Singular - Plural - Masculine - Feminine - Spanish Agreement Quiz on Monday

  • You may use your class folder on the quiz
  • It's short (7 questions)
The quiz will look a little like this:
 
There will be a word (noun) like "pavo" (turkey) and a number in front, like "dos" (2) - which is a clue that it is plural.  Given two options to choose from,
A. pavo 
B. pavos - you would choose b. pavos (the plural form).
 
You might have another noun like "papa" (potato), a number in front, like "tres" (3) which is a clue that it is plural, and then a choice of 4 adjectives (you have been learning colors also with gender agreement).  The ending -a is a clue the noun is femininien, the ending -o is a clue it is masculine. So the answer choices for the adjective would be: 
A. rojo
B. roja
C. rojos
D. rojas
The correct answer would be D - tres papas rojas (3 red potatoes)
 
The last noun we covered was "regalos" (gifts which in Spanish is a masculine noun - the students learned to look at the suffix, or ending to determine -o for masculine or -a for feminine). So if the quiz asks for the correct adjective for "2 regalos _____________" - the choices would be:
 
A. rojo
B. roja
C. rojos
D. rojas
  • The correct answer would be C ("regalos" is plural and masculine, so 2 red gifts)  Agreement basically just means the adjective has to match the noun.
