    Lesson 3
     
    Adjetivos - Adjectives
     
    An adjective is a word that describes a noun. In Spanish all nouns have gender. They are either masculine or feminine. Adjectives must agree with the noun that they describe in gender and number.
     
    Example: El es alto.       Ellos son altos.
                  Ella es alta.     Ellas son altas.
     
    For adjectives that end in -o in the masculine form, change the -o to an -a to make it feminine.   Example:  rojo        roja
     
    To make an adjective plural....
     
    1.  add -s  if it ends in a vowel.      Example: alto - altos
    2. add -es if it ends in a consonant.  Example: fácil - fáciles
     
    Most adjectives ending in -e or a consonant remain the same in both the masculine and feminine forms. Example: La lección es fácil. 
                                                              El examen es fácil.  
                                                              El es inteligente.
                                                              Ella es inteligente.
     
    If a group is made up of both masculine and feminine nouns, use the masculine form. Example: Los chicos y las chicas son altos.
                                          The boys and girls are tall.
     
    * Adjectives usually come after the noun that they describe.
