English adjectives having an -ic at their end also have the same meaning in Spanish if an 'o' is placed after the -ic
. For instance, the word fantastico means fantastic. The same rule holds true for words that end with an -id, like rapid, which would be rapido in Spanish. While this might not seem like a convenient manner to get acquainted with the language, the major benefit in this case is that one can build a sound understanding and then take it further from there.
