Most of the time grammar comes after 'common sense" which is inevitable. We only pinpoint grammar errors when we don't understand the statement. So the easiest way to know if the sentence makes sense is to check if in all time subject agrees to its predicate or supporting details. the fundamentals seek advice from sentence structure and elements of speech, that are noun, pronoun, verb, adjective, adverb, preposition and conjunction.

Adjectives are being adapted to their grammatical category. The grammar rules mainly only apply to a formal conversation it does not apply to the informal conversation. the grammar rules errors are only pinpointed when only we don't understand the sentence or it does not make any sense.

In Spanish articles like el, la, los, las must agree in number and gender with the noun that follows them or adjective. For example, a male article like "el" must be followed by a male adjective or a male noun. Otherwise the sentence would be incorrect as in the following example:

1 - * El bonita.

2 - * El gata.

As you can see both sentences are incorrect because the noun doesn't agree in gender with their article. So the correct way to say it would be: "la bonita", "el bonito", "el gato", "la gata". The same happens with the number. If the article does not agree in number with the noun or adjective, the result would be an incorret sentence as in the following example:

1. * Los gato.

2. * El gatos.

As you can see, in this example the article does not agree in number with the noun. So the correct way to say it would be: "Los gatos", "el gato".

It is possible to set some grammar rules in Spanish language. for example:

- Every sentence need a Subject + a verb that correspond to each other  

Pedro escribe cartas de Amor

- Adjectives come AFTER the noun.

chica Rubio

- to make a negative sentence, you need the word NO before the verb.

- ellos no van a la fiesta
