BLANK veintiocho años.

--blanks--

Tengo

--feedback--

This verb is used to express age in Spanish.

--explanation--

The verb tener means "to have". Its first-person singular form is tengo.

To express your age you should say tengo + number + años. For example:

  • Tengo veinte años – I'm 20 years old.

  • Tengo veintidós años – I'm 22 years old.

So, when someone says Tengo veintiocho años, that means that the person is 28 years old.
