USING A NOUN TO MODIFY ANOTHER NOUN
A.Read the information under Exploración del Lenguaje on page 130 in your textbook. Then fill in
the blanks with the correct information.
In English, one noun is often used to describe another noun: vegetable
soup, strawberry yogurt. In these 2 English examples, the noun that is
being described comes _______________.
However, in Spanish, the noun that is being described comes________
and is followed by ________________.
Examples: la sopa ______________________________
el yogur _____________________________________
In Spanish you do NOT use a ________________________ in front
of the second noun.
The form of the noun following de does not change even when the first
noun becomes plural:
el sandwich de jamón
los sandwiches de jamón
