Spanish Agreement: Concordancia: Las matemáticas y el cálculo son muy importantes
Pronunciation:Cohn-cohr-dahn-ceeah
Translation:Mathematics and calculus are very important
Function:Agreement
Agreement in Spanish can turn very tricky when talking about several subjects. Which one to follow if one is masculine and the other feminine? How about when one is in singular and the other ones in plural?
The rule of thumb: put the masculine at the end and use the verb plural form, as above.
Example:Me interesan la cultura y el arte españoles.
Translation:I am interested in the Spanish culture and art
