A noun is a word used to denote a:
person
place
thing
All Spanish nouns are either masculine or feminine.
Usually - although not always - masculine nouns end with –o and
feminine nouns end with –a
Examples of masculine nouns which end in –o would be:
vaso ..........glass
plato ......... plate
cuchillo ..... knife
libro .......... book
Examples of feminine nouns ending in –a would be:
taza .......... cup
mesa ........ table
cuchara .... spoon
cabeza ...... head
Sometimes, with nouns relating to persons or animals, the –o or –a at
the end will change, depending on whether it relates to male or
female.
Some examples of this are:
gato .......... male cat
gata .......... female cat
abuelo ...... grandfather
abuela ...... grandmother
tío ............. uncle
tía ............. aunt
chico ......... boy
chica ......... girl
