--instructions--

Listen to the audio and answer the question below.

--questions--

--text--

How is Mateo introducing his name?

--answers--

Soy Mateo.

--feedback--

This means "I'm Mateo", which is correct but not the exact phrase he uses.


Mi nombre es Mateo.

--feedback--

This means "My name is Mateo", but Mateo uses a different structure.


Me llamo Mateo.


Soy el señor Mateo.

--feedback--

This means "I'm Mr. Mateo", but it adds formality that Mateo doesn't use.

--video-solution--

3

--explanation--

Me llamo Mateo means "My name is Mateo".

It’s a common and natural way to introduce yourself in Spanish.

Other valid options are Soy Mateo and Mi nombre es Mateo, but Mateo uses the reflexive verb form llamarse.
