the music coming from the following instruments: "el tres, el laúd, el güiro y la guitarra"

These parties are accompanied by dances such as "el zapateo".

The "Guateque campesino" is a way to get together in a group with friends or neighbors, to celebrate normally the end of a harvest or family anniversary.

Question 2:

For this case we use the verb to be (ser) to describe a person.

This form of the verb to be (ser), usually follows the following structure:

Subject + verb to be (ser) + adjective.

We then have the following expression:

I am tall

The translation of the sentence in Spanish is:

Yo Soy Alta

We use the verb to be (ser) because we are describing a person.
