Frequently Asked Questions
Does 'lógico' ever change form?
Yes, absolutely! It is a regular describing word (adjective), so it must change its ending to match the thing it is describing: 'lógico' (masculine singular), 'lógica' (feminine singular), 'lógicos' (masculine plural), and 'lógicas' (feminine plural).
Why is 'lógico' used with 'ser' and not 'estar'?
'Lógico' describes a fixed quality of a person, idea, or situation—whether it makes sense or not. Since it describes a fundamental nature, it uses 'ser' (Es lógico), which is reserved for permanent or defining characteristics.
