Questions & Answers about La lavanda pura está en el gotero.
Why do we use está instead of es in this sentence?
Why does pura come after lavanda?
In Spanish, adjectives that describe a distinguishing physical trait usually come right after the noun. Here, pura (pure) tells us exactly what kind of lavender it is, distinguishing it from mixed or diluted lavender.
Is there a trick to remembering the word gotero?
Yes! It comes from the word gota, which means a drop of liquid. The ending -ero is often added to nouns to create a word for a container or tool associated with that noun. So, a tool for drops becomes a gotero (dropper).
