Question

Which adjective should be used in front of the noun “día”?

“Espero que tengas un __________ día.”

Answer

The noun “día” is masculine and singular. Whenever the adjective “bueno” is directly in front of a masculine/singular noun, it is shortened to “buen.” Bien is an adverb.

Question

Fill in the blank with the correct answer.

Esta cama es __________ que esa cama.

Answer

The correct answer is "peor." "Peor" is the comparative version of the adjective "mal," so "más mal" and "más peor" cannot exist in Spanish. Likewise because of the context, "la peor;" "the worst" cannot be used in a comparison, only as a superlative. "Peor" is an adjective that does not change based on gender, so "peora" is also wrong.

Question

Which of the following words would NOT be used to describe “las ventanas”?

Answer

Las ventanas means “windows” in English; therefore, abiertas (open), cerradas (closed), and rotas (broken) could all be used to describe windows. Graciosas (funny) is an adjective more commonly used to describe people.

Question

Which adjective, when used in the blank, creates a logical and grammatically correct sentence?

Los platos están __________, pues hay que lavarlos.

Answer

The correct answer is "sucios" (dirty) because it agrees in number and gender with "los platos" and because it makes sense in context. The answer choice "rotos" (broken) wouldn't make sense because there's no reason to wash broken plates.

English translation: "The plates are dirty, so one must wash them."

Question

Which adjective properly completes the sentence?

No tengo hermanos; soy un hijo _______.

Answer

Both "único" (only) and "segundo" (second) agree in number and gender with "hijo;" however, only "único" (only) fits in context, as it would not make sense for someone to say that they are an "hijo segundo" (second child) if that person is claiming not to have any siblings.

English translation: "I do not have siblings; I am an only child."

Question

Which adjective properly completes the sentence?

El dispositivo electrónico no está cargando; me parece que estar __________.

Answer

Based on context, only "roto," which means broken, would fit in this sentence. "Calificado" means qualified or proven, "maltratado" means mistreated or abused, and "involucrado" means involved (in something).

English translation: "The electronic device is not charging; it seems to me that it is broken."
