Adjective Agreemen

Now what is Adjective Agreement

• In Spanish, the adjective has to agree, in both gender and number, with whatever it is describing

• If the adjective modifies a feminine noun, then the adjective uses a feminine ending

• Example: bonito - pretty: singular feminine – bonita\

• In other words, if the noun has either a masculine or feminine ending, the adjective ending will correspond with it

(continued)• Another example if the subject is

el boligrafo(notebook) and the adjective is feo(ugly) you put feo because boligrafo is masculine: El boligrafo feo.

• So when you read the phrase the noun and adjective have the same ending sound. Whether it is “o” for masculine and “a” for feminine the subject and adjective will have that same ending sound.

What about Plural?

• The adjective agreement is not limited to plural words. Instead of using el or la, it used los or las to tell that it's plural.

• Again the same rule applies. If it's los the adjective also have to end with “os” and las have to end with “as”

• Also plural adjective is now son. It's like the word “are”

(continued)

• For example Las calculadoras son altas.

• Ex2: Los cuadernos son nuevos.• The calculators are tall• The notebooks are new

Words that ends with an e or a consonant.

• If the adjective ends with e or a consonant, all you have to do is just leave it as it is. But if it is plural just put an s or es.

• For example:(Single) Michael Jackson es inteligente.

• Ex2: (Plural) Los balarines(dancers) son interesantes
