You spelled the masculine form correctly in the title, but the feminine form incorrectly in the description - 0074b507, Aug 24, 2010

en ingles por favor - kandyqueen15, Aug 24, 2010
It is "colombianas", with "o" y without "u". It is the country, not the place in North America - lazarus1907, Aug 24, 2010

In English, both Colombia and Columbia are pronounced the same (/k??l?mbi?/), but the version with "u" is the English spelling, which is not used in Spanish, where those two spellings have two distinct pronunciations.

Me saca la piedra...is that idiom in our phrasebook? - 0074b507, Aug 24, 2010
No sé, no creo... ¿Quieres añadirlo? - LuisaGomezBartle, Aug 24, 2010
Hay que tener paciencia porque la mayoría de los estadounidenses no puede puntar a su propio país en un mapa y mucho menos escribir el nombre de otro país. - KevinB, Aug 24, 2010

Is this a person from the states? Like South Carolina? If it is from the country, it is not with a "u". - LuisaGomezBartle, Aug 24, 2010

Oh, I thought you needed it is Spanish. In English it is just Colombian, no gender distinction... Colombian women, Colombian girls, she is Colombian.

You should fill out your profile so that we know your language preference and expertise.

Hope this helps.
