The Near Future Tense

Adjective agreements

In Spanish adjectives change their endings according to the gender and quantity of the words they are describing.

1. If an adjective ends in o (the singular masculine form) you have to add an s to make it plural.

un perro negro - a black dog
unos perros negros - some black dogs

perro - masculine
perros - masculine plural

If the word you are describing is feminine (with una or la) you have to change the o to an a

la corbata blanca - the white tie

Or add as if it is feminine plural (with unas or las)

las corbatas blancas - the white ties

corbata - feminine
corbatas - feminine plural


2. If the adjective ends in an e (interesante, inteligente) then it stays the same for both masculine and feminine.

Mi hermano es inteligente. - My brother is intelligent.
Mi hermana es inteligente. - My sister is intelligent.

However if it is plural you have to add an s.
Mis hermanos son inteligentes.

El Condicional

The conditional in English normally means a sentence with ‘would’ or ‘could’.

To form the conditional in Spanish we just take the infinitive and add:

ía
ías
ía
íamos
íais
ían
