Basic rules for adjective endings:
• As soon as an adjective PRECEDES a noun, it MUST have some ending.
• Articles have “first dibs” on the above primary endings.
• If the article can’t have the above ending, as is the case e.g. with “ein_ Auto”
(and NOT eines Auto!), it then goes on the adjective.
