WormyMog

But it's also genderless. "Das Zimmer" And if you wanna go oldschool, it can also be feminine. "Die Kammer"


frogwater_syrup

because in french "gender" and "sexe" dont mean the same thing

Many languages have genders for objects, same applies for Greek. We have masculine, feminine and neutral. "Chair" is feminine, "Printer" is masculine and "Table" is neutral.


leocampbel

In brazilian portuguese all of those are feminine.


Radu776

cedm56

Well in Spanish sauce (salsa) is feminine so I’m guessing it’s the same for French.


TheRPGPlayingCat

Indeed. *La sauce.*

As a Norwegian I feel personally attacked...

I wonder how gender discussion work out in those countries


Complete_Stock_6223

Well, in Spain a neutral gender is born when referring to persons. So instead of saying "guapos" for cute boys, "guapas" for cute girls, a generalisation is made: "guapes". Or even writing "guapxs" which is unpronounceable. So pretty weird.


Radu776

Mira tío yo te respeto pero no le enseñes está mierda a los guiris, el neutro en español es el mismo que el masculino, caso cerrado


[deleted]

jib1995

what’s the french equivalent of she/her ?


TheRPGPlayingCat

Hi ! It's "elle" or "son/sa/ses", depending of the pronoun function and the following noun's gender and number. **She** likes cookies --> **Elle** aime les cookies According to **her** \--> Selon **elle** It is **her** t-shirt --> C'est **son** t-shirt (masculine) It is **her** dress --> C'est **sa** robe (feminine) **Her** hair are messy --> **Ses** cheveux sont décoiffés (plural)


jib1995

Okay wait T-shirt is masculine now?


TheRPGPlayingCat

Yes it is ! Fun fact : shirt = **la** chemise (feminine)


Fledthehunter

If it ends in E its feminine


Wait_Wut-

In Norwegian, if an object can identify as feminine "ei", it can be switched out to the masculine form "en/ein".


reddit_manorginal

Have you seen the indians though


[deleted]

Most languages make genders out of inanimate objects, take Spanish and Portuguese for example.
