Abstract and everyday nouns — la palabra (word), la frase (phrase/sentence), la ayuda (help), la revista (magazine), la página (page), el sol (sun), el país (country), la cabeza (head/mind), el padre (father), el jefe (boss). A mix of abstract and concrete nouns for real conversation.
🔧
Key gender pairs and exceptions — el jefe / la jefa (boss), el padre / la madre (father/mother) — note: the feminine of padre is the completely different word madre, not la padre. La cabeza appears in many idioms: me duele la cabeza, perder la cabeza (to lose your mind), tener la cabeza en las nubes.
