3 In Spanish… In Spanish the order is different : Article + Noun + Adjective i.e: “La niña bonita” or “El perro feo” Article Noun Adjective

4 Gender and Number As we know, every noun has a gender in Spanish. Nouns are the leaders in a sentence, and the article and adjective have to follow it as far as number (singular or plural) and gender (masculine and feminine). i.e: La niña bonita. El niño bonito. Las niñas bonitas. Los niños bonitos.

5 How do I make it plural? To put a Spanish word in the plural form there is a simple rule to follow. This rule will apply to most cases.  If the word ends in a vowel, add “s” to the end. Example: Casa – Casas Niña – Niñas Fruta – Frutas  If the word ends in a consonant, add “es” to the end. Example: Pared – Paredes Azul - Azules

6 Follow this process: When changing sentences from singular into plural form, follow this process: 1.Identify the noun. 2. Classify the noun (feminine or masculine, singular or plural) 3.Use the article and the adjective(s) that agree with the noun.
