"un ziar"

Translation: a newspaper

[JOKOJOKO83]

"Ziar" sounds like "diary" to me... Is that its origin?

[AndreiChichizola]

I want to know its origin too

[Greenedog]

Why is it this answer and not the other?

[Ray56858]

because "carte" is feminine and requires an "o" instead of an "un"

[Alice982964]

But how can we tell if it's feminine or masculine when it comes to an object?
