? Adjectives that end in -e and most adjectives that end in a consonant have the same masculine and feminine forms.

?l es trabajador.

Ella es trabajadora.

Number and adjective agreement ? Singular adjectives describe one person. Plural adjectives describe more than one.

? If the singular form ends in a vowel, add -s to make it plural: altos. ? If the singular form ends in a consonant, add -es to make it plural: intelectuales. ? Describe mixed groups with masculine plural forms: Pablo y Sarita son c?micos.
