Content
Thenouns They are the kind of words that give names or identify all the things that we know. For example: shoe, yard, Juan.
It is a central category in the language, since together with the verbs they are the lexical elements with full semantic content. Adjectives are also lexemes with semantic content, but they only make sense if they can be associated with a noun.

Nouns are typically the nucleus of the subject in the bimembre sentence, but they also appear frequently in other phrases within the sentence, such as a direct object or a circumstantial complement, they are usually the nuclei of those complementary phrases. Nominal single-member sentences also have one or more nouns as their syntactic nucleus.
Nouns are variable in terms of number (in most cases) and have an arbitrarily determined gender, which appears in dictionaries and must be taken into account to correctly formulate a sentence that includes modifiers (such as articles or adjectives ).
