Questions & Answers about Me encantan los documentales de animales.
Why is it encantan with an 'n' at the end instead of just encanta?
In English we say 'I love documentaries' without 'the'. Why does this sentence use los?
In Spanish, when you express a general like or dislike, you must use the definite article (el, la, los, or las) before the noun. Because you are talking about documentaries as a general category, you need los.
Could I use sobre instead of de to mean 'about' here?
What is the singular form of los documentales, and what is its gender?
The singular is el documental, which is a masculine noun. Because it ends in a consonant (-l), you form the plural by adding -es, making it los documentales.
