Topic 1: Stating one's own name with "me llamo" 

• This is one of those things that is much easier if you accept it as it is in Spanish, and don't try to force a translation to English.
   
• "Me llamo" does not mean "my name". It is a verb phrase that literally means "I call myself".
   
• "Me llamo es" is incorrect and does not exist in the language. Do not use this.

Topic 1: Stating one's own name with "me llamo"

Instead, learn the construction:

• To state your own name: "Me llamo" + name
  
  
• Or, if you want to be really emphatic, "Yo me llamo" + name. But it's not necessary or better to do do this.

Topic 2: Introducing someone to someone else

Here's what our textbook tells you to say:  

Es mi [relation to you--friend, mother, professor, etc].
Se llama [name].

• As in: "Es mi madre. Se llama Naomi" or
• "Es mi amiga. Se llama Érica" or
• "Es mi hermano. Se llama Juan." 

Now, we will each use a photo to introduce a friend/family member/pet! I'll start. Remember--this is our formula:

Es mi __________. Se llama ___________.
