In Spanish, adjectives have to match the nouns they describe in terms of gender and number.

This means if a noun is feminine (female), like "flor," the adjective must also be feminine.

For example, the word "rojo" means red. We use "rojo" for masculine (male) nouns. But if we're talking about something feminine, we change "rojo" to "roja."

Adjective-Noun Agreement

1. Masculine Form:

   • "rojo" (red)
   • Example: "el coche rojo" (the red car)

2. Feminine Form:

   • When we're describing a feminine noun, we change "rojo" to "roja."
   • Example: "la flor roja" (the red flower)

Key Rules

• Feminine Nouns: Most nouns that end with the letter -a are feminine.

  • Example: "la casa" (the house)

• Adjective Agreement: The adjective needs to match the gender of the noun.

  • Example: "una niña alta" (a tall girl)

Practice Sentences

• "El vestido rojo" (The red dress) - masculine
• "La mesa roja" (The red table) - feminine

So, when you describe a feminine word like "flor," always remember to use "roja" instead of "rojo"!
