    Spanish Grammar

    • Nouns in Spanish have two genders: masculine (el) and feminine (la).
    • To form plurals, add -s to words ending in a vowel (libro → libros) or -es to words ending in a consonant (casa → casas).
    • Adjectives must match the gender and number of the nouns they modify, typically placed after the noun (e.g., casa blanca for "white house").
    • Spanish verbs conjugate differently based on subject pronouns: yo (I), tú (you), él/ella (he/she), nosotros (we), vosotros (you plural), ellos (they).
    • Regular verbs are categorized as -ar (e.g., hablar), -er (e.g., comer), and -ir (e.g., vivir).
    • The present tense describes current actions, such as hablo (I speak) and comes (you eat).
    • The preterite tense expresses completed actions, like hablé (I spoke) and comí (I ate).
    • The imperfect tense indicates ongoing past actions, using forms like hablaba (I was speaking) and comía (I was eating).
    • The future tense is created by combining the infinitive with specific endings (e.g., hablaré for "I will speak").
    • The subjunctive mood conveys desires, doubts, or hypothetical scenarios and is formed by modifying the present tense yo form.
    • Subject pronouns include: yo, tú, él, nosotros, and others; object pronouns include: me, te, lo/la, nos; reflexive pronouns are: me, te, se, nos.
