Review gender from the beginning of the year.
You need to know the gender of the noun so you can figure out the correct definite article to use. |
Each noun has a single correct definite article that could come before the noun. If you do not know if something is masculine or feminine, you can check a Spanish-English dictionary.
You will either see (m.) for masculine or (f.) for feminine. An 's' at the end of the word almost always makes it plural. In the dictionary it will be marked (pl.) if the noun is plural. |
