Comment l'utiliser
The adjective sarkans is used just like in English to describe something that is red. For example, sarkana mašīna (a red car) or sarkans ābols (a red apple).
A common mistake is forgetting that Latvian adjectives, including sarkans, change their endings depending on the gender, number, and case of the noun they describe. So, while sarkans is the masculine singular nominative form, you'll see variations like sarkana (feminine singular nominative) or sarkanās (feminine plural genitive). Always pay attention to the noun's form!
