How do you say "my favorite class is gym" in spanish?

Answer 1

"Mi clase favorita es gimnasia."
OR
"Mi clase favorita es la de gimnasia"

Litehouse, "gimnasia" ends with an "a" and IS feminine, (so "La gimnasia"), and in this sentence you don't need to write the article. So the first answer (Newlywed) was right.

Answer 2

"Mi clase favorita es el gimnasia." Newlywed has it right. I can only add a few comments.

I've added the article "el" for "the." In spanish, you have to include it to say it right. In other words, the english equivalent would be "my favorite class is the gym." That's how it's done in spanish.

Another note worthwile - ordinarly, all words that end in the letter "a" are considered to be femine and are preceded by the spanish "la" (99% of the time). But, there are a very few exceptions. This is one of those rare times. Another is el agua (the water). An interesting thing about spanish is that any adjectives that explain things about something have to agree with the male/female thing - but not when this strange thing happens. Thus, "el agua esta fria" breaks all the rules. First of all, it's "el agua: and that's rule number one in spanish - broken - and then, "esta fria" brings it back to being a femine thing (cuz it ends in "a" - agua). All-in-all, to me, that's pretty amazing for a language to do that!

Another thought. Things, thought to be femine must have some social basis. I wonder why "gym" has been thought of for centuries as a femine activity. I bet that it all started out as a very femine thing like gymnasticts is today. Most of the olymic gymnastics are female. I bet it all started that way. A women's world. But then men came into it and sorta stole that away and so it changed to being a male thing. It's kept it's femine ending ("a) but is preceded now with "el" - a masculine pronoun. Interesting, isn't it? But, how did all of this happen?

As you can tell, I'm very involved with the spanish language and where it came from, both centuries ago and how it is evolving yet today.

Hope you not only learned how to say it but, something else beyond. That's how I teach. Enjoy.

And thank you for your curosity about one of the most beautiful languages in the world.

I've tried to use the spell checker but it seems it's down for the count. So, if I made any minor mistakes, just read me for content. Sorry.

Answer 4

Re Mr Litehouse 22's comments - agua is still a feminine noun even though you write 'el agua.' Why? Because there's a rule in Spanish that dictates that if a word starts with a STRESSED 'a' (one that has the tonic accent) then it is preceded by 'el.' Another example is 'el águila.' - the eagle.
