In Spanish, it is not always necessary to include a subject pronoun before the verb because the verb ending itself indicates the subject. This is because Spanish verbs have different endings for each person (yo, tú, él/ella, nosotros/as, vosotros/as, ellos/ellas), making the subject pronoun redundant.
For example, instead of saying "yo estudio" (I study), we can simply say "estudio". The verb form "estudio" already indicates that the subject is "yo" (I).
Another example is "él habla" (he speaks). Here, "habla" already tells us that the subject is "él" (he).
In conclusion, Spanish verbs have distinct endings for each person, so including a subject pronoun is optional in most cases.
