Questions & Answers about El análisis confirmó el dopaje del atleta.
Why does it say del atleta if the word ends in -a?
Atleta is an invariable noun, meaning the word itself doesn't change endings to show gender. Since the sentence refers to a male athlete, it uses the masculine article el, which merges with the preposition de to form the contraction del. If the sentence were about a female athlete, it would be de la atleta.
Is dopaje just the English word "doping" adapted into Spanish?
How do you make a word like análisis plural?
If I wanted to add a result, like "Consequently, he was disqualified," how would I use this lesson's connectors here?
