describing people

· opis osebe
the adjective agrees with the person
Describing people brings adjective agreement (lesson 30) to life: visok (m) / visoka (f) — tall; star / stara — old; mlad / mlada — young; prijazen / prijazna — kind; lep / lepa — beautiful. The ending follows the person: brat je visok, sestra je visoka. For hair and eyes: lasje (hair), oči (eyes) — ima modre oči (has blue eyes).
Brat je visok.My brother is tall. (m)masculine
Sestra je visoka.My sister is tall. (f)feminine + -a
Ima modre oči.She has blue eyes.oči = eyes
