Numbers Flashcards
If a noun follows “one” or “a or an”, then use “Un or Una”, even if in English we would say “one”, you must use “un or una” in Spanish.
One flower, or a flower, both mean the same thing.
One dog, or a dog.

If the noun is known, but not specified use “uno” if unspecified noun is masculine (NEVER “un”) or “una” if feminine. In this case “uno and una” are translated as “one”.

One.
If noun is not known and not specified always use “uno”.

If noun is specified or known “one” must match in gender only. NEVER in the plural.
