1 Los Adjetivos Adjectives

2 When using adjectives in Spanish…
Remember that most adjectives in Spanish are either masculine or feminine, and can be singular or plural…all depending on the noun/nouns being described. Adjectives must always match the noun in gender and number. Some adjectives stay the same for both genders…make sure to watch out for them. (ex: inteligente, deportista, joven, etc.)

3 To make them a certain gender / number…
When an adjective ends in an “o”, you make it feminine by simply removing the ‘o’ which makes it masculine and add an ‘a’ Ex: alto = alta, delgado = delgada To make adjectives plural, simply add an ‘s’ if it ends in a vowel. If it ends in a consonant, add ‘es’.

4 Examples: gordo = gordos fea = feas inteligente = inteligentes
joven = jóvenes
