Cristina y Lucía son ________. Cristina and Lucía are slim. (HINT: Cristina and Lucía are female names)

I understand that plural feminine should be -as and plural masculine should be -os... The hint that they are feminine names made me opt for Delgadas but the answer was Delgado's... Why?

This question relates to:Spanish lesson "Forming regular plural masculine and feminine adjectives in Spanish "

Hola Daniel

I think you may be misinterpreting our feedback from your initial test. You marked as correct one of the incorrect answers "delgados", showing a cross in a red circle, and also showing that the correct answer is "delgadas" with a green tick.

I hope it clarified it.

Saludos

« For me:- Too fast. Can pause but not go back. Better if story scrolled while audio control remained static. Great concept. :-)Why couldn't you say (for example) "Il nous trouve être ennuyeux"? »
