Spanish family words game

Nineteen family words, each carried with its article, la madre and el padre, because the article is part of what you need to remember. The plural often defaults to the masculine: los padres covers parents as readily as fathers.

Questions

Why is every word shown with el or la?

Because learning padre without el teaches you half the word. Spanish nouns carry gender, and the article is the cheapest way to record it.
