Hello there! I'm really glad to be teaching you today. Let's dive right in and talk about the word "Ellas." So, "Ellas" is actually a Spanish word and in English, it means "they" when referring to a group of females. It's used to talk about a group of female subjects or a group of people where females are the majority.

Now, let me break it down even further for you. Imagine you have a class of students and all of them are girls. When you want to say "they" in Spanish, you would use "Ellas." So, if you are talking about what the girls in your class did over the weekend, you would say "Ellas fueron al parque" (which means "They went to the park").

But wait, there's more! "Ellas" can also be used to talk about a group of mixed gender but with the majority being females. For example, if you're describing your friends who are a mix of boys and girls but the girls are the majority, you would say "Ellas son mis amigas" (which means "They are my friends" referring to the girls in the group).

Now, let me give you a little analogy to help you remember. Think of "Ellas" as your favorite ice cream sundae with lots of different delicious toppings. The toppings represent the girls in the group, and "Ellas" is the name you give when you want to talk about all those scrumptious toppings as a group.

So, to sum it up, "Ellas" is a Spanish word that simply means "they" when referring to a group of females or a group with the majority being females. It helps us talk about a bunch of girls or a group where most of the people are girls. Remember the ice cream sundae analogy and practice using it whenever you talk about groups of girls, and you'll become an expert in no time! Keep up the great work, and let me know if you have any more questions. You're doing awesome!
