Rare enough to double-check
hommasse is uncommon French outside the top frequency list, classed as anadjective, transcribed \ɔ.mas\. Rarity is why readers land here mid-draft. Gloss: "Qui ressemble, qui tient plus de l’homme que de la femme, par l'allure, les manières, en parlant d'une femme.".
hommasse has no tracked misspelling variants, which points to an orthography that plays by predictable French rules. It is not paired with a close-neighbour confusable in our dataset, a sign it's visually distinctive enough not to be mixed up with another word.
No explicit etymology string is stored for this entry, so its spelling pattern is best understood through pronunciation rather than a traceable origin. The correct French form is hommasse, spelled H-O-M-M-A-S-S-E.
