se siente, etc.) y "describir las características de alguien o algo" (qué es algo, su color, a quien
pertenece, etc.). Dichas estructuras son:

Afirmativa: Sujeto + am / is / are + complement

Ejemplo: I am a student (soy estudiante)

Negativa: Sujeto + am / is / are + not + complement

Ejemplo: I am not a teacher (no soy profesora)

Pregunta Yes / No: Am / is / are + sujeto + complement?
