Exemples de phrases

El cabello negro y largo de mi hermana es muy hermoso.

My sister's long black hair is very beautiful. (The masculine article 'el' and adjectives 'negro' and 'largo' agree with 'cabello,' showing that we're referring to hair as a singular noun concept, not the individual strands.)

El cabello rizado que encontré en el peine es del gato, no mío.

The curly hair that I found in the comb is from the cat, not mine. (The masculine adjective 'rizado' must agree with the masculine noun 'cabello,' distinguishing it from 'una cabellera rizada' which would refer to an entire head of hair as a feminine collective noun.)
