¿Cómo hablar de personas en general usando inglés?
Hablar de personas en términos generales es una habilidad lingüística valiosa que añade profundidad y estilo a nuestro inglés. Aunque no es una construcción que se use a diario, resulta útil y muestra dominio del idioma. Al usar el artículo "the" más un adjetivo, podemos referirnos a grupos de personas sin nombrar directamente "gente". ¡Veamos cómo hacerlo!
¿Cuál es la estructura básica para generalizar?
La fórmula básica para hacer generalizaciones en inglés es utilizar el artículo "the" seguido de un adjetivo. Por ejemplo:
- "The rich enjoy better life quality than the poor" (Los ricos disfrutan de una mejor calidad de vida que los pobres).
Esto también puede expresarse como:
- "Rich people enjoy better life quality than poor people" (La gente rica disfruta de una mejor calidad de vida que la gente pobre).
Ambas formas son correctas, sin embargo, la primera opción es una manera concisa y formal de hablar.
¿Cómo generalizamos usando nacionalidades?
Los adjetivos de nacionalidades se pueden usar con el artículo "the" para referirse al grupo de personas de un país. Cuando estas palabras terminan en -sh, -ch, -ese o -ss, es requerido antecederlas por "the":
- "The Dutch" (Los holandeses) para referirse a la gente de Holanda.
- "The Swiss" (Los suizos) para la gente de Suiza.
- "The Japanese" (Los japoneses) para las personas de Japón.
En estos casos, puede omitirse la palabra "people" (gente) porque se sobreentiende.
Para nacionalidades con terminaciones diferentes, "the" es opcional:
- "The Colombians are well known for their dancing skills" (Los colombianos son bien conocidos por sus habilidades de baile).
- También puedes decir simplemente: "Colombians are well known for their dancing skills" (Colombianos son bien conocidos por sus habilidades de baile).
¿Cómo practicar estas estructuras?
Practicar estas estructuras requiere tiempo y repetición. Aquí te proponemos algunos ejercicios para practicar:
-
Completa las siguientes frases con los adjetivos mencionados:
- French (francés), young (joven), disabled (discapacitado), unprivileged (no privilegiado).
-
Intenta crear tus propias oraciones usando adjetivos y nacionalidades para ampliar tu comprensión:
- "The young are the future of humanity" (Los jóvenes son el futuro de la humanidad).
- "This is a special parking lot for the disabled" (Este es un parqueadero especial para discapacitados).
Te animamos a que sigas practicando esta estructura para mejorar tu habilidad de comunicación en inglés. ¡Recuerda siempre compartir tus ejemplos y aprender de comentarios constructivos! Nos vemos en la próxima clase.

No siempre que no se use "the" se debe usar el plural. En el caso de nacionalidades, si no terminan en -sh, -ch, -ese o -ss, se puede omitir "the" y usar el plural. Por ejemplo, "Colombians" es correcto sin "the". Sin embargo, hay casos donde se usa el singular o plural dependiendo del contexto. Es importante practicar y familiarizarse con estas reglas para mejorar tu fluidez.
Argentinians are friendly and passionate people.
the young are the future of humanity
i volunteer providing for the unprivileged

Yes, you can say "The youth are the future of humanity." In this case, "youth" serves as a collective noun to refer to young people in general, making it appropriate to use with "the" for generalizations. Just like in the examples discussed in the class, using "the" plus an adjective is a valid structure for making generalizations. Keep practicing, and you'll get even better at making these kinds of statements!
1. The educated contribute significantly to society with their knowledge and experience.
2. Many organizations are working to support The elderly.
3. The Wealthy often have access to high-quality education and healthcare.
4. The unemployed sometimes face challenges in finding stable jobs.
The Colombians are passionate about dancing and enjoy the life in each party
📝 Here are my notes about the class
**The + adjective**
When we combine the article “the” following by an “adjective” we can talk about people in general terms.
📢 Using it it’s very unusual, but it sound a bit more formal.
**Examples**
* **The rich** enjoy better life quality than the poor.
* **Rich people** enjoy better life quality than **poor people**.
**The + Nationalities**
Other generalization is using Nationalities as adjectives; but there are some rules we must follow:
* Nationality adjectives ending in “-sh”, “ch”, “-ese” or “-ss” 🔸 The Dutch, the Swiss, the Chinese.
* With other nationalities, we can only use the plural form. 🔸 (The) Colombians, (the) Italians.
**examples**
* **The French** are considered great artists.
* **The Japanese** are very disciplined.
