I saw that "contador" is "accountant". But, how can I use this in a sentence? For example:
"My friend is an accountant." or "My friend is accountant" ??? Which one?
Thank you very much indeed!
"My friend is an accountant." or "My friend is accountant" ??? Which one?
Thank you very much indeed!

Tiago, you'd definitely say "My friend is an accountant." As a general English rule, when you are trying to specify someone´s profession, you´re going to insert the article: "He´s an engineer." "She is a doctor." Etc.

PS: If someone knows any exception to that rule, in other words, any kind of profession where we DON'T use the article (a/an), please, post here.
