Funfact about grammatical genders: It's not like the German fork is a woman, the woman is just in the same grammatical category as a fork. These categories actually had a deeper meaning in Proto-Indoeuropean like 8000 years ago, but novadays it's quite esotheric why x is that and y is that. What is important is that these objects DO NOT have a Gender the way people have. Nobody speaking a gendered language was ever like "the sun is a boy/girl?", that's just language learners.

@alexandrub8786 Год назад

Ok. But what if your are a weirdo who wants to name an object like a ship,car or a mansion that you own? Wouldn't you use a more feminine sounding one for the feminine, male one for masculine and whatever for neutral/neuter?

@janach1305 Год назад

English used to have grammatical gender just like German and other Indo-European languages, but lost it in the shift from Old English to Middle English. It is thought that with Saxons and Norse and Norman French all struggling to understand one another, it was easier to drop grammatical gender altogether. I think it is unfortunate that the word “gender” has become a substitute for “sex” in English. I have always said that words have gender and people have sex. Alas, that’s not the way it is any more, and it is too late to change back. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Americans try to defend themselves about how Britain made up these things. But it's not about who made them up, but who still uses them. Britain still uses the Imperial system sometimes, and some Brits do say soccer and use MDY like its the international standard when it isn't. But not everyone though.
