arpa eólica f (plural arpas eólicas)

  1. aeolian harp

Usage notes
  • The feminine noun arpa eólica is like other feminine nouns starting with a stressed /a/ sound in that it takes the articles el and un (normally reserved for masculine nouns) in the singular when there is no intervening adjective:
el arpa eólica
un arpa eólica
  • However, if an adjective, even one that begins with stressed /a/ such as alta or ancha, intervenes between the article and the noun, the article reverts to la or una.
