Hablar de la edad<\/h2>\r\nAnother very common use of the verb tener<\/span> is to talk about age. As you know, age is a very common topic of conversation among family and friends. Just as in English, age can be a sensitive topic in Spanish. In other words, it is not very common to ask someone whom you don't know very well how old he\/she is, unless there are special circumstances, or the context of the conversation gives way for such a discussion. Of course, it is not too sensitive to ask children their age!\r\n
