The last item in this chapter refers to feelings. Generally speaking, feelings are adjectives, which agree in gender and number. This implies that you need to be aware if you are talking about yourself or others in the singular and/or plural form. As such, a question such as “Cómo estás?” (how are you?) can be replied with:
1 Estoy bien I am Fine 2 Estoy cansado/a (I am tired) 3 Estoy feliz (I am happy)
Notice how “feliz” does not have a gender agreement but would have a plural agreement as “feliz” (singular) and “felices” (happy in plural form). |
Notice how most of the adjectives are presented as “o/a” in order to indicate their masculine or feminine form. There are a couple of exceptions, such as “feliz,” “triste,” and “optimista,” which do not have a specific gender form. So, please make sure to use them without changing their ending. Nevertheless, they do have a singular and plural form. So, make sure to keep this in mind.
1 Sorprendido/a Surprised 2 Contento/a Happy, satisfied 3 Nervioso/a Nervous 4 Ocupado/a Busy
