One Form for Both Genders

Unlike many Spanish adjectives, 'elegante' ends in '-e', meaning it describes both masculine nouns (el traje elegante) and feminine nouns (la casa elegante) without changing its ending.

Making it Plural

To describe more than one thing, simply add '-s' to the end: 'unos zapatos elegantes' (some elegant shoes).

Trying to Feminize

Mistake:La mujer elegantA.

Correction: La mujer elegante. Remember, adjectives that end in '-e' usually stay the same for both genders.
