Age

When we ask for a person’s age we use the following questions:

You

How old are you?
I am 15 years old

He

How old is he?
He is 15 years old

She

How old is she?
She is 15 years old

They

How old are they?
They are 15 years old

As you can see, when we express age, we use verb to be (NOT the verb “have” as we do it in Spanish). Look at the following examples:

Tengo 15 años = I am 15 years old (correct)

I have 15 years old (Incorrect)

She is 15 years old (correct)

She has 15 years old (incorrect)

He is 15 years old (correct)

He has 15 years old (incorrect)
