The Italian word of the week: “problema”

-->

The Italian word problema means problem, question, case.

I would like to call your attention on this word that ends in “-a” but it’s a masculine word. We say il problema and not la problema, and in plural “-a” changes in “-i, it means

il problema - i problemi

Do you konw other words that are belong to the same group?
