### Invariable Adjectives Ending in -e

Normally in Danish, adjectives change to match a noun's gender, number, and definiteness (usually adding a *-t* for neuter and an *-e* for plural or definite nouns). However, **adjectives that already end in an unstressed *-e* never change**.

Whether describing a common, neuter, plural, or definite noun, these adjectives stay exactly the same. Words like *indre* (inner) and *ydre* (outer) belong to this group. 

Notice how *indre* takes no *-t* even when describing the neuter noun *liv* (life):

Here is *ydre* used in a definite phrase (*det ydre udseende*), remaining unchanged:

{{item:1215877}}

### Adjectives Ending in -ende

This zero-inflection rule is especially useful for adjectives ending in *-ende* (which often translate to English "-ing" words). Words like *dominerende* (dominating), *tiltrækkende* (attractive), and *beskyttende* (protective) are entirely invariable.

Used with a neuter noun (*et stjernetegn*), *tiltrækkende* takes no *-t*:

{{item:1215874}}

Used with a plural definite noun (*de ... planeter*), *dominerende* does not take an extra *-e*:

{{item:1215872}}

And here is *beskyttende* with a common noun (*en ... personlighed*):
