In my high school freshman class yesterday someone asked me about alma and we went thru a bunch of words that are feminine, but use masculine articles...they were the ones bringing up the topic because they had just heard the David Bisbal song Buler�a, which had captivated them and they heard the expression "Buler�a, buler�a tan dentro del alma m� a ...I was so impressed that they even noticed this...focusing on grammar instead of the song  |

hey marcela, teenagers paying attention to grammar  what is this world coming to  and a twist on this topic. i find the word "v�ctima" interesting as even if the victim is a male, it is still "la v�ctima". just a coincidence or a sexist comment on the "weaker sex" saludos, jer... (who may just have tore the hell out of the lid on that can-o-worms :jeje:

For the Spanish words ending in "-ma" but having masculine articles, I was taught that they were of Greek origin...but I'm not sure why that would cause the gender/article conflict... el tema el idioma el diagrama el programa el problema el sistema etc. Paul
