Lesson 1.12- Clothing and the Present Progressive Tense

Lesson 1.12- Clothing and the Present Progressive Tense

0
votes

In lesson 1.12 , there was a practice example of how to conjugate llevar, which is to wear, to llevando and stuffs. In one of these examples there was a picture with a guy wearing a sweatshirt where I should conjugate the estar to the yo form, and lleavar to its rightful conjugation, along with the una sudadera as the correct translation of the sweatshirt.

My question : Out of curiosity, I searched the meaning of the word "sudadero" which literally means the same as "sudadera", but why in this case did they use sudadera instead of sudadero, since I reckon the subject of this picture is a guy wearing a sweatshirt, so why the feminine form??

Sorry, but one more thing, when adding an adjective before a noun, how do we make sure to put the adjective BEFORE the noun or AFTER the noun? - MeLlamoAndreas, Jun 28, 2013
I´ve placed this in the Website category. More than likely this was an oversight and will be fixed the next time the video lessons are updated. Please be aware the updates to the videos are not at all immediate. - bandit51jd, Jun 28, 2013
If you know the spot where the possible error is occuring, if you pause the video and mouse over that spot a number will appear. Can you share that number? It makes it easier for the engineers to find the possible error. - bandit51jd, Jun 28, 2013

Some adjectives are allowed to go before the noun in Spanish. Are these the ones you are referring to?

Examples:
el buen hijo - the good son
la mala hija - the bad daughter
