¡Hola, amigos! Sin is a word we often use, and it’s really easy to understand. Basically, it means without or with no. So, don’t worry about memorizing any complicated rules – you’ve got this!
Let’s just see a couple of examples:
I can’t live without you, Juana!
¡No puedo vivir sin ti, Juana!
Pepe lives with no worries.
Pepe vive sin preocupaciones.
The only special thing we need to learn is that when we have a pronoun after sin, it goes like this:
| English | Español |
|---|---|
| without me | sin |
| without you (singular, informal) | sin |
| without you (singular, formal) | sin usted |
| without him | sin él |
| without her | sin ella |
| without us | sin nosotros/as |
| without you (plural) | sin ustedes |
| without them (masculine) | sin ellos |
| without them (feminine) | sin ellas |
| without you (singular, informal, regional) | sin vos |
| without you (plural, informal, regional) | sin vosotros sin vosotras |
