ágora

ágora f (plural ágoras)

1. agora (Ancient Greek marketplace)

From Ancient Greek ἀγορά (agorá, “assembly, place of assembly, market”), from ἀγείρω (ageírō, “I gather”).

• IPA^(key): /ˈaɡoɾa/, [ˈaɣoɾa]

ágora f (plural ágoras)

1. (historical) agora

• The feminine noun ágora is like other feminine nouns starting with a stressed a sound in that it takes the definite article el (normally reserved for masculine nouns) in the singular when there is no intervening adjective:

el ágora

• However, if an adjective, even one that begins with a stressed a sound such as alta or ancha, intervenes between the article and the noun, the article reverts to la.
