Nouns Unlike English, Spanish nouns have a gender: they are either masculine ( el ) or feminine ( la ). Therefore words for the and a(n) must agree with the noun they accompany - whether masculine, feminine or plural:
The ending of the noun will usually indicate whether it is masculine or feminine: -o or -or are generally masculine -a, -dad, -ión, -tud, -umbre are generally feminine note: feminine nouns beginning with a stressed a- or ha- take the masculine article el, though the noun is still feminine. plurals The articles el and la become los and las. Nouns ending with a vowel become plural by adding s: el gato * los gatos la plaza * las plazas la calle * las calles Where the noun ends in a consonant, then -es is added: el color * los colores la ciudad * las ciudades Nouns ending in -z change their ending to -ces in the plural. el lápiz * los lápices la voz * las voces |
