Does mucho comebefore or after a noun

Question

Do you say "muchos datos" or "datos muchos"

Answer 1

Before. It is the same kind of adjective as numbers, where they come before the noun.

• Hay muchos datos.
• Hay siete días de la semana.

For more information on these types of adjectives and adjective placement, there is a great article here at SpanishDict.

Hope it helps!

Answer 2

I would say "muchos datos" many details but a fuller statement of context could put them in different order: Trabajo mucho or mucho trabajo both could be right but mean different things, Trabajo mucho means I work a lot whereas mucho trabajo means a lot of work.
