25

Inglés Básico

El adjetivo es el elemento que puede acompañar al sustantivo para describirlo o asignarle una cualidad. Examples: I am a teacher. (Yo soy un profesor.) You are a student. (Yo soy un estudiante.) He is tall. (El es alto.) She is beautiful. (Ella es bella.) It is good. (Eso es bueno.) We are in the living room. (Nosotros estamos en el recibo.) You are from Caracas. (Tu eres de Caracas.)

Los sustantivos en inglés pueden ser masculinos, femeninos o neutros: Son masculinos los nombres de varones y los de animales de sexo masculino Son femeninos los nombres de mujeres y los de animales de sexo femenino Son neutros los nombres de objetos inanimados El género de los sustantivos no afecta ni al artículo ni al adjetivo que los acompañan, ya que estos no varían de forma. Por ejemplo: The red car

El carro rojo

The red cars

Los carros rojos

28

Inglés Básico

Pero en cambio, si hay que tener en cuenta el género del sustantivo a la hora de sustituirlo por un pronombre personal: The boy is here

He is here

El niño está aquí

Él está aquí.

The car is big

It is big

El carro es grande Este es grande

El plural de los sustantivos se forma añadiendo "s" a la forma singular: Cat

–

Cats

Gato

–

Gatos

Dog

–

Dogs

Perro

–

Perros

Pero si el sustantivo finaliza en "o", "ch", "sh", "ss", "x", para formar el plural hay que añadir "-es": Box

–

Boxes

Caja

–

Cajas

Potato

–

Potatoes

Papa

–

Papas

Y si finaliza por "y", tras una consonante, el plural se forma eliminando esta "y" y añadiendo la terminación "-ies": Copy

–

Copies

Copia

–

Copias

Lady

–

Ladies

Dama

–

Damas

Cuando el sustantivo termina en “-f” o “-fe”, el plural se forma eliminando estas y añadiendo la terminación “ves” Wife

–

Wives

Esposa

–

Esposas

Wolf

–

Wolves

Lobo

–

Lobos

Contenido Descripción de la casa, el salón de clases, oficina, lugares, personas. Identificación de países, nacionalidades, idiomas. Relaciones familiares. Posesivos (‘s). Preguntas de información. Días de la semana, meses.

Información de la unidad En el idioma Inglés usamos adjetivos para dscribir personas, animals y cosas, ejemplo: Big (grande) Tall (alto) Blue ( azul) A diferencia del español, los adjetivos va ubicados antes del sustantivo, ejemplo: This is a beautiful house. (Esta es una casa bella.)

56

Inglés Básico

También pueden ir ubicados después del verbo, al final de una oración, ejemplo: María is intelligent. (María es inteligente.) Para indagar la procedencia de las personas se pregunta Where are you from? (¿De donde eres?) es muy importante que se use la preposición from en es6a presgunta, ya que su omisión cambiaría totalmente el significado de la misma. Ejemplo: Where are you? ( Donde estas?) Where are you from? (¿De donde eres?) El posesivo (‘s) es usado para indicar pertenencia, este se agrega al sustantivo, ejemplo: Miriam’s car. (El carro de Miriam) Podemos observar mediante el ejemplo que el sustantivo va en primer lugar y lo que se posee en segundo lugar. Es importante no confundir el posesivo (‘s) con la contracción del verbo to be, ejemplo: Miriam’s a student. ( Miriam es una estudiante. Miriam’s students (Los estudiantes de Miriam) Por otra parte si el sustantivo termina en “s” solo agregamos el apóstrofe (‘s), ejemplo: Luis’ dog. (El perro de Luis.) The students’ classrrom.
