Basically, then, the first word should be spelled
tú. The capital letter is correct because it's the word of the question. This word means
you. It is the subject of the sentence. The
u must have an accent mark so that it can be distinguished from
tu, another word that doesn't have the same meaning.
Questions in Spanish begin with an inverted question mark. The 'Accents' pull-down menu above the text input box has all the special characters you'll need to write proper Spanish.
The next word is the verb
speak. The infinitive form of this verb in Spanish is
hablar. But, since the subject is
you, it is conjugated to
hablas. In a question,
tú hablas means
do you speak.
The next word should be spelled
inglés. This word means English. The accent mark is necessary to distinguish the word from
ingles, another word with another meaning. Note that the word English is not capitalized in Spanish. So far, your sentence means
do you speak English.
The next word means
with.
The last word means
friends.
So, your sentence is
'Do you speak English with ____ friends?'
I'm sure you know what English word goes in the blank now.
The Spanish equivalent will be
tus. This is a plural form of the word
tu (notice that there is no accent). This word means
your. So does the plural form. It must be plural because
amigos is plural. The determiner must agree with the object.
¿Tú hablas inglés con
tus amigos?
= Do you speak English with your friends?
