Words ending in A that are not feminine.

Words ending in - grama in Spanish are masculine

el programa, el pentagrama, el diagrama, el crucigrama, el telegrama, el monograma

el anagrama, el audiograma, el electrocardiograma, el encefalograma,

el ideograma,

A sentence with one of these words is welcome.
Example:

Me encanta hacer los crucigramas que aparecen en los periódicos.

Juan vio un programa sobre un chico que trató de hacer un crucigrama en forma de pentagrama pero luego se volvió loco, así que tuvieron que enviarle un telegrama a su madre para pedir permiso para probarlo con un encefalograma, un electrocardiograma y un audiograma después de que empezó a hablar solo en anagramas y a escribir solo en diagramas hechos de ideogramas que incluyeron un monograma de sus iníciales.

Juan watched a program about a boy that tried to do a pentagram-shaped crossword puzzle but then he went him crazy and so they had to send a telegram to his mother to request permission to test him with an encephalogram, an electrocardiogram and an audiogram after he began to speak only in anagrams and to write only in diagrams made of ideograms that included a monogram of his name.

As my grama said in an epigram (but not with words; it was actually a pictogram):
Como dijo mi abuela en un epigrama (pero no con palabras; fue realmente un pictograma):

Una pesadilla es una quesadilla...
con queso podrido.

-pa

Después de cenar unas pocas papas, el niño miró el mapa para averiguar cómo llegar al lugar donde iba a tocar el harpa arpa pequeña para el papa.

After dining on a few potatoes, the boy looked at the map to figure out how to get to the place where he was going to play the little harp for the pope.

El mapa- palabra masculina

El arpa- palabra femenina

La papa- palabra femenina que significa potato

El papa- palabra masculina que significa pope.

I will rehash a sentence I wrote before, as I think of more options:

Según los diagramas en el programa, la fama de la cama de la dama vestida en la piyama el pijama con las llamas hechas de escamas rojas era una rama importante de la gama de las tramas en el panorama del drama.

According to the diagrams in the program, the fame of the bed of the lady dressed in the pajamas with flames made of red scales was an important branch of the gamut of themes in the panorama of the drama.
