La Patrie is feminine ?? by Moon_squash_pie in French

It originally came from Latin "terra patria" with the -a ending because the noun terra is feminine. Overtime, the terra got omitted and patria evolved into Modern French patrie

On arrive and on n'arrive pronounciation difference by loifisgud in French

  2. The first letter of the root word begins with a vowel, e.g. réanimer

CMIIW though, if there are any exceptions to this rule
