R I’m sure you guessed that the adjective was blanco / blanca and blancos / blancas. It means white and the feminine version ends in -a. The plural version ends in -s.
But did you notice that in Spanish we put the adjective after the noun, whereas in English it goes before the noun?
Two green tortoises / Dos tortugas verdes.
In Spanish, the masculine word for yellow is amarillo.How would you say a yellow tortoise? And how would you say three red parrots?
Una tortuga amarilla. Tres loros rojos.
A white snake / Una serpiente blanca.
