In Spanish, adjectives need to match the nouns they describe.
This means that both need to have the same gender (male or female) and number (singular or plural).
Gender Agreement:
Masculine:
For words that are male, use adjectives that end in -o.
Example: "El perro grande" (The big dog).
Feminine:
For words that are female, use adjectives that end in -a.
Example: "La casa grande" (The big house).
Number Agreement:
Singular:
If the noun is one (singular), use the regular form of the adjective.
Example: "El niño alto" (The tall boy).
Plural:
If there are two or more (plural), add -s or -es to the adjective.
Example: "Los niños altos" (The tall boys).
Example: "Las casas grandes" (The big houses).
