Adjectives/Adjectivos Spanish I Sra Spampinato
Adjectives/Adjectivos: Words that describe people & things are called adjectives. In spanish most adj. have both masculine & Feminine forms- Masculine forms usually end in „o“ and feminine forms usually end in „a“! Gender MUST match what you are describing Ex.: Marco (m) es perezoso. Magarita (f) es perezosa.
Some adjectives do NOT end in „o“--they may end in „e“ or „dor“ Example: Lola (f) es impaciente. Marco (m) es impaciente. Marco (m) es trabajador. Lola (f) es trabajadora.
Adjectives ending in “-ista“, like deportista do not change their ending- used for both masc. & feminine. Ex: Marco es deportista. Lola es deportista.
Adjectives must agree in gender & number Ex: Pedro (m+s) es simpatico. Pedro y Jorge (m+p) son simpáticos. Suzana y Carlota son (f+p) graciosas. Suzana y Jorge (m+p) son graciosos.
