To determine if the noun-adjective agreement is correct in the sentence "El chico es alto," we need to understand the rules of agreement in Spanish.
In Spanish, nouns and adjectives must agree in gender and number. Gender refers to whether the noun is masculine or feminine, and number refers to whether the noun is singular or plural.
In the sentence "El chico es alto," the noun "chico" (meaning "boy") is masculine singular, and the adjective "alto" (meaning "tall") is also masculine singular. Since both the noun and the adjective agree in gender and number, the noun-adjective agreement is correct in this sentence.
Therefore, the answer is: Correct.
