In this case, they use the masculine one: "mon amie" and not *"ma amie", to prevent the colliding of two identical vowels. This is called "euphonics".
The same thing occurs in Spanish with the singular definite article: they say "el agua", "el águila", even being both nouns feminine. | | | 20 August 2007 22:45 | | | So it would be 'amiga', wouldn't? | | | 20 August 2007 22:49 | | goncinNumber of messages: 3706 | It is, indeed. I don't know why French people concerns so much writing differently what is pronounced the same way... :/ | | | 21 August 2007 00:57 | | guilonNumber of messages: 1549 | But in Spanish it doesn't apply to every feminine noun beginning by an "a", it only applies if the "a" is stressed.
