It is helpful to memorize each noun with its corresponding article, el for masculine and la for feminine.
Another reason to memorize the gender of every noun is that there are common exceptions to the rules of gender.

English often uses definite articles (the) and indefinite articles (a, an) before nouns.
Spanish also has definite and indefinite articles—used much more!
Spanish articles vary in form because they agree in gender and number with the nouns they modify.

In order to use verbs, you will need to learn about subject pronouns.
A subject pronoun replaces the name or title of a person or thing and acts as the subject of a verb.
In both Spanish and English, subject pronouns are divided into three groups: first person, second person, and third person.

Spanish has two subject pronouns that mean you (singular).
Use tú when addressing a friend, a family member, or a child you know well—very informal
Use Usted to address a person with whom you have a formal or more distant relationship, such as a superior at work, a professor, or an older person—formal.

The masculine plural forms nosotros, vosotros, and ellos refer to a group of males or to a group of males and females.
The feminine plural forms nosotras, vosotras, and ellas can refer only to groups made up exclusively of females.
