Masculine – el / un

Feminine – la / una

A noun is an object or a thing, which can usually be preceded by ‘a’ or ‘the’ in English. E.g. Dog, Table, Bottle. Bear in mind that in the language you are

studying, the word for ‘a’/’the’ depends on the gender.

You can recognise these in a dictionary by the letter

‘n’...and in most dictionaries a m / f (/n) will

tell you if its gender

..un gato negromi hermana es altaLas matemáticas son interesantes

An adjective is a word which describes a noun. E.g. A short story, the friendly doctor, the wooden table.

Remember, in a foreign language, you may have to change the endings depending on the gender of a

word.

You can recognise these in a dictionary by the letters

‘adj’...

Most verbs in Spanish end in er / ir / are.g. hablar, comer, sentir

A verb is a doing or action word. E.g. do, went, will, to eat. Verbs that are in the main section of the dictionary are in the infinitive (in the form “to

drink”/”to sing”) so if you find a verb in the Foreign Language, you will probably have to change the verb using the endings you have learnt in class.

You can recognise these in a dictionary by the letters

‘v’/ ‘vt’ / ‘vi’...
