Ah. yes.
So,
anthère would be acceptable for another user than me
(well is actually acceptable since that is the case)
but
ant'here would not be acceptable ?
?!?
You may have noticed that I tend to be one of those people here who
enjoys playing with words. :-) To say that we do not accept ant'here
is very close to saying "qu'on accepte pas de fourmis ici".
As for RK's difficulty with your gender, on the one hand we have the
fact that "anthère" is a feminine noun in French to represent the male
part of a plant, as does the corresponding English "anther". No wonder
he's confused!!! :-)
