’s the difference between ھԳéԻ ھԳée?
The word ھԳé is traditionally used to refer to the man that a person is engaged to be married to (the groom-to-be). Գé is traditionally used to refer to the woman that a person is engaged to be married to (the bride-to-be).
However, the spelling ھԳé—with just one e—is sometimes used without reference to gender.
The two words are pronounced exactly the same. Their different endings are due to the fact that they derive from French, which has grammatical gender, meaning that some words end differently depending on whether they are applied to men or women (with e being the feminine ending). This happens in a few other pairs of words in English, like blond and blonde, though in many cases the term without the e has become largely gender-neutral. This is the case with both blond and ھԳé.
Similar to some other words derived from French (like éܳé), they are sometimes written without accents, as fiance and fiancee.
