You have been working through a lot of material that includes sorting grammatically correct and incorrect sentences.

Directions: Take a look at the sentences below and create a general rule in your own words that you think could explain what makes a sentence grammatically correct in Spanish.

Hint:
Look at the parts of speech (noun, adjective, verb, definite article).
Note the differences among each of the sentences.
Note the subject of the sentence. Describe it.
Use the special phrase: agrees with

Make your best guess and create your grammar rule, then see if your rule applies to the example sentences. We are not looking for a textbook grammar rule, but rather a creation of your own.

Example sentences:
El alumno nuevo es tĂ­mido. The new (male) student is shy.
La alumna nueva es tĂ­mida. The new (female) student is shy.

Los alumnos nuevos son tĂ­midos. The new (male) students are shy.*
Las alumnas nuevas son tĂ­midas. The new (female) students are shy.

*This sentence can also refer to a mixed group of female and male students.*

Extra Help:
El, La, Los, Las= definite articles
es, son= verbs
alumno, alumna, alumnos, alumnas= nouns
nuevo, nueva, nuevos, nuevas= adjectives
tĂ­mido, tĂ­mida, tĂ­midos, tĂ­midas= adjectives
