“La llamaría, pero no contesta.” “La llamaría, pero no contesta.” Hola, I’m confused. I would/should/could call her but she doesn’t answer. If he called and she didn’t answer it seems “La llamé, pero no contesta” makes more sense. Muchas gracias, Shirley.

"-a" endings in Spanish nouns

What is the origin of the curious fact that certain Spanish words that end in "-a" and can refer to both male and female persons, never developed an "-o" ending to denote a male individual specifically? For example:

electricista, dentista, recepcionista.

Same meaning without “se”? María te habría prestado el dinero ________ en dos semanas. María would have lent you the money as long as you had given it back within two weeks.mientras tú se lo habrías devueltomientras que se lo hubieras devuelto. Hi, would the meaning be the same if “se” was omitted? With “se” does it actually mean “returned it to her”? Thanks, Shirley.
