Lesson Details
Key learning points
- Spanish adjectives change depending on whether the noun is masculine o feminine.
- Masculine adjectives change from -o to -a when the noun being described is feminine.
- Spanish adjectives change depending on whether the noun is singular (one) or plural (more than one).
- Spanish uses 'es' to describe someone or something and 'son' to describe two or more people or things.
Common misconception
Adjectives do not have plurals forms, like English.
In Spanish, adjectives match the nouns they describe. If the noun is singular, the adjective will be singular as well, and the same for plural nouns.
