  3. ADJECTIVE AGREEMENT: If an adjective ends in O, A, OS or AS then it will have four forms and the form that you use in any given sentence must agree with the noun that it modifies. nuestro (m/s) nuestra (f/s) nuestros (m/p) nuestras (f/p)

  4. ADJECTIVE AGREEMENT: If an adjective ends in something other than O, A, OS or AS, then it will have only two forms – singular and plural. su (s) sus (p)
