Why is the word "agua" not feminine?
Again why is the word agua not feminine according to the rules described in 1.3 Food and Articles under the Watch tab. Agua fits the feminine and singular rules so it should be la agua?

agua is irregular and is masculine because el agua seperates the two sounds better than la agua
El agua fría
