Notes

In Spanish, the the descriptor typically comes after the object, but there are some exceptions and differences. If grande (large/grand) comes before the object, it becomes gran. Things dealing with time can usually come before the object too.

Spanish is a very gendered language. Everything must match in gender and number, for example, there's "Tengo demasiadas manzanas." (I have many apples.) Objects do not change gender. But, the word demasiadas did. If the sentence was "Tengo demasiados maridos" (I have many husbands), then demasiadas would become demasiados since the object is masculine and plural.

Spanish has prepositions, in which the order is O (object) - S (subject) - V (verb). The ending object moves to the beginning, it only works if the object is a secondary subject (he/she/they/etc). Although, tu, nosotros, etc. do not move to the beginning. These prepositions take on a different form. Amo is I love, it's not tu amo, but te amo. Te = you (prepositional form)
