Eh-feer-myay is a French pronunciation of 'infirmier'. The French word is a masculine noun whose definite article is 'le'*['the'], and whose indefinite article is 'un'['a, one']. It means '[male] nurse'.

A female 'nurse' is 'infirmière'. It's a feminine noun whose definite article is 'la'*, and whose indefinite article is 'une'. It's pronounced 'eh-feer-myehr'.

*The vowels 'e' of 'le' and 'a' of 'la' drop when their nouns begin with vowels. The temporary nature of the drop is indcated by an apostrophe: 'l'infirmier' and 'l'infirmière'.
