mateixos

Mateixos is a Catalan term that functions as the masculine plural form of the adjective mateix, meaning “the same” or “identical” when agreeing with masculine plural nouns. It is part of standard Catalan grammar and illustrates how the language marks gender and number in adjectives. The plural form mateixos is produced by adding the suffix -os to the stem of mateix, resulting in a word that accompanies masculine plural nouns (for example, in contexts referring to multiple items that share identity or characteristics).

In typical usage, mateixos serves to indicate sameness or equivalence among several referenced elements. It appears in formal, academic, and everyday Catalan prose, reflecting the consensus rules of agreement that govern Catalan adjectives.

As a standalone entry, mateixos does not correspond to a widely recognized place, organization, or concept in major reference works. It is primarily encountered as a grammatical form rather than as a proper noun. There is no well-established geographic entity or brand known by the name Mateixos, and it is not notable as a surname in standard reference sources.

In linguistic discussions, mateixos is cited when describing determiner-adjective agreement and the formation of plurals in Catalan. For learners, it serves as an example of how Catalan adjectives adapt to gender and number, and how they align with the nouns they modify.
