Nueva película Vs Película nueva
Is there any difference in meaning between the two sets of Spanish sentences below? Are they both grammatically correct? If so, which one is more natural?
I went to see the new James Bond movie on Saturday night. • Fui a ver la nueva película de James Bond el sábado por la noche. • Fui a ver la película nueva de James Bond el sábado por la noche. I’m going to buy a new red t-shirt tomorrow. • Voy a comprar una nueva camiseta roja mañana. • Voy a comprar una camiseta nueva y roja mañana. Many thanks in advance. |

camiseta roja (no need to add "new") camiseta roja nueva (maybe intended to replace an old one) nueva camiseta roja (only correct as something like "yet another new red t-shirt", with "nueva" closer to "again" and used to single it out) camiseta nueva y roja (only and just only correct when the speech needs to show it as opposed to a second-hand non-red t-shirt) adjective + noun ---> meant to be general or to affect all the elements described by the noun: viejos árboles (all the trees are old) dos pesos noun + adjective ---> meant to be specific or descriptive árboles viejos (the old ones among all trees) camiseta roja (as opposed to "camiseta azul") use of "y" nueva camiseta roja de algodón camiseta Supermarca original camiseta roja y original (two mismatching qualifiers) camiseta de algodón, roja, talle 42, con detalles bordados y que no destiña (multiple qualifiers or qualifiers using adjectival phrases)
