Nouns beginning with a, ha • Feminine nouns that begin with a stressed a or the silent h followed by a stressed a take the masculine definite article el or the indefinite article un. • The reason such nouns take the articles el and un is that it would be difficult to pronounce the two vowels – la a, una a together. • Since the nouns are feminine, the plural articles las and unasare used and any adjective modifying the noun is in the feminine form.

  4. Feminine nouns El aguaes potable. Las aguasturbulentas del mar puedenserpeligrosas.

  5. Irregular Nouns • There are several nouns in Spanish that end in –a but are masculine. • These are nouns derived from Greek roots. • They take the definite article el and the indefinite article un. • el clima el mapa el programa • el día el planeta el sistema • el drama el poema el tema
