Articles

There are 2 types of articles: Definite and Indefinite

^^Definite^^ Articles are used when you are ^^DEFINITELY SURE^^ about what or who you’re talking about. Using a definite article is like saying “the” in English.

• I want THE book::Quiero ^^el^^ libro
• She is THE math teacher::Ella es ^^la^^ profesora de matemáticas.
• I talk to THE dogs::Hablo con ^^los^^ perros.

==Indefinite== Articles are used when you are talking more ==generally== about something. Indefinite articles are equivalent to “a or an” before a noun.

• I want a book::Quiero ==un== libro
• She is a math teacher::Ella es ==una== profesora de matemáticas
• I talk to some dogs::Hablo con ==unos== perros.

Adjective Agreement

In Spanish, all nouns (people/ place/ thing) have a gender.

Usually when an object is masculine, the word ends in “o” or “os”.

Usually when an object is feminine, the word ends in “a” or “as”.

• Adjectives (describing words) go after the noun and it must match the gender and number of the noun.
  • Una casa roja
  • Un carro blanco
  • Los libros grandes
  • Las profesoras inteligentes
• Number: The adjective must end in S if you’re talking about plural objects.
