Nouns and Articles Nouns are words that refer to:
• People• Places• Things
In Spanish, all nouns are considered either masculine or feminine.
el diccionario la mochila
MASCULINE FEMININE
Typically, nouns that refer to males are masculine and nouns that refer to females are feminine.
el profesor (male teacher) la profesora (female teacher)
Nouns and Articles So what about all the nouns that refer to things and not people?
The GENDER (masculine/feminine) of nouns that refer toinanimate objects is arbitrary!
Then how do you know whether a noun is masculine or feminine?
Typically nouns that end in –o are masculine and nouns that end in – a are feminine.
Masculine Feminine

LECCIÓN 2: PRIMERA PARTE (CONTD)
Today you will…• Learn about the gender of nouns• Learn the definite and indefinite articles
Nouns and Definite Articles Nouns in Spanish are typically accompanied by an article.
o One kind of article is a DEFINITE ARTICLEWhat is the definite article we use in English?
THEo In Spanish, there are four different ways to say “the”:
EL
LA
LOS
LAS
Why are there so many different
ways to say “the”?
Because it has to match the noun it accompanies
in two ways:
1. Masculine / Feminine
2. Singular / Plural
Nouns and Definite Articles
For example:
COMPUTADORA
Is the noun “computadora”a masculine word or a feminine word?
FEMININE!
Is it singular or plural?SINGULAR!
So the article we use to say “the computer” in Spanish is…LA COMPUTADORA
Nouns and Definite Articles
For example:
CUADERNOS
Is the noun “cuadernos” a masculine word or a feminine word?
MASCULNE!
Is it singular or plural?PLURAL!
So the article we use to say “the notebooks” in Spanish is…LOS CUADERNOS

UN
UNA
UNOS
UNAS
MASCULINE
FEMININE
The plural forms UNOS & UNAS
are often used to say “some”
