Study Notes
Spanish Grammar for Beginners: The 9 Parts of Speech
- Understanding the 9 parts of speech in Spanish is crucial for learning Spanish grammar.
- There are 4 definite articles in Spanish: los, las, el, and la, each serving a specific purpose in specifying nouns.
- Spanish has four indefinite articles: un, una, unos, and unas, offering a nonspecific way to refer to a noun.
- Nouns in Spanish function similarly to English, representing people, places, and things, and often have specific endings indicating their role in a sentence.
- Adjectives in Spanish come after the noun they describe, unlike in English where they come before.
- Spanish verbs end in -ar, -er, or -ir in their neutral form, and they are commonly conjugated in various tenses.
- Adverbs in Spanish, often ending in -mente, provide additional description to verbs, similar to how English adverbs end in -ly.
