#Arago
- Arago — The reference name of François Arago (1786–1853), a famous French physicist, astronomer, and politician, who made foundational contributions to optics, magnetism, and electromagnetism, demonstrating the wave nature of light. His name became a scientific eponym of major significance, assigned to a lunar crater, a Martian crater, an asteroid, a ring of Neptune, as well as multiple global academic institutions.
- Aragon — An autonomous community located in northeastern Spain, historically corresponding to the ancient Kingdom of Aragon, which played a central geopolitical role in the medieval period and the unification of the Iberian Peninsula. In world literary history, the name is also closely linked to the French writer Louis Aragon (1897–1982), a major figure of surrealism and socialist realism.
- Aragonese — Pertaining to Aragon, its native population within this Spanish autonomous community, or their language. As a noun, it denotes a native inhabitant or member of the historical Aragonese community, or the minority Romance idiom (the Aragonese language) developed from Vulgar Latin in the Pyrenean valleys and spoken today by several thousand people.
- Aragonese — A woman originating from the Aragon region; the feminine form of the term aragonez. In comparative linguistics, it denotes the Aragonese language, a member of the Western Iberian language group, recognized as the region's own tongue. As an adjective, it describes feminine entities such as a historical dynasty, a cultural tradition, or a settlement in northern Spain.
- Aragonite — A mineral from the natural carbonate class, representing an unstable crystalline form of calcium carbonate and a high-pressure polymorph of calcite. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, frequently forming long prismatic crystals, acicular aggregates, or specific encrustations such as flos ferri, and constitutes the primary mineral component making up the nacre of mollusk shells and fine pearls.
- Aragonite variant — An archaic or unconventional spelling and morphological variant historically used for the mineral aragonite, through erroneous alignment with the feminine gender of its region of origin (Aragon/Aragonia). Although modern scientific and lexical norms have enforced the masculine/neuter form aragonit, this feminine form can appear sporadically in early literature translations or historical travelogues.
- Aramaic — A woman who belonged to the ancient Semitic people of the Arameans; the feminine form of the term arameean. In comparative linguistics, it denotes the Aramaic language, a member of the Northwestern Semitic language group.
