3. Adjectives to describe people
The following are adjectives we often use to describe people. Look through them and write the meaning
in English for each one. Here are a few additional ones that you may use as well.

flaco cómico interesante (interesting)
bonita organizado divertido (fun)
guapo desorganizado extraño (weird)
feo inteligente loco (crazy)
joven perezoso aburrido (boring)

moreno simpático
Remember, when you use an adjective to describe someone in a sentence, you must make sure the
adjective agrees with the subject.
For example:
1. Ella es honesta.
We must change the ending of honesto to honesta because the subject is female.
2. Nosotros somos flacos.
We must change the ending of flaco to flacos because the subject is plural.
