Description

Understanding how adjectives work in Spanish is essential for fluency and accuracy. Unlike English, where adjectives come before nouns, Spanish adjectives usually follow the noun—but there are important exceptions! This course will guide you through correct adjective placement, agreement in gender and number, and special cases where adjectives change form.You’ll start by learning the basic rules of adjective placement and agreement, ensuring you can correctly modify singular and plural nouns. Then, we’ll explore exceptions—certain adjectives that drop their final "-o" before singular masculine nouns (e.g., buen maestro instead of bueno maestro). You’ll also discover key transformations like "gran" vs. "grande," "cien" vs. "ciento," and "San" vs. "Santo."Through clear explanations, structured examples, and practical exercises, you’ll develop confidence in applying these rules to real-world conversations. This course is perfect for beginners and intermediate learners who want to refine their grammar skills and sound more natural when speaking or writing Spanish.By the end, you’ll have mastered how to place adjectives correctly, adjust their form when necessary, and avoid common mistakes—giving you a stronger foundation for Spanish fluency.
