For anyone who's taken a foreign language like Spanish or Italian & i'm assuming French too, all the adjectives for feminine nouns usually end with an a too... ie una chica buena is 'a good girl' and un chico bueno is 'a good boy'

Its a language rule in many of the romance languages. Isn't that right? corect me if i'm wrong
You're right. Another way I learned it is that the men always stare at the ladies knees-- women=Alum-KNEE (alumnae)
