2. I discover

Describe a new house using shtëpia and the adjective pair i ri/e re.

3. I understand

In real descriptions, agreement links noun and adjective: Hoteli është i ri. Shtëpia është e re. Miku im është i lodhur. Motra ime është e lodhur. The form immediately signals the gender of what is described.

Hoteli është i ri.Shtëpia është e re.Miku im është i lodhur.Motra ime është e lodhur.Libri është i bukur.Dhoma është e bukur.
