Hi guys. I am Karin, your Spanish teacher from idiomaPRO.com,
the fastest and most fun way to learn Spanish
Today we are here in the Nouns and Genders Hospital
to learn about, well, nouns and genders. Let's go!
Well, guys, in this imaginary hospital, We are going to learn two things:
thing number one: What is a noun?
and thing number two: What is the gender of a noun?
Well, starting with the number one thing from the list, what is a noun?
Remember that nouns are simply things or people.
they can be physical or tangible things that you can see and touch,
such as a car or a beer.
But nouns also include more abstract things,
like heat and freedom.
So that's already part number one.
You already know what a noun is
But what is the gender of a noun?
Well, an important concept what you must understand in Spanish
is that every noun has a gender: masculine or feminine.
But how is it that an object or a non-living thing has a gender?
Well, it is important to highlight that the gender of a noun
normally has nothing to do with the object itself.
It is simply a way to classify nouns:
between masculine and feminine.
For example, the noun "auto" is masculine
and that's just the way it is, for no particular reason.
To understand this concept of gender better,
here we are in the Spanish Hospital of Nouns and Genders.
We go to Maternity to see how they organize
the nouns by gender in Spanish.
Now, come with me.
Normally we can see the noun's gender
based on the ending of the word.
The nouns that end in -o are masculine
and those that end in -a are usually feminine.
For example:
Say if each of the following words is masculine or feminine.
Clothes
Thing
World
Job
But what do we do with nouns that don't end in -o or -a?
Nouns ending in -aje (such as "trip")
or -or (like "terror") are masculine
and nouns that end in -ion or -dad are feminine.
Now let's do a test
to see if you're understanding up to this point.
You have to help our nurse, Laura,
organize the nouns by their gender.
Say if each of the following words
is masculine or feminine.
Cheese
Proof
Honor
Lesson
Travel
College
S, the letter S
Thursday (the day of the week)
But be careful with these rules that we just saw.
Here we have examples of nouns that do not follow the normal rules.
Some nouns, such as map, planet, system, program, day and sofa,
end in -a but they are masculine.
"Hand" is feminine even though it ends in -o.
"Moto" and "photo" are also feminine but only because they are shortened words.
You can see the full version "motorcycle" and "photography" does end in -a.
How do we know for sure what the gender of a noun is?
The best way is to look up the word in a good dictionary
and memorize the gender every time that you learn a new noun.
Start the habit now.
Your homework is to look up the following words in a dictionary
and write in the comments if they are masculine or feminine.
Thirst
Skin
Cross
Train
Melon
Level
