- Nouns in spanish are male or female. The word that is used for "the" before
- the noun depends not only on this gender but also if the noun is singular or
- plural. Usually words that end in -o or - ma are masculine and words ending
- in -a or -dad or -ie are feminine. La=the for feminine singular and Las=the
- for fem plural. El and Los are for male nouns. Add an s to the end of plurals
- Of course when we want to say my (noun) or this (noun) or that (noun) we
- don't use the word la or the el. We just say my book or mi libro.
- Adjectives are words that describe nouns. For example the big room or the
- white dog. In spanish unlike english - adjectives come after the nouns they
- describe. We might say ...el libro grande which means the large book.
- Putting It Together
- In spanish the verb follows the subject in a sentence. For example....
- Yo necesito un sombrero is comprised of A) I -the subject
- B) need -the verb
- C) a hat -a noun
- We even get a little more complicated by using an adjective and a 2nd verb.
- Yo necesito ir al banco grande. Means I need to go to the big bank. Yo is
- the subject. Necesito is the verb. Ir is a second verb. Al is made from
- the word a (to) and the el(the) from banco. We put them together to form
- al. Finally we have banco or bank. THIS IS THE LAST FORMAL LESSON.
