el alfombra o la alfombra Hola Italki amigos, I came across certain words in spanish like alfombra and almohada with la as the article. I thought when a feminine noun begins with a you should el with it to avoid the tow a sounds coming together unless you place an adjective between them. So my question is using la in front of certain words like la alfombra and la almohada ok and if so why. Muchas gracias.
