Adjectives: Forms
(1st of 2) |
Adjectives of nationality and adjectives that end in -o have four forms in Spanish to reflect gender (masculine, feminine) and number (singular, plural). The adjective must agree in gender and number with the noun it describes: el hombre mexicano, la mujer mexicana, los hombres mexicanos, las mujeres mexicanas, un hotel bueno, una cerveza buena, unos hoteles buenos, unas cervezas buenas, etc. Adjectives that end in -e or in a consonant have only two forms, singular and plural. These adjectives do not normally reflect gender: un hombre interesante, una mujer interesante, unos hombres interesantes, unas mujeres interesantes, un precio especial, una comida especial, unos precios especiales, unas comidas especiales. |
