Do you alter it to os or es at the end, when replacing the a?

Answer 1

Many professions are invariable. For example: dentista stays dentista whether it is masculine or feminine. The plural then for both masculine and feminine is dentistas.

But as Jubilado says, some examples would be nice.

Hello Andygb

Welcome to the SpanishDict forum.

You asked about:

I would strongly recommend that you take a look at these 2 topics in our grammar section. which directly relate to your question. I hope that they will prove helpful! Please follow these 2 links:

2.Plural forms of nouns: :enter link description here

As Matt D correctly says, there are feminine nouns relating to professions that do not change their endings; these include, for example:

receptionist = el / la recepcionista and police officer = el/la policía (o el/la agente de policía)

I hope this helps
