We have few chairs in the living room in spanish

LA SALA or LA SALA DE ESTAR are two interchangeable ways to refer to the living room in Spanish, a very important room in the house and a nice topic to learn some new vocabulary for house objects in Spanish. This lesson covers several words used in real conversations when talking about LA SALA and how you can use this vocabulary to create your own description of a room in Spanish. This lesson includes a set of interesting resources such as many audio examples, some grammar notes and interactive quizzes to practice. Let’s start…

Vocabulary Introduction: Common living room objects in Spanish

First, please take a look at two pictures rooms and use the numbers to identify the living room objects in Spanish written on the right. Notice that some of these words are actually similar to the ones in English, like SOFÁ (sofa) and LÁMPARA (lamp), which makes it easier to remember them.

Demonstrative adjectives, Articles and HAY for house objects

The first group of examples will make use of demonstrative adjectives such as “ESTE, ESE, ESTOS…” as they are often used with house objects in Spanish to indicate their location or describe them, e.g. Ese librero (that bookshelf) and Esta pintura (this paint).  Normally, we would use HAY in order to say the objects that a place has. HAY is used for both singular and plural nouns.

These sentences will use some of the vocabulary for the living room in Spanish plus basic grammatical structures such as definite and indefinite articles. If the object you want to refer to is just one and countable such as LÁMPARA or VENTANA, then use UN or UNA depending on the gender of that object (feminine/masculine), e.g. Hay una ventana en la sala.

Sentences with things in the living room in Spanish

¿Qué piensas de esta silla?

What do you think about this chair?

Me encantan los colores de estas cortinas

I love the colors of these curtains

Prefiero una pintura más relajante para nuestro cuarto

I prefer a more relaxing paint for our room

El televisor en la foto es antiguo

The television in the picture is old.

Este librero es demasiado grande para la sala

This bookcase is too big for the living room

La mesa es lo suficientemente alta para los niños.

The table is tall enough for the kids.

¿Te gusta esta alfombra o esa?

Do your like this rug or that one?

Using Quantifiers in Spanish: “pocos, pocas, muchos, muchas…”

All the previous sentences deal with singular nouns, but we often use words in plural form as well.  For countable, plural living room objects in Spanish such as “mesas”, “camas” and so on, we will need the quantifiers POCOS/POCAS (a few), MUCHOS/MUCHAS (many), VARIOS/VARIAS (several), BASTANTES (a lot), SUFICIENTES (enough) as in the sentence “Este librero tiene pocos libros”.

On the other hand, if the noun is plural and uncountable such as “agua, café, oxígeno”, then you will need to use the quantifiers POCO/POCA (a little), MUCHO/MUCHA (much), BASTANTE (a lot), SUFICIENTE (enough) without the letter -S at the end. Remember to pay attention to the gender of the object you are talking about and the type of noun (contable, no contable) so you can choose the right quantifier.

Describing a Living Room in Spanish – Describiendo la sala en español

Adjectives plus the verb SER in its form ES and SON are in used to describe almost everything in the language, e.g. LA SALA ES BONITA (the living room is beautiful). You could also talk about colors of the living room in Spanish or use specific adjectives like CLÁSICA or BONITA, for example: UNA PINTURA CLÁSICA (a classical painting). In conversations you could use expressions like SABES…” (You know…), YO CREO QUE…”(I think that), ME ENCANTA…” (I love), A MÍ ME PARECE BUENA IDEA…” (I think it is a good idea) to make your sentences sound a little more natural. Also, you can use the verbs HAY (there is/there are) and TENER (to have) to say what objects you see. Here are two descriptions of living rooms in Spanish.
