Spanish Gender Adjective Agreement Quiz - Quiz

2. Mi maestra es ________(bueno/buena).

Explanation

The correct answer is "buena" because the word "maestra" refers to a female teacher, and in Spanish, adjectives must agree in gender with the noun they modify. Since "maestra" is feminine, the adjective "buena" must also be in its feminine form.

Submit
3. María es ________(moreno/morena/morenos/morenas).

Explanation

The given question is asking for the correct form of the adjective to describe María. In Spanish, adjectives must agree in gender and number with the noun they modify. Since María is a female singular noun, the correct form of the adjective is "morena," which agrees in gender and number with María.

Submit
4. Ella es ________(malo/mala/malos/malas)

Explanation

The correct answer is "mala" because the adjective "mala" agrees with the feminine subject "Ella". In Spanish, adjectives must match in gender and number with the noun they modify. Since "Ella" is a singular feminine subject, the adjective must also be singular and feminine, hence "mala" is the correct form.

Submit
5. El perro es _________(bueno/buena/buenos/buenas)

Explanation

The correct answer is "bueno" because in Spanish, adjectives must agree in gender and number with the noun they modify. "Perro" is a masculine singular noun, so the adjective that describes it must also be masculine singular, which is "bueno".

Submit
6. If the noun is feminine the adjective must also be:

Explanation

When referring to a feminine noun, it is grammatically correct for the accompanying adjective to also be in the feminine form. This is because in many languages, including Spanish, French, and Italian, adjectives must agree in gender with the noun they modify. This agreement ensures that the noun and adjective match in terms of gender, maintaining grammatical consistency in the sentence. Therefore, if the noun is feminine, the adjective must also be feminine to adhere to the rules of agreement.

Submit
7. If the noun is singular the adjective must also be:

Explanation

When referring to a singular noun, the corresponding adjective should also be in the singular form. This is because adjectives agree in number with the nouns they modify. In English grammar, singular nouns are used to describe one person, place, thing, or idea, while plural nouns refer to more than one. Therefore, to maintain grammatical agreement and clarity in a sentence, it is important to use a singular adjective when the noun being described is singular.

Submit
8. El gato es _______(grande/grandes)

Explanation

The correct answer is "grande" because it agrees in gender and number with the noun "gato", which is singular and masculine. In Spanish, adjectives must match the noun they modify in gender and number. Since "gato" is singular and masculine, the adjective "grande" also needs to be singular and masculine.

Submit
9. Mi amiga es _________(bonito/bonita/bonitos/bonitas).

Explanation

The correct answer is "bonita" because it agrees with the gender of "amiga" which is feminine. In Spanish, adjectives must agree in gender and number with the noun they modify. Since "amiga" is singular and feminine, the adjective "bonita" is the correct form.

Submit
10. La doctora es ________(bueno/buena/buenos/buenas).

Explanation

The correct answer is "buena" because "doctora" is a feminine noun, so the adjective that describes it should also be feminine. In Spanish, adjectives change their form to agree in gender and number with the noun they modify. Since "buena" is the feminine singular form of the adjective "bueno," it correctly matches with the feminine singular noun "doctora."

Submit
11. La muchacha es __________(bajo/baja/bajas/bajos)

Explanation

The correct answer is "baja" because it agrees with the gender and number of the noun "muchacha." In Spanish, adjectives must match the noun they modify in gender (masculine or feminine) and number (singular or plural). Since "muchacha" is a singular feminine noun, the adjective "baja" is the correct form. The other options ("bajo," "bajas," "bajos") do not agree with the noun and are therefore incorrect.

Submit
12. Ana es _______(bueno/a).

Explanation

The correct answer is "buena" because "Ana" is a female name, and in Spanish, adjectives must agree in gender with the noun they modify. Since "Ana" is feminine, the adjective "buena" must also be feminine.

Submit
13. Juan es _______(alto/alta/altos/altas).

Explanation

Juan is a male name, so the correct form to describe his height would be "alto."

Submit
14. Los perros son ________(gordo/gordos/gorda/gordas).

Explanation

The correct answer is "gordos" because the word "perros" is plural in Spanish, so the adjective that describes them should also be plural. In this case, "gordos" is the plural form of the adjective "gordo," which means "fat" in English.

Submit
15. Susie es ___________(trabajador/trabajadora/trabajadores/trabajadoras)

Explanation

The correct answer is "trabajadora" because the word "Susie" is a female name, and in Spanish, adjectives must agree in gender with the noun they modify. Since "trabajadora" is the feminine form of the adjective "trabajador," it is the appropriate choice to describe Susie as a hardworking woman.

Submit
16. Los chicos son ________(serio/seria/serios/serias).

Explanation

The correct answer is "serios" because "chicos" is a masculine plural noun, and in Spanish, adjectives must agree in gender and number with the noun they modify. Since "serios" is the masculine plural form of the adjective "serio," it matches with "chicos" in both gender and number.

Submit
17. If the noun is masculine the adjective must also be:

Explanation

In the given question, the correct answer is "masculine". This means that if the noun is masculine, the adjective that describes it must also be masculine. In grammar, adjectives agree in gender with the nouns they modify. This means that if a noun is masculine, the adjective that accompanies it should also be in the masculine form. This rule ensures grammatical agreement and coherence in the sentence.

Explanation

The given sentence is in Spanish and it is asking for the correct form of the adjective "guapo/guapa/guapos/guapas" to describe "La chica" (The girl). Since "La chica" is a singular feminine noun, the correct form of the adjective should also be singular and feminine, which is "guapa".
