Adjectives in Spanish<\/strong> are words that are used to describe people, objects, etc.
Like nouns, adjectives follow some grammatical rules. We are going to look at the order and placement of Spanish adjectives in sentences.<\/p>

Characteristics and order of Spanish adjectives<\/h2>

Adjectives are words that are used to describe nouns and give more information about them.<\/strong>
For example, the adjective \u00ab\u00a0bonito\/a\u00a0\u00bb is an adjective that can be used to talk about someone’s physical appearance like this: \u00ab\u00a0She is a pretty girl\u00a0\u00bb. As you can see in the example above, the adjective \u00ab\u00a0pretty\u00a0\u00bb was placed after the noun, not before it. However, adjectives in Spanish can be placed before the noun in some cases and mean the same thing.<\/p>

Adjectives that are always placed before the noun are numerals, possessive adjectives, demonstrative determiners and adverbs<\/a> of quantity, such as \u00ab\u00a0several, some, few\u00a0\u00bb.

One thing you should know is that when using more than one adjective in Spanish in the same sentence, you should separate them using commas. For example: \u00ab\u00a0\u00c9l es inteligente, alto, …\u00a0\u00bb and use the conjunction \u00ab\u00a0y\u00a0\u00bb for the last pair of adjectives: \u00ab\u00a0\u00c9l es inteligente, alto y amable\u00a0\u00bb.<\/p>
