Usage notes edit
- Feminine nouns beginning with stressed /ˈa/ like this one regularly take the singular articles el and un, usually reserved for masculine nouns.
- el ágora, un ágora
- They maintain the usual feminine singular articles la and una if an adjective intervenes between the article and the noun.
