	Spanish adjectives - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Spanish adjectives usually go after the noun they modify, and they agree with what they refer to in terms of both number (singular/plural) and gender (masculine/feminine).
		Spanish adjectives are very similar to nouns, and often interchangeable with them.
		Adjectives in Spanish can mostly be divided into two large groups: those that can be found in the dictionary ending in o, and the others.

	Spanish grammar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Spanish is a relatively inflected language, with a two-gender system and about fifty conjugated forms per verb, but no noun declension and limited pronominal declension.
		Spanish has nouns that express concrete objects, groups and classes of objects, qualities, feelings and other abstractions.
		Unlike in English, Spanish adjectives usually go after the noun they modify, and they agree with what they refer to in terms of both number (singular/plural) and gender (masculine/feminine).

	Spanish Grammar: adjectives part one
		That is, most often adjectives are used to describe a noun, or distinguish the noun from a group of similar objects.
		In Spanish, most adjectives change form, depending upon whether the word they modify is masculine or feminine.
		Adjectives also change form depending upon whether the word they modify is singular or plural.

	Basic Spanish (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Spanish has an inflexional verb system which means that each verb has a root and an inflexion.
		All the nouns in Spanish are either masculine or feminine and when we use an adjective they must agree with the gender of the noun.
		Sometimes the Spanish do not pronounce the "ado" so "hablado" would be said as "hablao" However Spanish pronunciation is quite easy to learn although it is difficult to speak without a foreign accent.

	Spanish grammar: demonstratives
		In Spanish, the only difference between demonstrative pronouns and demonstrative adjectives is that demonstrative pronouns have a written accent.
		In Spanish, we also say "this" and "that," but there is another, separate word used to mean "that one over there." This form is used when the object is more than just a short distance away, for example, on the other side of the room.
		Remember, the demonstrative pronouns are the same as the demonstrative adjectives, except that the pronouns have a written accent.

	Adjectives in Spanish
		Most adjectives have both masculine and feminine, singular and plural forms: the “masculine” vowel is -o, and the “feminine” one is -a.
		Adjectives of nationality whose masculine singular form ends in a consonant and adjectives ending in -dor have feminine forms ending in -a and -as.
		It's important to realize that the final (or last or post-) position in Spanish is generally the position reserved for the element which is the most stressed or most important or most distinctive; when an adjective occurs in the post-position it has the effect of distinguishing the noun involved from other such nouns.

		Adjectives in Spanish act in the same way they do in English - namely they "modify" or describe a noun, for example the yellow bird or the big house or the smart boy.
		The main difference in Spanish is that the adjective needs to agree with the noun in "number" AND "gender" (see gender for more).
		There are times when the adjective in Spanish goes before, but when this happens it is not a general description like "the door that is red".

		An adjective's gender is usually dictated by the gender of the noun to which it is refers.
		The 'convertable' English to Spanish words are known as cognates, words in both languages which share the same Latin root and which are visibly and often audibly very similar.
		For example: "inferior" in Spanish may be used to refer to a subordinate in the work-place, without carrying any of the derogatory meaning in the English usage.

		Since these adjectives appear only in one synset, their Spanishtranslations can be linked to them directly, as at least one of the meanings of the Spanish term should correspond to the English adjective.
		Every occurrence of theoriginal Spanish adjective among the inverse translations of the English synset variants should increase the possibility of connecting the Spanishadjective and the concept represented by the English synset.
		According to this hypothesis, we introduced asimple measure b_r (binding_ratio) that indicates the possibility of relating a Spanish adjective to an English adjective synset: The variants of English synsets that are not in the bilingual dictionary and therefore have no inversetranslation (only 4%), have not been taken into account for the estimates of the binding_ratio.

	Spanish Adjectives
		The plural of the adjective is formed exactly as is the plural of the noun.
		However, adjectives of nationality ending in a consonant, and adjectives ending in -án and in -or (not from a Latin comparative), add -a to form the feminine.
		As a general rule, they follow the noun, especially in the case of long adjectives, proper adjectives, adjectives used emphatically, or of any adjective which is used to call attention to some individual object, separating it from other more or less similar objects.
