When an adjective precedes the noun it modifies, it takes an ending. The form of the ending depends upon several factors: the gender and case of the noun, and the type of word which precedes the adjective-noun combination.
|
Sie sehen das schöne Haus an. Sie wollen ein schönes Haus haben. Sie bauen schöne Häuser. |
They look at the beautiful house. They want to have a beautiful house. They build beautiful houses. |
Predicate adjectives do not take an ending.
| Das Haus ist schön. | The house is beautiful. |
