Okay, I'm doing a project for French, and I'm supposed to hunt down exceptions to rules in the French language. One rule I'm determined to figure out is the rule that all words ending in EAUX (plural) are masculine. My teacher confirmed that there are at least two exceptions. (words that end in EAUX and are feminine)

Does anyone happen to know of the words that fall into this exception?

Thanks in advance to anyone who can point me in the right direction.

PTO: I already have L'eau (les eaux)

No, it deals specifically with nouns ending in EAU, that are famine, since its a widely accepted rule that EAU = Masculine.
