Grammar / Articles

Like English, Spanish has two types of articles, definite (the) and indefinite (a). However, unlike English, Spanish articles also have gender and plurality which "agree" with what they refer to in terms of both number (singular/plural) and gender (masculine/feminine). Thus whereas in English the article in the girl and the cats are the same, in Spanish it would be la niña and los gatos.
