Questions & Answers about El abuelo prepara un desayuno delicioso.
Why does the sentence use "El abuelo" instead of "La abuelo"?
"Abuelo" is the masculine form meaning "grandfather" in Spanish. Using "La abuelo" would be incorrect because "abuelo" is not a feminine noun; the feminine equivalent is "abuela" (meaning "grandmother").
What tense is the verb "prepara"?
The verb "prepara" is in the present tense, third-person singular form of the verb "preparar". It indicates that the grandfather is preparing or makes a delicious breakfast as a habitual or current action.
Why do we use "un" instead of "una" for "desayuno"?
In Spanish, "desayuno" is a masculine noun, so the indefinite article "un" is required. If it were a feminine noun, we would use "una".
Why is "delicioso" placed after "desayuno"?
In Spanish, descriptive adjectives like "delicioso" typically come after the noun they describe (though there are exceptions). Saying "un delicioso desayuno" is also grammatically valid, but placing the adjective after the noun is often the default structure in Spanish.
Is the adjective "delicioso" masculine or feminine?
"Delicioso" is in its masculine form to agree with the masculine noun "desayuno". If the noun were feminine (for example, "la comida"), you would say "deliciosa".
