Artículos y Pronombres

In general, masculine nouns end in “o”. In general, feminine nouns end in “a”.

Nouns have definite articles that reflect their gender. These articles mean “the” in English.

The masculine definite articles are el and los. The feminine definite articles are la and las.

Here are some examples:

Many masculine nouns do not end in “o”. If it ends in -e, -ma, or a consonant other than -d, -z, or ión, it's also masculine.

Ejemplos: 1. End in –e: el perfume, el estante (shelf), el

maquillaje

2. End in –ma: el programa, el drama, el idioma

3. End in a consonant other tan –d,-z, or ión: el árbol, el rumor, el cojín (cushion)

Masculino y Feminino

You are familiar with the definite articles in Spanish: el, la, los, las. These mean the and are used to describe specific nouns that are easily identified by the listener.

For example: In the sentence, I need the apple, the definite article shows that the speaker is talking about a specific apple the listener can identify.

Artículos Indefinidos

Now let’s talk about indefinite articles!

An indefinite article is used to talk about a noun that is not easily identified by the listener.


Look at the following sentence:

I need an apple.

In this sentence, the noun is “apple” and the indefinite article is “an”. The indefinite article shows that the speaker is not talking about a specific apple; but rather, any apple.


The indefinite articles in Spanish are un, unos, una, unas.

These mean: * un, una = a, an * unos, unas = some

You will need the following phrases in Spanish to complete the activity.
