# Many adjectives agree with the gender of the noun
# If the dictionary lists an adjective with an -o ending (rojo, bajo, alto, corto, rubio, moreno, etc.) it probably fits the catergory
# adjectives can go in front of or after the noun; usually they go after

* la casa blanca
* the white house
* el perro rojo
* the red dog

# If the noun is plural, the adjective will agree with it

* las cervezas morenas
o A native speaker once asked someone on the web "Do you like your beer blonde (rubio) or brunette (moreno) referring to light or dark." I thought it was funny. Anyhow.
o The guy was making a joke. Dark beer is translated 'las cervezas negras'
* los perros rojos

# For an adjective that is not a/o, like grande (large/huge), the noun agrees with the singular/plural status of the noun

* la casa grande
* las casas grandes
