   'Hay dos baños en mi casa' correctly uses hay to state existence (there are two bathrooms). Hay is never used with estar or as a descriptor.

   Answer: La cocina está delante del jardín.

   'Delante de' means in front of. 'Detrás de' = behind, 'encima de' = on top of, 'debajo de' = under/beneath.

   1. pequeño
   2. pequeña
   3. pequeños
   4. pequeñas
   Show answer

   Answer: pequeñas

   'Las habitaciones' is feminine plural, so the adjective must also be feminine plural: pequeñas. Pequeño is masculine singular, pequeña is feminine singular, pequeños is masculine plural.

6. El libro está ______ de la mesa. (The book is on top of the table.)

   Show answer

   Answer: encima

   'Encima de' means on top of. The full phrase would be 'encima de la mesa.' 'Debajo de' would mean under the table.

   1. Bedroom
   2. Living room
   3. Dining room
   4. Bathroom
   Show answer

   Answer: Dining room

   'El comedor' is the dining room — the room where you eat (comer = to eat). El dormitorio = bedroom, la sala = living room, el baño = bathroom.

8. In Spanish, you use 'estar' (not 'ser') to describe where something is located.

   Show answer

   Answer: True

   Spanish has two verbs for 'to be': ser (for permanent qualities like identity) and estar (for location and temporary states). Location always uses estar.
