This works in French, too (l'avion - m.). But if this is what my teacher had in mind as an 'exception', then me thinks she cheated a little. I was thinking more of -tion, -sion, -nion words. Mais attention! Je viens de découvirir le mot "le dominion"! C'en a fait une alors :) (This doesn't work in Spanish where it's "el dominio"). Kou
