Recursos

Si te interesa aumentar tu vocabulario en inglés, te vamos a enseñar una grandiosa táctica. Se llama crear adjetivos a partir de sustantivos. Pero primero recordemos primero qué son los adjetivos y los sustantivos.

  • Adjetivos: palabras que describen características de un sustantivo.
  • Sustantivo: palabras que designan personas, animales, cosas, ideas, etc.

Mira la imagen e intenta reconocer todos los sustantivos que encuentres. Por ejemplo, car (auto), hands (manos), book (libro), goggles (lentes), etc.

Ahora vuelve a mirar la imagen y nombra un adjetivo por cada sustantivo que encontraste. Por ejemplo: black car (auto negro), dirty hands (manos sucias), interesting book (libro interesante), nice glasses (lentes bonitos), etc.

Cómo crear adjetivos a partir de sufijos

Presta atención a la siguiente tabla en la que encontrarás cómo puedes ir añadiendo unos sufijos a sustantivos normales, los convertimos en adjetivos. Muchos parecidos a los que usamos en español.
