A noun is a word that represents a thing, either concrete (e.g., a computer, a sofa) or abstract (a desire, success). In Spanish, all nouns have a gender, in other words they are either masculine or feminine. Usually, the ending gives us information about the gender:

There are some exceptions, but in over 95% of the cases these rules apply. For that reason, if you are starting to study Spanish, do not worry much about those exceptions. You will learn them as you go! Pluralizing Nouns In most cases, in Spanish we pluralize nouns by attacing “S“ to the noun.

Examples:

casa (house)        casas

perro                     perros

In Spanish, adjectives are also pluralized and they follow the same rules as nouns.
