Gender in Latin: Masculine and Feminine Magister Henderson Latin I

Grammatical Gender Gender is a grammatical concept that shows a distinction between masculine and feminine. Gender correlates with biological sex (a distinction between male and female); that is: masculine words tend to describe males and feminine words tend to describe females. However Latin uses masculine and feminine gender to describe many object that lack biological sex characteristic and are neither male or female.

Latin Noun Endings The following ending are used by nouns and adjectives to show gender: There are other ending we’ve seem so far, like the plural ending in –īs that is commonly used with prepositional phrases. This and other endings will be explained soon.

About Gender The gender of an adjective will change to match its noun: There is also a neuter gender, that is: a gender that contains words that are neither masculine nor feminine. The word nōmen (“name”) is one neuter word that we have already seen. We will encounter more such words later.
