You have presumably discovered that English grammar or sentence works differently in contrast to Spanish sentence structure. Do you have problems with these rules? Don’t worry, we’ll help you.

In this article, we have summarized some very simple and basic rules so that any individual who is going to learn Spanish in Mumbai can rapidly gain proficiency with a few essential concepts of Spanish sentence structure.

  • Spanish Grammar Rule- 1

Adjectives and Adverbs

Make sure you use adjectives and adverbs correctly while making any sentence in Spanish. Basically, adjectives describe people or things and usually come before a noun. They can not change if the noun is plural. Adverbs modify verbs, adjectives and other adverbs and usually come after the verb. For example:

He’s a slow driver. (Adjective)

He drives slowly. (Adverb)

Most adverbs are created by adding -ly to an adjective like in the example, but some adverbs are irregular, like:

Slow (adjective) – Slowly (adverb)

Quick (adjective) – Quickly (adverb)

Apparent (adjective) – Apparently (adverb)

For example, Your English is good. You speak English well.

  • Spanish Grammar Rule- 2

You Should Have Correct Conjugation of The Verb According To The Subject

You should always keep the subject of the sentence in mind when using verbs in English because speaking of singular subjects (he/she) is not the same as speaking of plural subjects (they/we).

For example in present simple:

Correct- She has two cats

Incorrect- She have two cats

  • Spanish Grammar Rule- 3

The Spanish alphabet is the same as the English alphabet plus the letter Ñ

English has 26 letters that make up the alphabet. In Spanish, there is one more letter, the “Ñ”, which does not exist in English.

In English, the sound is similar to “nyh”.

Example:

Brother-in-law (koo-nyah-doh) (brother-in-law)

Tomorrow (mah-nyah-nah) (tomorrow)

Girl (nee-nyah) (girl)

Position in the alphabet: It comes after the “N”.

That is to say, Spaniards speak forming words with 27 letters and 5 compositions of two letters (or digraphs)

A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, Ñ, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z (27 characters in total).

The digraphs are: CH / LL / GU / QU / RR

  • Spanish Grammar Rule- 4

Vowels Can Be Stressed

á, é, í, ó, ú (Á, É, Í, Ó, Ú)

However, the pronunciation itself is the same as that of a normal vowel.

So don’t forget, when writing Spanish, vowels sometimes have accents.

  • Spanish Grammar Rule- 5

Verbs Change Form Depending On The Subject

Example: in the case of the verb ‘comer’ (To eat)

– I eat- Yo como

– You eat- Tú comes

– He eats- Él come

– We eat- Nosotros comemos

– You (plural) eat- Vosotros coméis

– They eat- Ellos comen

Remember, in Spanish, the subject changes the form of the verb.

Conclusion

Having knowledge of Spanish Grammar helps you make sentences nicely. If you are learning Spanish language then you have to focus on Spanish grammar and practice it regularly for 20-30 minutes a day for a month. Moreover, you can also join a Spanish institute in Mumbai to attend Spanish classes in Mumbai to make yourself immerse in Spanish grammar.
