    Suffix -a mostly female, Suffix -al mostly male. There are exceptions but it’s a good rule of thumb.

      And then you get - el agua

      Feminine. With feminine adjectives. El agua clara. But you have to use “El”.

      Spanish is still way more consistent than English tho

        Yeah like I said mostly haha. ^^ Same with el problema, etc. There’s probably a nice ethymological explanation to memorize them better but in the end you have to deal with irregularities in any language except maybe Esperanto or some other artificial ones.
